are the Alpine SPR-175A good speakers? i know someone with alpines and they bump hella nice but i dunno what model he got, im willing to pay up to $300-$350 for speakers
personally, i like infinities... inexpensive, and high quality... i've never seen the alpines, but i've heard them from a distance (like 10 yards... so it don't count, really), but even where i was standing they were clear for bein in a car... one thing about the infinities (well, the reference i have, i won't speak for others because i've never heard or seen them) is the hold up very well... i had like 100 watts RMS goin to just one 6.5 and it held up, and played very smoothly... you can get the components at www.justcarspeakers.com for like $140, and you can get kappa 3 ways (6x9) for about the same price... top that off with an alpine, kenwood, panasonic, jvc, or higher end pioneer, and you have a killer system to build off of
you can fit 6x9 on the back if you have stock adapter plate. otherwise it will be custom work.
i have alpine speakers, actually i have everything alpine. i like the brand name. don't buy it at your local dealer. they will charge you arm and a leg.
i got all my stuff of ebay.
i have sps-1763S speakers or something like that. they are not type R. i have type S theme in a car.
but even this speakers hit nice. i am running them of 4x50 rms watt alpine amp.
you can get nice stuff for $425 on ebay.
you don't have to stick with alpine. I heard infinity and i like them too. you just have to go to your local audio store and listen to some nice speakers.
yeah i know some guy whos really good friends with the son of the owner of Stereo king, so i can get some hella nice stuff for $400 he says cuz he'll hook me up, but yeah i wont limit to alpines its just taht i've heard some guy who has alpines and it bumps really nice, just like i want it.
but i will definately look at other speakers like infinity's, there 6 x 9 3 way loudspeaker looks promising kind of, i know they hook up there speakers to an amp so, maybe i'll just get one for my speakers too i dont know.
hmm i went to car toys and magnolia hi fi and there were some alpines for $80 for a pair, they sounded ok, but i dont think there was enough bass, i wonder why, i want speakers with a little more bass or will it sound better in a car cuz the room was bigger?
You should get some speakers w/ good highs and get subs for bass
yeah thats probably the best thing to do, the alpines i looked at had some pretty nice highs and stuff, i'll see what i can get at stereo king, i can probably get them at warehouse price with free install.
For a deck, id go with Pioneer or Alpine. Ive had them both, and ive also had Sony, JVC and Kenwood. The sonys sucked (had 3, none worked without some kind of problem, sounded good tho) the JVC was decent (had 2, both got stolen) but didnt sound as good as the alpine or Pioneer. Alpine sounded the best, I like the Pioneers value and bullet-proof reliability as well.
:smokin:
damnit, $425 was an estimate, but i only have $344 cuz apparently i dont get payed for most of this week until next week because of the time they make the checks, so next week i'll have a nice fatass paycheck so i'll end up having around $600+
DONT BUY SONY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SONY SUCKS MAJOR ASS. GO WITH PIONEER (MY PERSONAL FAVORITE) OR ALPINE DECK AND MIDS

but where do i put the tweeter :(
what about these? im gona go to stereo king today and see if they have ones as nice as taht for as good as a deal, if not then i'll get 2 pairs of those and then next week i'll hook mahself up with a deck from stereo king(i get discount)
thas a good deal, put the tweeters on the pillar, theyll sound good and theyre loud as hell
make sure you get an expensive deck... with out that, ur kinda screwed no matter what speakers you get. its like having a 4 cylender in a Mc Laren. every thing else looks good and feels good, but there isnt a good amount of power...or sound quality.

on the pillar? i dont know what u mean :(
p.s. im down to $294, but by next thursday i'll have like $500+
the A pillar is the bar that holds the windshield on the sides...
Travis
ok thanks dxhatchback
yeah i went and checked out some speakers at stereo king, the best ones i found for my price range were clarion SRR 1683, they were $129 a pair and $45 a pair for installation. they had some pretty good bass and all, im just gonna wait to buy so i can go with mah friend and i can probably get free installation or something
also what do u guys think of this deck
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=1947176721
is clarion any good with decks?
LOL my brother has the same deck hahahaha i didnt even notice until i showed him and he said... its mine! and i was like NO I WANT IT BUY IT FOR ME AND I GIVE U $$ PLZ cuz i dont have bank account and hes like...no its MINE! and he said u cant have the same deck as me, and i was like, holy sh*t it is the same one u have lol...
ugh i went to car toys again and i guess i cant get 6x9's in the rear = blah.... but i ran into some alpine SPS16295 they were pretty descent, $80 a pair, but i'd like to spend like $150 a pair on some alpines so i can get some really nice ones but i guess tahts not gonna happen.
ALPINE TYPE R's!!!!!!!!! r sweettttttt VERY GOod SPEAKERS
all i must say my friends is that the god of all head units....:bow:the Pro Audio DXZ825:bow: cackles at all your futile attempts at finding a better cd player.......muwhahahahahhaha, ahem no but for real it's really off the hook, plays everything cd's mp3's cdr/ws, u can hook up mp3 to it, it has an lcd display, u can even change the color to match your gauges:bow:, i think it does like 54 watts or whatever u measure it in times 4, i forget, i just know the equalizer makes everything sound freakin ridiculous, u shall hear me blasting Hernan Catteneo - Satellites down your blox hehe, retail $300 (gotta get that hook up!)
Well my alpine CDA-7893 is 60x4 watts. I would definitly say that it is the clearest shit you have heard. Everyone always asks how I get my stero to sound so crystal clean... I always tell them... its the combination of my deck and my tweeters. Without either one it wouldnt sound as good. So if I were you I would go out and buy a $200 alpine deck, a set of infinity componets for the front, and a set of 6 1/2 inch Infinity 3 ways for the rear. You should be able to get all of that for around $200 for a total of $400 (speakers/deck). Then if you get enough money buy a 12inch sub in box w/ 200w+ amp. You should build up and get it slowly so you can buy better products instead of rushing everything and getting crap. Be patient.
INFINITY KAPPAS!!! :super: i love these speakers, they rule. my car is gonna be pure infinity kappas, eventually.... i actually have a pair of 6.5" 2-way Infinity Kappas laying around, i had them in my '87. but my '88 has stock 6x9's..., and i don't have a deck yet(it's pretty far down on my list of stuff to do..., kindof)
