Time for some new speakers

[Francos Accord]

Well, the original 20 year old speakers in my car took a crap on my stereo, they all rattle to the point were no audio can be heard, and my front passenger speaker cuts out. What can be causing that? Also what are good, but cheap speakers to put in my car? Preferably under 100 dollars if possible...

[ghettogeddy]

for 4 or for 2

[Francos Accord]

Unfortunately, all 4

[ghettogeddy]

lx, lxi

6.5 front and rear
or 6x9's in the rear

My front two stockers just blew this past week, and I got some Kickers. Very good speakers for the money ($70). I have Xplod's in the back, which are way better, though way more expensive...

[ghettogeddy]

wait yoir sonys were more then the kickers

[Francos Accord]

Is there a port for a sub in the back of the stock lx radio?

you still need to run it to some kind of crossover before it goes to a sub amp, use something like a basic passive crossover network, some of them have high level in already

how are you keeping mids from going to your sub?
they will muddy the sound

My amp has crossover built in and I believe most of them are.

edit: beaten

the one i have has a lot better adjustment then a simple switch, it also takes the sum of both front speakers and creates the sub base output at a higher output voltage then input, built in preamp. I have an original bazooka tube from the early nineties, with some reinforcements to the tube and a proper crossover it has a great sound in the hatch. the new tubes are pretty much junk

[charliekuney]

Yeah, my 5x9 Xplod's were $150 a piece and the 5" Kickers were like $70 for the pair.

5x9 thats why they were so much lol the rear is a 6x9 and are a lil more common then a 5x9

i woudl almost never pay that much for a sony product
not sayign there bad
but theres way better out there for 150

hell you could have goten a killer component set for that price

Frankly, if you've just destroyed your stock speakers, then I would go out and find ANY 4 name brand speakers within your budget. The difference from what you had will be so vast that nitpicking about all the possible speakers on an otherwise stock system seems a little futile to me.
