Best Speakers?

[Volcom240sx]

well in the process of buying better then the speakers that are in my car. i have no idea what is even in there probably something cheaper and worse then stock hah..

but give me some ideas of what i should buy please...

nothing too expensive nothing too cheap something long lasting and worth it.

thanks guys.. :ddirtyd::D

[SHIFT_2DRIFT]

pioneer or alpine or JBL

[s13gtr]

alpine type r 6.5 components

alpine type r 12" sub

this is some of the best sounding shit and thats their second best stuff. their baller shit is the type x which used to be called f1 status. theyre not too expensive. 150ish for the components and 250ish for the sub. you can find em used and cheaper. check ebay and craigslist

[Volcom240sx]

Ooo funny thing is that i can get subs without having to setup the wiring someone already had a system in there hah but..no subs right now..

[Photonic]

If you put subs in a 240 I will drive to your house and beat you. The bad way

[Bware113]

Pioneer, Kenwood, & Infinity
Alpine is the best, hands down for me.

jvc? Sony?

[justjuiceit]

What kind of head unit are you running? Are you running something besides the factory amps?

[TheChosenOne]

take all music wires out of ur car, and use a ipod with head phones

[DjTechNick]

best speakers are hand made from 14 year old japanese girls hair, woven together with panda jizz, and gold wire that ninja's have stolen from old women; before cutting off thier heads and wailing hard on electric guitars. no, but for real, its really up to how much money you want to spend. decent speakers for a car like polk audio, memphis audio, are pretty affordable. don't get fooled by the expensive kenwoods, and alpine speaker. its in a car! If you have anything more than stock exhaust your wasting your time. unless you just like to listen to music in your driveway while playing basketball. oh yeah, your mom just yelled; dinner is ready.

[JJ Alfano]

pioneer makes the best cheap stuff, go with them, they are the blue speakers, espiau had the whole rx7 decked out with pioneer and it sounded really good

[DjTechNick]

x2^

[Wes]

I'm generally very loyal to anything Kenwood, atleast, any kenwood audio shit I've had, Ive never had a problem with it.

Their 6.5 components don't sound bad for the money, but I'll also agree on some Infinitys or Alpines.

Just get components up front, and some decent coaxials for the rear.

As for subs, I love my Alpine Type-R 10' (Which is also for sale in a ported box)
And as much as I hate Audiobahn shit, my friend Josh used to have one 12" that would hit harder than cars with 4x the speakers.

Wow you are clueless... on this one.... I use to be in the high end electronics biz... I have sold most every brand and from years of experience and know how... I put nothing but JL in my car.... Pioneer for Headunits

[Keith]

Ive also heard and had in my car, evrything from Sony to Pioneer, to JL and RF, it depends on the unit and what music you tend to listen too

[Elizabeth Reed]

yes my RF t2 < w7 lol com on man its a SQ sub

[Turboboxer]

Not just subs man their mid range stuff images like no other car audio brand.... They don't have bright ear peircing tweets they are smooth and controlled... same with the mid bass

[Elizabeth Reed]

rainbow offers all of that lol as well as RE audio.

Not reall it just comes down to if you know what fidelity is or if you care about it....

You want bump in trunk plenty of people do that... you want accurate... that is totally diff:goodjob:

Rainbow.... I do not know them... I do IT now so I have been out of that biz for a while.... They maybe alright... never heard...

[Elizabeth Reed]

yeah im not into it anymore. i just always found JL stuff to be overpriced and not worth it when i could spend half the money and get better sounding set up

[Keith]

I normally use Kenwood, theyre pretty good for the price

[Devious Furlong]

If you put subs in a 240 I will drive to your house and beat you. The bad way


And I'll after you beat them I'll give them cigar burns.

[Elizabeth Reed]

I can never understand this logic.

If you're trying to make a car slick, and drive it everyday, why wouldn't you want some good audio in it?

stop sayin shit when i say it

[Wes]

stop sayin shit when i say it

Wait, did you say the same thing?

I'm high right now.
Sorry.

[rtrhead]

hybrid legatia three-ways powered by arc audio mini amps and an RE 8" sub powered by a modest memphis amp. dont even bothere with the others if your looking for weight savings as pioneer , alpine and the like are very heavy components.

[Elizabeth Reed]

ah no iwas wanting to say that.

MY DD IS MY DRIFT MOBILE SO I CANT HAVE ANY LUXURIES!!!!!!

[Wes]

ah no iwas wanting to say that.

MY DD IS MY DRIFT MOBILE SO I CANT HAVE ANY LUXURIES!!!!!!

[down_shift]

MY DD IS MY DRIFT MOBILE SO I CANT HAVE ANY LUXURIES!!!!!!

um no. I know some very competitive drift cars with subs.

[Elizabeth Reed]

i was being sarcastic sir

[down_shift]

ahh nvm. I cant read all the boring posts in these threads.

[Elizabeth Reed]

yeah and i was trying to get at how people rip out everything of their daily driver's, for no reason. but oh well.

glad we got that settled, shit coulda been tragic

Fail statement... Loud does not equal better...

[Cameron.]

Roadmaster speakers are the best.

[Buccaneer_9]

I like Infinity a lot. Always use them in my cars.

They have several price points: Reference, Kappa, & Kappa Perfect I think. Check them out, you'll be impressed.

I am 32 and been doing car audio for a long time, and if you want good quality for a cheap price I would recommend this company call Total Mobile Audio or TMA. The co. is owned by JL Audio, but its much less expensive. The company was started by the guy that started rockford fosgate when it was at its best. I have 2 sets of the 6.5 comp. and they are as good as any but not quite as expensive.

X2... these guys made some good stuff when I was JL dealer... Ran a bunch of their amps on Pioneer subs and they were :goodjob:

[Volcom240sx]

well since i have a three inch exhaust now..loud does seem to be one of the best options to hear the radio..

[Turboboxer]

[iluvcumming]

I've got pioneer 6.5's up front. They're blue. IDK the model number though. They have two tweeters in em. As far as bass... I've got a 12" can't remember the brand, but people give an approving nod when they see it. Then I've got an 1800watt Kenwood amp. The amp's where it is. I had this same sub powered by some shat 1000 watt amp and it didn't bump for shit. This is my DD, so don't dog for having a system. I can rattle paper inside other people's cars assuming the windows are open and facing. LMK if you wanna see the setup. I'll take pics.

[Wyluliraven]

I've got MB Quartz in my VW. Going on seven years now. Flawless sound from the components. For subs, I'm running JL Audio 12W3 x2, again, flawless after almost seven years.

Both are powered by Alpine V power amps, and I run an Alpine headunit. I would not trade my system for anything else. Unless someone offered me newer MB Quartz, Alpine and Focal equipment.

[Goldkouki82]

I have kenwood's in front and rockford's in rear and for the money it sounds great w/ stock s14 amplifier
