davidmorgan Unregistered guest | im looking to buy new speakers for my fronts and rear in my explorer. its a 6'8 oval and 5 1/4 round speaker. I'm looking to spend a little more than $100, but i have no idea what brand or model. any suggestions. I want something with strong highs so my W7 doesnt drown them out and u cant hear the words because thats what its doing right now. thanks |

davidmorgan Unregistered guest | okay thanks a lot.. any other suggestions anyone? |

davidmorgan Unregistered guest | I was thinking about maybe going with the 4-way pioneers 6'8's... what is the difference between those and a component set? why is a component set so much more expensive? |

Anonymous | My friend has an explorer with the same size speakers. Hes got all infinity kappas hooked up to a pioneer amp,and a 10" kicker solo baric to a 500/1,It is so loud it almost hurts when he maxed it out.The kappas are gonne be a little more than 100 but yer gonna need somthin like that with a w7,I think the kappas are best for your money. Infinity Kappa 5-1/4 $84.99 http://www.etronics.com/listproducts.asp?manaf=Infinity&rpc=0&catid=355&store= Infinity Kappa 6x8 $84.99 http://www.etronics.com/listproducts.asp?manaf=Infinity&rpc=0&catid=356&store= Look around on ebay and other places those liks are for etronics but they say the speakers are unavalable right now. |

New member Username: Bobo123Post Number: 7 Registered: Jan-05 | I agree with mark s. I would advise you just get a good pair of speakers for the front and screw the back. Leave the factories in the back for rear fill if you must. Get a pair of infinity kappas coaxils in the front to keep it under $100. If your willing to pay extra and amp the front, get a pair of Kappa components($125). Reference components if your realy short on change($90). Stick with 2 way spekers in the back if you insist on buying those. Also if you are willing to spend the money on a W7 then I would suggest spending the money on some good components and an amp. You will be pleased in that desicion. |
