Greg Clement (November 8th, 2009) STRENGTHS: everything! WEAKNESSES: NOT Installer friendly. The magnets are so big, and run so deep. When trying to install them in my new car they didn't fit! So I dissapointingly had to go with another choice REVIEW: I LOVE these speakers, excellent output,balance with the external crossovers, and overall look.    rocgalant (February 26th, 2009) STRENGTHS: Loud and clear. WEAKNESSES: Extremely large speaker basket. I had bottom mount them to get them onto my rear deck. REVIEW: Excellent speakers. I use these on my rear deck for the bass and polk DB651 in front for mid/high. I ran them at full freq before I installed my amp and they were loud and clear throughout the freq range and still great now that I installed my amp. People sit in my car and keep thinking I have subs. They are really loud and really clear.    Eric (November 13th, 2008) STRENGTHS: They hard on the bass and can supply the mids and highs. WEAKNESSES: You need an amp to get the full potential. REVIEW: My friend has these in his 1994 Plymouth Breeze. He got about 5 grand stolen out of his car with 5 subs and 4 speakers. he now replace the rear spaces with a pair of these bad boys. And holy shit do they hit! and right now all he has is an alpine deck and an alpine amp powering these bitches! and some tweeter in the door custom installed but these speakers are freakin awesome! I'm buy a pair for my truck.    Prashant D (August 16th, 2008) STRENGTHS: Loud/clear/heavy beats. Less distortion when at higher volume also (though cant hear at that level for long). WEAKNESSES: just started using, so NONE that i know of.. REVIEW: absolutely the best audio speakers that i have tested and installed on my car. I used to have JBL car speakers before this and I must say that these Polk MOMO sound absolutely better. I listen to rock/pop/hiphop mostly and the beats are crisp and clear. In fact, a friend of mine asked me if I had installed a Subwoofer after listening to the bass reproduction. This has been installed with a 350W 2 Ch SONY EXPLOD AMP and I am happy to have installed it.    Mike (May 13th, 2008) STRENGTHS: They had as had as some 8 inch subwoofers and it still delivers the mids and highs. I love Dynamic Balance. WEAKNESSES: Soon as I buy a 2nd pair 2 weeks later one of the speakers from the 1st pair starts getting bad and the warranty is out. The woofer has a little rattle coming from the voice coil REVIEW: Best speaker I've came by. You don't have to put a amp on the speakers. They still work very good if you have a receiver with a good signal processor or an EQ. The speakers are so good that I got another pair and I'm thinking bout getting 1 more pair or I'll go with the 6.5 Polk/MOMO componant system. I just hate one is going bad now after the warranty just expired.    Mike (May 9th, 2008) STRENGTHS: Clean, clear, powerful sound! WEAKNESSES: Bass distorts a little bit when really cranked up on the volume! But Just turn down bass on the deck and its fine! REVIEW: Great speakers!!! Everyone says how crisp and clear they sound! Right Price! Look Good!    Pringle (March 6th, 2008) STRENGTHS: Quality sound, I can hear every word of every song clearly. WEAKNESSES: They don't tell you, you need an amp in order to have these babies reach their full potential. REVIEW: Really good set of speakers, if you purchase an amp.    Philip (February 4th, 2008) STRENGTHS: Loud loud loud WEAKNESSES: None thus far. REVIEW: I just put these speakers in a 1977 Lincoln, my setup right now is these, the PolkMMC650's, a JBL1004 amp, an Alpine CDA-9886 headunit and all Kicker wire. These are the first speakers ive had after market, and i must say, Polk, you have a lifetime customer, these are the best speakers for the price, period, if you have even considered buying these speakers, do it now. side note, if you want bass out of a set of speakers, your not gonna get good quality... buy these speakers and get a sub or 2.    Zulqarnain Khan (August 10th, 2007) STRENGTHS: Sensitive Acoustics, Well Defined Sounds, WEAKNESSES: One needs to buy an amplifier to have a near perfect experience. REVIEW: Simply a treat to listen to. Great performance. Great Value for money.    jamie (July 7th, 2007) STRENGTHS: theyre polk-'nuff said WEAKNESSES: have to take a sawz-all to my rear deck i think, but thats just because oldsmobile couldnt measure correctly-maybe thats why they dont make cars anymore....hmm.... REVIEW: simply amazing....best for the money available-unless you have 899.00 to drop on the upgraded component set. ive ran polk in my house for years but was a little sceptical about their car audio-no more. to those complaining about distortion/low bass: theese arent made to run off your 25/50 peak watt head unit. not enough power to a speaker will ruin it waaaay before too much power will. remember, theese are polk products, not walmart sony crap, etc. throw AT LEAST 100 watts rms at them before you write negative reviews. they nearly drown out the twin momo 10s in my trunk eating 4000 watts-and no, im not kidding. go buy theese speakers now, lol    Kris (May 9th, 2007) REVIEW: some of the best 6x9's ive ever heard hooked up to an amp....very impressed....my pioneer 4x6's cant be heard up front anymore...those are getting switched out too now....    BILL (May 7th, 2007) STRENGTHS: CRYSTAL CLEAR HIGHS.YOU CAN HERE EVERY DETAIL. BASS IS TIGHT AND HARD HITTING. EVERYBODY SHOULD HAVE THESE,YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!! WEAKNESSES: HARD TO FIT,HAD TO CUT DOOR PANEL A LITTLE FOR ROOM,ALSO EVEN WITH SPACER I HAD TO USE A DREMEL TO TRIM PART OF THE BASKET SO WINDOW GEAR DOES NOT RUB,SORRY POLK,BUT IT WAS WORTH IT. REVIEW: I JUST INSTALLED THEM IN MY 2007 RAM AND I'M RUNNING A ROCKFORD FOSGATE AMP 103 RMS PER CHANNEL.THESE ARE HUNGRY FOR POWER,SO GET A BIG AMP.THEY ARE CLEAR AND HIT BASS VERY HARD!!!!! I LOVE THEM!! NOW I WANT TO SET IN MY TRUCK AND JAM ALL THE TIME!!!    derek (March 1st, 2007) STRENGTHS: No distrotion. Be sure to have clean power to push these WEAKNESSES: None so far REVIEW: I bought two sets of these and put them in a fiberglass enclosure on my wakeboard tower. These things are loud. Im pushing just over 100 watts per speaker and they sound great.    nagesh (February 14th, 2007) REVIEW: great speaker which gives ever good out put.    Mike (December 15th, 2006) STRENGTHS: Superior quality, clarity, durability WEAKNESSES: Might need modification to make them fit (big baskets), need LOTS of power, I can't hear anymore REVIEW: I've own a couple sets of these speakers. I've had one set for about 3-4yrs and they are still rocking out. Bottom line is they are awesome. From experience I will say that you need to give these speakers power if you want to see full potential. I've had them behind some decent 40x4 and 50x4 amps an while they sound ok they still break up in the highs. I installed my latest set behind an Alpine MRV-F345 75x4 and there is absolutely no comparrison. These speakers will take all the power that amp and my alpine head unit will throw them....seriously..not joking....and you won't hear one crackle. So do yourself a favor and if your gonna drop the cash on these babys get some power to run or you may be disappointed.    patrick cavaco (August 9th, 2006) STRENGTHS: Easy Installtion, LOUD, Crisp, Affordable......Doesn't Distort At All....Perfect For Hip Hop Music ,The Speakers Just Match The Music I Play WEAKNESSES: None Really, But I Don't Use These Speakers For Bass But The Bass Distorts A Lil Bit When I Hit My Max Region REVIEW: The Best Coaxial Speakers I Eva Found, Couldn't Match 4way Pionners,Or Any 3 Way JBL,MTX,Boston Acoustics Or Alpine Nothing, Those Otha Speakers Can Have A Higher Peak Power But They Are Nothing Compared To These...Best 6x9's To Buy.....    Mike (June 18th, 2006) STRENGTHS: The design of the speaker very hefty. Mids and highs sound great. I do like the inline crossovers myself. WEAKNESSES: Instalation. If you have a hack saw and a pair of pliers you should be set. REVIEW: I just got the speakers and wow. Nothing like i've had before. The weight and size is larger than i expeceted. The size is what caused the most problems. I have a 99 chevy malibu and i had to cut out the openings quite a bit. The screw holes lined up with the existing holes once the cutting was done. So far what i have listened to was very pleasing. I do agree with most other people the highs and mids are great the lows are a little to be disired but thats what subs are for.    dkh (June 8th, 2006) STRENGTHS: mids highs are amazing, good bass too even water resistant so can let it snow on ehm if needed WEAKNESSES: none can tell yet REVIEW: Stereo dude played these instore with just a head unit then 50 watts rms. Sound is amazing compared to the two other kenwoods i heard instore. On the drive to the other location where they were in stock i listened to my old 3-ways to compare them. Upon arrival i installed them in the parking lot and then drove around for 4 hours bought 6 new cds. Hear things never before hearable, simply amazing. Maybe i should bridge my amp and put 100 watts rms to them and crank it.....    Gautam Ballal (May 18th, 2006) STRENGTHS: amazing clarity and awsome bass WEAKNESSES: NONE REVIEW: best 6*9 speakers money can buy seriously i am a car audio freak i keep changing my speakers amps and system very often but there is no match for the polk momo 690 truly amazing clarity great bass trust me there is no reason to even think twice just get these speakers if u have not yet got it u will not be dissappointed i recommend using a good amp it really a difference    Josue (April 13th, 2006) STRENGTHS: Nice Highs And Lows. WEAKNESSES: Magnet a bit too big. REVIEW: They sound awesome even being pushed by a ford graphic equalizer. Can't wait to hook them up to my Eclipse amps.    Josh 1991 Accord (March 21st, 2006) STRENGTHS: Great Looking and sounding so far. Cant wait to hook up to some real power. WEAKNESSES: Basket to big to fit in my Accord but that can be fixed easily with a Plasma Cutter. REVIEW: I just recieved these speakers yesterday and they were so pleasing to look at that i installed them right away to see if they sounded as good as they looked and they exceeded my expectations. I Have them hooked up to my kenwood 50x4 deck right now to break them in and in a few weeks i am going to hook them up to a Rockford 400A4 to realy see what they can do.    sulev (February 16th, 2006) STRENGTHS: Very good balance, sound. High, mid-level is super. WEAKNESSES: Bass in not sufficient to me. REVIEW: I use Blaupunkt Dresden MP3/CD with MMC690 speakers, no extra amp. Sound is quite ok, bass is not "deep" enough for me. But for "deep bass" I need subwoofer presumably.    marcos (February 7th, 2006) REVIEW: They are the best in speakers size 6x9 higt performance and desing    Naïm (November 16th, 2005) STRENGTHS: HIGHS are veryy CRISP and LOUD, DOESNT DISTORT AT ALL WEAKNESSES: bass distort only at high volume(but it is still good) IF NOT AMPLIFIED, consider an amplifier. REVIEW: I only have 1pair of these speakers and are the only speakers in my car powered by a nice head unit only! no external amplifier! and they are LOUD! 1.the highs: are INCREDIBLE, it is so clear and doesnt distort at all(a little when you reach max volume but by the time you reach it your ears will blow off!haha) and remember, im only running a 22x4watts RMS and 50x4watts PEAK, no amplifier, 2.talking about bass: it hits hard compared to lots of other speakers, but I can see that they are really hungry, it does distort at high volume!! hehehe, so as I read lot of reviews, these babies will pump some serious bass if amplified with a good amplifier! witch will be extremely worth it! 3.overall: they are some crazy 6x9 with really wide frenquency response from the highs to the lows* 4.question is : I wonder what would it be if I'm running an amplifier on them if without one it sounds already really nice whitought one? ahhaha    Brian Fleetwood (October 12th, 2005) STRENGTHS: Easy to install in a 04 Accord (dropped right in) Great power handling and a clean sound especially when jamming out to PANIC. WEAKNESSES: Could use more bass without distorting. REVIEW: After I had these speakers installed and turned it up, I was a little disappointed. I expected loud, crystal clear sound with a little thumb after reading all the reviews. Then I realized the amp (75x4) needed some adjusting and sure enough the back channels were turned way down. With the turn of the screwdriver....POW! Everything that was expected came a reality.    Jeffery E Boldman (August 29th, 2005) STRENGTHS: sounds great with digtal system WEAKNESSES: made in china REVIEW: smooth sound tight bass    Alex (August 26th, 2005) STRENGTHS: Amazing sound reproduction and ease of installation and use. No big problems at all! WEAKNESSES: No allen wrench was included in my box to screw these in. I had one in my garage luckily REVIEW: These 6x9's are AMAZING to say the very least. I originally had Sony Xplod 6x9's and the upgrade to these was like going from analog to digital. The difference was simply amazing. I could almost swear there were guitars and drums in my car with me. It is hard to explain, but it's like entering a whole new word from the Sony's. Like the other reviewers say, you hear parts of songs, symbols and guitars you never even knew existed. It's an experience that everyone should get. Polk MOMO 6x9's are simply put the best speakers I have ever listened to in my lifetime.    98 dodge (August 23rd, 2005) STRENGTHS: Any adjective you would want to insert that would describe musical satisfaction could go here. Unbelievable highs, great mids, and wonderful clean bass response. WEAKNESSES: If you are installing in a Dodge Ram 1998 or similiar make model, make sure and use the grills as described in other reviews as a riser. It is quickest/easiest way to install. I used a dremmel tool to cut the grills. REVIEW: WOW! I replaced the original upgraded Infinity system that I thought was OK with the polk 6x9 momo's, along with a 4 channel pioneer amp to power them. My original thought was to put 4 6x9's in the truck (its a quad cab), but after hearing just the 2 front speakers I was totally blown away. I have NEVER heard sound reproduced in a vehicle the way the Polk Momo's can. I have heard parts of songs that I have listened to for 20+ years that I have never heard before. Some highs are ridiculously high and piercing! The low's are truely impressive for 6x9's. I have pushed them fairly hard thinking that they surely cannot take much more power, but to my amazement they can and don't distort. I looked for months trying to decide what to go with,but after reading this page and other reviews decided on Polk Audio. You will not be dissappointed if you go with the momo's, you will be sorry if you don't.    Clifton062 (July 25th, 2005) STRENGTHS: high high's and low lows, super crisp and clear. absolutely no distortion if powered right and set to the right EQ's. WEAKNESSES: i turthfully cant say one bad thing about these 6X9's. only they shake my car and make my rear-view mirror tilt at high-volumes. REVIEW: ok, i am not a paid representative of Polk-MOMO. i just got some of these speakers for my car, i would be wrogn to say these things are the most clearest, crisp, and non-distortioned speakers you can buy. i am quite an audiophile and these things made my and my brother(even more of an audiophile) get goose bumbs on the audio quality of these little 6X9's. Disregard the price, for these speakers can produce such deep bass, it sounds as if you have a 10" sub in the back. and such crisp highs that is sounds as if the artist you are listening to is right in the car with you. forget all other companies, PolkMOMO dominates all others.    Donald (July 15th, 2005) STRENGTHS: Sound quality, build quality, warranty, cosmetics WEAKNESSES: The basket was to0 big to fit in my 6x9 opening, I had to make a few "modifications" to my rear deck to get it in, but it's worth the effort. REVIEW: Before these i had Infinity Reference 6x9's. These complete destroy them both visually and sonically. As so0n as you unwrap them you can tell these behemouths are going to sound go0d. I haven't yet connected my momo amp and i already have to turn these speakers down. Great speakers for the price, can't beat the 3 year warranty, and the quality of materials. I have all polk/momo audio stuff and it sounds great. I would recommend to everyone    potato (May 27th, 2005) STRENGTHS: total bad but look and sound WEAKNESSES: it took three hours before i could start installing them ....i just sat there in amazement REVIEW: my car starts, the engine humes for a minute while the jvc head unit kickes on david bowie, rise and fall of ziggy stardust, i am happy. this cd is as old as i am and it sounded as if dave was sining next to me. i drive on ever so content. i deside to put in the phantom of the opera cd and i am forced to pull the car over. my eyes glase over and drool spills from my mouth. can car audio really sound this clean? ohh it can. after sitting on the side of the road for two hours the sing-a-long gayness had to end so i washed it all down with a healthy portion of nin the downwared spiral and i still have an erection :) bottom line: if you like all base you wont like. but if you like hearing the lyrics and are all about a well rounded system look no forther    TRACE (April 28th, 2005) STRENGTHS: GOOD SOUND WEAKNESSES: HAD TO CUT OUT MY REAR DECK CRAZY STYLE TO GET THESE TO FIT MAKE THESE SMALLER (NOT INSTALLER FRIENDLY BY ANY MEANS)!!!!!!!! REVIEW: SOUNDS GREAT ON ANY TYPE OF MUSIC GREAT BALANCE OF HIGHS AND MIDBASS    RONNIE ROMERO (March 18th, 2005) STRENGTHS: ALOT WEAKNESSES: FEW IF ANY REVIEW: BLOWS DOORS OFF INFINITY ALPINE AND PIONEER THAT I BLEW BEFORE THESE , TOGETHER WITH MY EIGHT TWELVES ANDMY MB QUARTS 5 AND 1/4 S AND JL AUDIO 5 AND 1/4S PLUS TWO SUPER HORNS ,,,SHEEEEET    Gabe (January 22nd, 2005) STRENGTHS: Great Sound. Very crisp sound. WEAKNESSES: Not Enough Bass, but o well i got three infinity tens to do the trick REVIEW: These Speakers Are Great Sounding. I just went and bought these speakers for my little GMC S15 and it sounds great in there. You have to adjust the amount of treble in there because its so little inside but afterwords it sounds great    alpine (November 2nd, 2004) STRENGTHS: The sound, bass, mids and highs are just great WEAKNESSES: Durability, and cosmetics, they ar not raelly good looking REVIEW: I used to have a pair of GRX69 in my rear, the sound is just amazing, they are great, good bass and highs, however as Wissam says, it does happen. I got them from a friend, I tested them and they were OK. I was driving 75 rms to them, and about 2 or 3 months later, the mid and high went dead. I removed them because i bought a new pair. Since i wanted to sell the speakers, i checked them with a multimeter, and i noticed that the impedance of the spekers was ok, so, the problem wasn't the coil. And the cone was ok. So i hooked the power directly to the tweeter and to the mid, bypassing the capacitors. that was it!, it came back to life, THE PROBLEM WAS THE CAPACITOR IN THE MID SPEAKER, I replaced it, and then sold them for almost the ammount i payed for them.    Albert Pine (October 15th, 2004) STRENGTHS: I physically love the sound. I kept screaming I want mo mo. WEAKNESSES: One time it lit my butt on fire. REVIEW: These speakers vibrate very well. I found myself installing them directly under my seat. mmm... I love it.    Phil (August 21st, 2004) STRENGTHS: Very clear, sounds great at all volumes! WEAKNESSES: None that I can find, may like a little more bass, but i think i can get that from my receiver and my amp! REVIEW: These speakers are amazing! I have them put in the rear of my 97 honda prelude and man do they sound great! They are powered from a cheap sony Xplode amp, 60x4, but they still sound way better than anything i have heard! Great Job Polk!    Sanremus (June 28th, 2004) STRENGTHS: Quality in construction & Sound WEAKNESSES: Could get a litle more bass, some people don't like sub's and a litle more bass would come handy. even though not bad at all REVIEW: I had a lot of speakers in a lot of cars, i never ever listen such good quality speakers as the Polkmomo...ok maybe on a good and pricy Bose theather system, but in car audio this is the best you can get and it's not for the buck, i would put this speakers next to some $500 ones and match quality. it's incredible if you don't put your head unit to the max, do it in the midle volume and pay attention to the quality of the sound, it's pure and clear. Congratulations Polk, what a great job.!!    dj speight (June 11th, 2004) STRENGTHS: Tight compact bass notes that do not distort the tweets. WEAKNESSES: Unless your car has a cutout big enough for these speakers you will have to do some cutting( but the sound is well worth a little cutting) REVIEW: I just purchased these speakers from Circuit city. I love there sound it has an all around good Tone. I am running them off a HiFonics gemini 4x50. These are the best sounding speakers I have ever owned.    james (April 25th, 2004) STRENGTHS: clear, can take on other speakers volume and sound quality. like the some pioneer, sony and other cheap brand 6x9, just have a supid loud tweeter, dont even sound like real. WEAKNESSES: Hard to buy in australia. REVIEW: polk products have really good quality, i use a polk bookslef at home, and a old polk 6x9 ex series 2, they are really loud and its not like other speakers, really tweetery, the mid and the high are really balanced out, i really cant wait to get this speaker, cos its really hard to get polk car audio in australia.    james (April 25th, 2004) STRENGTHS: clear, can take on other speakers volume and sound quality. like the some pioneer, sony and other cheap brand 6x9, just have a supid loud tweeter, dont even sound like real. WEAKNESSES: Hard to buy in australia. REVIEW: polk products have really good quality, i use a polk bookslef at home, and a old polk 6x9 ex series 2, they are really loud and its not like other speakers, really tweetery, the mid and the high are really balanced out, i really cant wait to get this speaker, cos its really hard to get polk car audio in australia.    Patrick (March 19th, 2004) STRENGTHS: Great look, 3-way sounds bright and smooth. Durable, well engineered and great warranty. WEAKNESSES: Minimum RMS is too high compared to other brands in this price range. However, supporting a lower RMS only adds value during the transition period between your stock system and an upgraded one. REVIEW: They fit fine in the rear deck of a Honda 2004 Accord with no modifications. Stock system doesn't have enough power to drive these too well, an amplifier is recommended. If you aren't planning on an external amplifier or a new head unit that has a high output you'd be best to stick with the stock speakers. Then again, if you are going to buy these you aren't going to be sticking with a stock setup for all too long - you'll be impressed once installed and cranked up!    Brantley (March 10th, 2004) STRENGTHS: sounded fine when tested. WEAKNESSES: couldn't fit it in the existing panels. REVIEW: the fitting of the bulky bottom of this unit would require some serious mods to any 2003 and newer dodge truck.    Mike (March 6th, 2004) STRENGTHS: VERY loud, very crisp, very clear. Sound excellent even below recomended RMS. You will not be disappointed!! WEAKNESSES: Big baskets!! Get ready to do modifications to get these babys to fit in you plan on using stock mounting locations. REVIEW: I bought a set of Momo 6x9's and a set of Momo 6.75" components for my 1999 Nissan maxima. I have them running off an old Kenwood KAC-744 at 50W X 4 RMS. They are loud, clear, and crisp. Without a doubt these are the best speakers I have ever owned. I have not got this setup to clip or distort before my ears cannot take anymore. They far exceed the quality of the old Db series I replaced. I cannot immagine what the outcome would be with a newer amplifier; although the KAC-744 was produced when an amp was amp.    Wissam (February 26th, 2004) STRENGTHS: VEEERY nice crisp sound when you first install them.... WEAKNESSES: they have a 4 months expiry period when they are used with real power...... who would pay a $199 for speakers if you do not want to connect them to an AMP!!!!! REVIEW: I have been intalling sound systems in my car since 1993 and those speakers were the worst. If anyone would require a proof to what I am saying I can send you pictures and even if you pay for the shipment I would send you the speakers too!!! 4 months ago I went to the states (Fremont California) and decided to buy the MMC690 as I read all the nice reviews you can read on this website. I have installed them with a kicker amplifier that delivers 60 watts per channel (less by 20 watts/channel than what the polk momo MMC 690 could handle). the tweeter and mid range of right speaker went DEAD. then 1 week later the cross over caused a short circuit for the whole sound system. and after two months the tweeter and the midrange of the second speaker went DEAD. Since they are still under warranty I can send them back to FRY's but it will cost me around 150$ and I prefer to throw them away and buy Kenwood or Pioneer speackers as I had better experience with them!!!    Scott (January 22nd, 2004) STRENGTHS: Awsome Speakers, great bass and crisp highs. WEAKNESSES: There are none. One of the best speakers available today. REVIEW: I picked these up on ebay for $150 new, and these have been the best 6 X 9's I've ever had especially for the money. I have them in sealed boxes in my work van made with 3/4" MDF with 2 ounces of polyfill and they sound great. The mid bass and highs are far superior to my pioneer's they replaced. The MOMO design is very cool and overall quality is excellent. Thanks Polk    Duane (January 21st, 2004) STRENGTHS: Great sounding speaker WEAKNESSES: TOO BIG OF A MAGNET!!! used the Car fit guide and said it will work in my side panels of my 97 eclipse hatchback, but it won't fit because of the size of the magnet!!! if this wasn't a problem then would be 5 out of 5 stars! REVIEW: Great sounding speaker, they scream!!! I'm running the MM465's as fronts, and 2 MM124'S as my subs, and the MMC690's hold their own.    Steven Ruiz (January 11th, 2004) STRENGTHS: i love the sound, looks it a tuff speaker you need to get some WEAKNESSES: every one is trying to get a lift from you REVIEW: this is the best speaker ever i like the look the sound is to good    JESUS (October 23rd, 2003) STRENGTHS: SOUND GREAT IN MY TRUCK ALLSO WITH THE 6.5 IN THE REARS OF THE TRUCK. WEAKNESSES: SOME WHAT BIG. REVIEW: THEY ARE GREAT I HAVE THIS SPEAKER IN MY FRONT DOORS OF MY 2001 DODGE RAM THEY SOUND GREAT BUT IT WAS TUFF TO FIT THEM IN I HAD TO MAKE THE GRILLS INTO SPACERS BY CUTTING THEM BUT THEY ARE GREAT.    Aaron (October 2nd, 2003) STRENGTHS: Excellent sound quality and imaging. Focal caliber tweeters. WEAKNESSES: Waaaaay too big basket! REVIEW: Excellent sound quality. Good bass response but their best attribute is the highs. I generally dont like 3 way speakers as they tend to be too harsh for my music (mostly metal), but these are very smooth and clean. There is virtually no distortion and I can distinguish every instrument and have even heard some new things on CD's Ive been listening to for years!! Imaging is quite good for coaxials. The stage is a tad low, about to the top of the dash but separation is great. Overall imaging is as good as you can get without going to separate compnonets. My only complaint is the design of the basket, its huge! I put them in the front doors of my 02 Ram and had to cut the existing 6x9 wholes bigger to fit them. Even with a spacer they barely fit and still slightly rub the window gear when it rolls down. Nothing major, just annoying. Botom line: These sound great. They have detailed mids good imaging and the best highs this side of Focal and MB Quart. The bass is on par for a 6x9 but not awe inspiring. They are the size of a football so be prepared to break out the Sawzall!    andy (September 23rd, 2003) STRENGTHS: this speaker has shown me alot of improvement from the last set i got WEAKNESSES: there is none REVIEW: this has been the best speaker i have ever purchased. i got this speaker from Premium Sound of Alpena Michigan.    andy (September 23rd, 2003) STRENGTHS: it is a peace of crap WEAKNESSES: dont get it REVIEW: this speaker sucks    Josh (August 20th, 2003) STRENGTHS: the look and sound.thes look awsome in person and sound awsome to WEAKNESSES: you have to get out of your car REVIEW: i just got thes from crutchfield and hooked them up and they rock they sound good with rap and rock awsome speaker.i got them hooked up to my alpine indash sound perfect.
