i just got a memphis sub and amp and i want to improve my stock speakers. What type of brand should i look for in the $80-$100 dollar range?

 

phoenix gold RSD65CS comps from ebay. $87 shipped!

what deck do you have? do you have an amp for the front speakers?

 

i just have an amp for the sub, would i need another one for speakers?

 

you don't need one, but a 4 channel will take the sound to another level. i think lightning audio is worth looknig into. it's in that price range. good bang for your buck!

 

how bout these?

since i have memphis sub and amp would it be better to have the same brand or does it not matter?

 

one thing i've learned is never to buy audio from a non authorised dealer. EVER

 

i would suggest amping any speaker you buy. if you plan on just using the power of your deck don't waste money on speakers.

i would suggest a decent set of comps and a nice powerful amp.

use the stock speakers and the rear channel on the deck for rear fill if you want any at all. if you have a powerful enough front stage you won't need rears and it will actually sound better that way. i just bought a set of phoenix gold rsd 6.5 comps and a kicker zx550.2 amp and i love it! :-) i can't imagine anything sounding better for the price they are. they should cost 3X what they cost for the way they sound.

 

those PRs are a decent set

I wouldnt care to much about the unathorized thing being that the set is so cheap
If they mess up or something its not much of a loss

 

meh i don't particularly want to spend 100 bucks every 3 months

 

try elemental designs eDi 6000's go to their site and search forum... i think they r lik $95

 

CDT AUDIO!

 

i seriously don't think you can beat the rsd's for the money. i think they are worth way more than they sell for. they sound absolutely amazing!

 

are pioneer speakers any good?

 

CDT FTW!!!

 

people talk highly of the pioneer rev series.

 

someone has to say this. $100 wtf? get coaxials or save money and get something getter. that amount will not improve the stock speakers, not even close.

 

how much would i have to spend to have a noticable improvement?

 

1 million dollars.

 

haha, i dont think more than $100 is neccesary to improve stock speakers, but i dont know much about speakers so i could be wrong.

 

its not the amount of money that gets what you want. you can make your own set, go active and spend less than 200. on the flip side you can go with an insane 3 way passive set made from rare earth metals and spend 1500. which sounds better is arbitrary but you really do get what you pay for.
