I have a pickup with a small cab so i don't have much room to work with. I have a box on the floor in the back seat with two 6x9's that are hooked up to an amp that puts out more power then i'm using. I was wondering if any one could suggest a speaker that i could put in the back speaker openings. There were 6x8's in there stock but I know and i want to put a pair of 6.5's or 6's or something liek that in there. The amp that i have is putting 180 watts per chanel at 4 ohms and 230 at 2. The 6x9's pull 90 per speaker so i'd liek something that pulled around 90 so i wouldn't have to run another amp i cluld just run 4 speaks on one amp. I'm open to any brands models under or around 75$. Also help on where to find the speakers would be appreciated.

6.5's can pe put in a 6x8 hole...look for my thread for my truck, you should know the name. i put 6.5's in a 6x9 hole.

I know they can and even if they could i'm a good metal worker and i'd get them to work. BTW i have the same vehicle as you only 4 years older and a 4 cylender. I was wondering what good speakers aer i don't need and installition tips. Thank You though.

I was wondering if any one knew any thing about the alpine 6.5" spr-17ls component speaker i'm intereasted in buying them and was wondering weither or not their good?

the type-r's are decent speakers, I would take the cdt cl-61a before them though

Yeah, either the Alpines or go for some RE components... Depends on your budget. I need to get an amp on my CDTs to see how they really sound... the tweets sound nice now that I have them balenced.

you will find that good components need a fair amount of power, min of 50 watts/ch RMS ..... 75-100 would be better.

How Much and wher can i find some of thoes cdt Components. I have enough power to power a speaker up to 90 rms. The alpin typr-r's that i was looking at were 134.99 so if the cdt are very cloes to that i'd most likely get them, I've heard their good.

find djdilliodon on AIM, he's authorized for CDT and I think those ones are right around 130

Well the only thing is i don't know any thing about the cdt comps are they really that much better the alpine. I know i'll like the alpine cause my friend has a pair like them. If i can get tehm for the same prive I won't mind either proll the cdt if they are better.

You'll have to email Don (islandsound1@yahoo.com) or find him on AIM. He'll give you some quotes on what he has at the moment. If he has some, he'll tell you the price.

Thank You for refering me to don at island sound. He helped me make the speaker choice i have mabe decided to go with the cdt's.

awesome... good choice Bob. My 5.25" have reasonable mid bass just off deck power, which is kinda amazing. Get an amp on it, and you'll be really happy


slightly related question... why does CDT make their woofers with the silver bullet center pole exposed? Doesn't that decrease the cone area as much as a coaxial would?

I'm amping them i just wondering if they are gonna have really responsive, not necessarily loud but good bass? Also is the rms per speaker or per set?
