Speaker Reccomendations

This is your place for alarms, remote starters, to brag about your system, exaggerate your db levels, or simply ask questions for stock or aftermarket audio. No Flames! (except from roasted amps)

stock head unit doesn't put out very clean power. i would look into infinity.. but you will notice a nice difference with an aftermarket HU

alpine type R.. hands down one of the best buys for the price.. well you can get into their expensive models.. but they dont sound that much apart from each other.. (ie.. type r vs type X)

components are always better, but more expensive.

So, here's what i'm thinking.

Front:
INFINITY 50.9CS 5.25" 255W 2-WAY Component

Rear:
INFINITY KAPPA 693.7I 6X9" 3-WAY Component System
Rear Tweeter:

Infinity 10.9t 150W


Would everything fit? (I know I would have to take the stock tweeters out of the platform and put the new ones in.)


Think that would be a good system?
