Strength:
MY SUMMARY SAYS IT ALL. THE SPEAKER JUST PERFORMS FLAT OUT.
Weakness:
IF I HAD TO NIT PICK. I WOULD SAY THAT THE AVERAGE CONSUMER KNOW LITTLE ABOUT RMS REQUIREMENTS. @ 50 WATTS RMS PER SPEAKER YOU HAVE TO HAVE AN AMP TO REALLY APPRECIATE THESE SPEAKERS THESE SOUND VERY GOOD. THEY HANDLE A LOT OF POWER SO YOU'LL NEED AN AMP TO PUSH THEM. THE BASS IS VERY SMOOTH AND THETRASITION TO THE HIGHS, JUST AS SMOOTH. I AM PLEASED WITH MY PUCHASE AND THE PRICE I PAID, WHAT A DEAL. I PUSH A PAIR OF TSD 701P 6.75 IN MY REAR DECK PIONEER KNOWS THEIR SPEAKERS. JUST LISTEN AND LEARN. |

Strength:
The power handling seems to be good as far as the RMS maximum that is stated.
Weakness:
I found them to be very trebley. I bought these to replace a buzzy factory door speaker in my Intrepid. The factory speaker produced more bass than the pioneer at most volumes with the 120 watt total power provided by the factory radio. When I listened to these in the showroom they had a subwoofer hooked up and it sounded excellent - better than two other popular brands. I believe this is due to the silky foamy midrange and well defined two tweeter treble. I expected the fit to be somewhat better on the oversized 6" replacement. I didn't want to redrill holes so I had to use a bracket and some clips that were included to change the three screw setup to four. The only fit that allowed me to mount the speakers without trimming the bracket was at a 45 degree angle. It's also not attached quite as tight at the original, but no one is going to be pulling on it behind the factory grille. I'd probably have rated them higher if they were in the $50-79 range instead of the $109 I paid. Similar Products Used: rockford fosgate |
