I must say that I was very disappointed with these speakers. They did not even sound as good as my factory speakers. They do not have any bass and i am running plenty of power to them so there should be no excuse. I am going to take them back and find something different. You may laugh but i suggest buying your products at circuit city. I bought these speakers and they told me if I do not like them in 30 days come back and they will give me my money back no problem. Also I went to alot of the stereo shops looking for a head deck and they beat the competitions price on a alpine 7875 by $30.00, I only paid 319.66 installed.

Model Reviewed: 99 Cougar

Strength:

Very clear sounding speakers. Worlds above the commodity speakers. Imaging is adequate although you always know the sound is coming from the speakers. (This may well be the radio head unit too)

Weakness:

A bit short in the bass. In the Cougar, it wouldn't pay to get two sets as I did since the rear speakers do not project as well to the driver and front seat passenger. But all in all, they made a stock 60W radio come alive.

After 2 years of listening, I am pleased with the purchase.

Strength:

Very nice highs and mids

Weakness:

not much bass....

For $100 you can't get mids and highs much better than these polks. Hook up an amp and they scream even louder. Highly recommend adding a sub to your system because these don't put out much bass, but hey if you want good sound you will get a sub anyway. Very good overall sound out of these. Outstanding highs and mids that are put out by a 2 way 5"x7"

Weakness:

Strength:

Great mid & high end. Very accurate sound. Well balanced.

Weakness:

A little low on the bass end but they are only 5" x 7".

Paid $70/pr but would have paid $100 store price.
First installed them in 95 Mustang to replace the
factory coax speakers. Sound was amazing with a factory AM/FM Cassette
with only 20W per channel. I am currently upgrading to a Pioneer DEH-P4000
CD player and they should sound even better.

Pioneer, Sony, Kenwood. Well worth the extra $.

fongule

Strength:

had pretty clear high range

Weakness:

everything elses

when placed side by side with my STOCK chevy speaks they sucked. I took them back. total waste of money, they were highly recomended, and they suck. I spent an hour rippin apart my truck for nothing. The stock speakers sounded much better except for extreme highs, not worth it at all
Maybe I expected too much, but 100 bucks for a pair of speakers that are not much beter than stock pisses me off

Doesnt colorize the sound of the music, very neutral, clean. Excellent price for the high quality mid+high's it puts out. 90db sound pressure level.

Weakness:

lack of bass.

An excellent value, from a very under rated company.

Model Reviewed: Ranger ext. cab

Strength:

Very clean sounding. Produces highs, mids and lows.

Weakness:

Can't think of any.

Each speaker receives 40 RMS watts of power from an Eclipse 3640 amplifier. Perfect.

mike

Strength:

highs/mids

Weakness:

none given the speaker size

mids and highs are good, good enough that any fault with them could easily be placement in the truck (doors). Bass is a little weak but if your buying a full range 5x7 your not going to get realistic bass anyway. The 5x7's I heard that had more bass were boomy and lacked detail.

Similar Products Used:

more realistic sound than anything else in the price range i've heard. Adding a 8" polk woofer in a box enclosure which should fill out the bottom.
