I have a 96 240sx with a blown rear speaker, im planning on replacing the stock speakers, but i dont know what 6.5's i should buy, What brand sounds the best for the least amount of money???

 

Infinitis sound good.....so to Alpines. Ive had decent expereinces with pioneer, not the loudest or best sounding, but probably one of the best bang for your buck.

 

make sure you get a 6.75", not a 6.5". You can get a plain set of no frills Pioneers or Kenwoods for like $40 a pair. I have a couple Pioneers in my car and the $40 they do their job fine.

 

I prefer pioneer...go to a local audio store and just play with **** and find which ones you like

 

if ur on a budget pioneers arnt bad...i have rockford fosgates in the back. i like them well enough. both brands are fairly inexpensive.

 

I like Boston Acoustics and MP Quarts. Expensive though. Infinitys are nice too.
MB Quarts? Mp? I don't know.

 

Yeah there ya go...go to good guys or something you can play with all there ish...lol. Sometimes I just go there to crank the music

 

Back to the Pioneer thing - remember, rear speakers are just for fill, so you don't have to spend a lot to get the desired effect. Save more money for the fronts and maybe a sub setup, and your sound will be good to rock

 

planetaudio has good **** too

 

I was thinking abut the sony xplode speakers, cuz i can get em for cheap. Have you guys heard anything about them? And I have two Rockford Phosgate 12 inch Punch Subs with a Sony Xplode 800watt amp. Just to let ya know

 

Personally I really don't like Sony's but thats just me

 

I think Clarion is a big secert out there. Not the loudest but the best sound quality by far.

 

I have infiniti reference components in the front and I think 6.5 rear. (Havent checked the size, I just got the car) Wow paired with the Alpine deck it sounds pretty damn good with good bass and highs. Not too expensive either...

 

i put in a pair of 220w 2 way pyle speakers in my back, they were like 20 bucks or something and they are fine, anyways you can't really notice the back so much, the fronts are more important. So just put whatever u want to spend in the back :P

 

Those are the stock speakers. (at least in my S13)
Clarion is your base-line audio company. Buy something good like Pioneer.
Clarion is OK, but not really an upgrade.
