i'm going to get either a set of Pioneer tsa699s 6x9 480watt 5 ways
or a set of Sony 4 way 400watt xsgt6947..
the pioneer's are much!!! higher spec but i hear sony is the best for speakers:confused:

i'm thinkin the pioneers but i haven't used this brand before

any input would be sweet

u hear sonys r good speakers? umm majority here would probably disagree with that statement. good if u want good looking red things :) bad if ur looking at a quality speaker ;) looked into other brands, or just the usual pioneer and sony? and something tells me those wattage figures are peak power, not rms...
please someone enlighten this poor guy! stimulate, where r u?!

umm now days sony makes s@hit speakers n they don't even have the looks and they low on base n it depends which 6x9 pioneer speakers u get. If i were u i would Defiantly go for pioneer the yellow ones and run em of with gud amp it should pump like crazy http://www.pioneer.com.au/car_entertainment/speakers/index.html

Yeh, stick with the pioneer mate.

Also, be weary of how many "ways" a speaker has. So it's splitting the signal 4 or 5 ways... but remember, a good set of component speakers will only have 2, or 3 drivers.

You dont need all these 'ways'... The thing with these type of speakers is that so many little drivers sitting over the main mid-bass driver, is going to block sound, and plus the mid-bass driver can also distort the smaller drivers mounted directly above it.
