This might be one for SSStick (6x9 speakers)
« on: May 30, 2005, 12:22PM »
Well i'm getting 6x9's for the parcel shelf of my car. It's all set up and ready to go and the wire and holes are already there.
Basically i want to go out and get a bargain today or tommorow and as i've heard a few rumours about bass interferance with subwoofer/6x9's i was going to go out of my way to get good quality ones but at the right price.

To be honest i am not convinced that if set up the right way, 6x9's distort bass to much of an extent after hearing some in another TRX yesterday out on a cruise to somerset dam. They provided the much needed midrange my ears seek an as they were amplified with the exact same amp as mine i am happy that they will produce the same quality of sound

Has anyone had any good experiences with particular brands and can you remember what you paid for them?

last year i got my JL Audio 6x9s at JB Hi-Fi for like $250 or sumthin like that.

I rekon JL's are the goods, got JL 6" splits in the fron t and a 4 channel JL amp amp (yet to be installed tho, haven't had the time).

(Plus JL is my initials! Coincedence?!?!)
If somebody asks you, "can I ask you a question?" and you say, "no",  you're actually answering a question. Think about it....

if you really want 6x9s, and want a bargain, a set of sony XSGT6947 4 way 400w are a good buy, even for sony gear, we have them for $99 atm, unless you want to spend more

Yeah they're awesome for the money value.
The alpine type R's are in a different league because of the recessed tweeter though the cost outweighs the "omg listen to that" factor

6x9's are IN!
Talk about clarity, these things sound GOOD!

I'd recommend these new MTX 6x9's to anyone who wants really good midrange at a really good price.
Go and speak to Josh at strathfield in capalaba ..

The parcel shelf in it wasn't too bad. The person who had the car before me reinforced it with some pieces of wood but a new one is on the cards
