Jon Tyler Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 hi guys im looking for some high quality, loud, 6x9s and tweeters for my car. Im throwing a 1200 watts of face blasting bass in the back and i need to be able to hear my music clearly while bumping. Any suggestions? the budget is around $100-$150 for tweets, and the $100-$150 for the 6x9s Jon Funda 16 Car audio Enthusiast and Still learning Ragnarok Scenario Player, Youngblood #111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranny Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 6x9's aren't meant for sound quality. if you want loud, get pro audio mids and tweets. 1200w? i was able to hear song lyrics clearly with like 160w on the mids and highs with 1200w on the substage. guy i know has a single selenium tweet and 6.5 in each door and you can hear the music with him demoing 157's.

Jon Tyler Posted September 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 For reference i wasnt asking for opinions on how much bass is face blasting, because 1200 is still a great amount if done well. But for the advice on some good tweets and going with 6.5s instead thanks Jon Funda 16 Car audio Enthusiast and Still learning Ragnarok Scenario Player, Youngblood #111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aculous Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 Seems like from your other posts you need to do the research first. I am not just being an asshole when I say that, it will save you a lot of money in the long run. Ditch the 6x9s, run 6.5" component sets and a 4-channel amp. 6x9s will always sound like crap I have dealt with them in multiple vehicles, they always sound "ok" then you end up buying components anyway because you get annoyed with them sounding just OK no matter what you do to EQ them. Or you go deaf and you can't tell the difference. Look at brands like Rockford($-$$), Zapco($-$$$), Crescendo($), Zaph Audio($$), B2($), Hybrid Audio Technologies ($$$) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gckless Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 Vifa tweeters. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now. It's like witchcraft... it automatically explains just about everything people don't understand.

NathanW Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 If you do in fact want good sound quality I highly recommend listening to a pair of Hybrid Audio Technologies Imagine I61-2 6.5" convertible coaxial speakers and consider doing an installation in your kick panels. They would fit your budget (total) and you'd be hard pressed to find better at the price. If all you really want to do is get loud, then as someone as already suggested, look into some pro-audio speakers. But whatever you decide to do, I strongly suggest you actually listen before you buy... You wouldn't buy a car without driving it first would you?
