Advantages: phat bass!
Disadvantages: speakers are quite deep, so be sure to check your install depth available

...along with a set of VDO 6" splits. I've tried numerous big name brands of speakers (Sony, Pioneer, Kenwoord, JVC), and these VDOs out-do all of them! The speakers provide it all, very clear treble and mid range sound, bit more importantly they have fantastic base. I found that with a full set of VDO speakers (6x9's in the rear plus the 6" splits in the front) running through a 4 channel amp I did not even need a sub. Just be sure to get the HSP range ...
...out her Hyundai Tiburon with VDO speakers. Only word of caution is that these badboys have a massive magnet on the back of them, so size-wise they are quite deep. Be sure to check the installation depth available as they require more depth space then your average speaker. The VDO brand is not as well regarded as others, but I can not speak highly enough of these speakers. Give a set a go and you will not be disappointed! ... Read review

Advantages: Drop in replacement for 5 inch car speakers. Reasonable bass response
Disadvantages: Tweeter breaks easily, distorts at volume. Expensive for what you get.

I bought 2 boxes of these speakers at £15 per box to replace the 4 much abused, 18 year old speakers in my car. Initially I was pleased with them, they weren't much louder than the speakers they replaced but they had slightly better clarity and bass. After a month or so, one of the speakers developed a horrible high pitched buzz from the tweeter on certain notes. I checked to see nothing was caught in it and wrote it down to me over-driving them. ...
...a lowly 12watts RMS, I felt 90 watt speakers should be able to cope. However, for some reason the manufacturer refuses to follow the industry and measure their speakers in RMS. After a further few weeks of not particularly loud music, the other 3 speakers developed exactly the same problem as the first, screaming on certain tones. I borrowed a tone generator CD from someone and played it loud through all frequencies which seems to have reduced ... Read review

Advantages: GENERATES LOW NOTEs LIKE NOTHING ELSE, AND CAN DRIVE THEM TO THE LIMIT
Disadvantages: NEED SPACE FOR THE BOX, AND HIGH POWER AMP

These SUBS ROCK. I have had these subs for a while and they really do some damage. Only thing to consider when choosing the box for these beasts is you have to make sure you have some room, as a too small box will sound flat. You need to have a decent box to produce the low note this can give off. If you do not have the room then do what i did and reverse them so they are facing into the box, this will make a huge diffrence. I have tried pushing ... Read review

Advantages: Good value for money, Good sound quality, You get everything you need
Disadvantages: Tweeters can be slightly delicate (so use supplied cross-overs)

...1 x pair of 13cm fusion woofer 2 x Grills 1 x pair of fusion tweeters 2 x cross-overs Speaker wire These are the set of speakers which you get with the fusion '4 corner package' (EN-4CNR). I have installed both the woofers and tweeters into the doors of my vauxhall corsa and the sound quality compared with the old factory standard ones is by far a big improvement. I am not using the provided cross-overs purely because they are rather large and ...
...Sound Quality: Originally I had some pioneer 13cm coaxiles which I was very disapointed with as they didn't even seem to be as good as my old standard speakers. When I purchased these I wasn't expecting too much from them to be honest. Like with the 6x9's which I also got in the package I have actually been rather impressed with them. The speakers themselves have been breaking in for a few months now and the sound quality is much better than when ... Read review

Advantages: Value for money, Good sound quality, Styling
Disadvantages: Ideally need to be hooked to an amp, Green not to everyones taste

...I brought them in the Fusion 4 corner package, which contained an amplifier (EN AM6004) and a set of component speakers (En-CM525) and a wiring kit. The 6x9 speakers are currently in the boot of my corsa, in a box which I made and are being ran off the amplifier along with the components. I did originally just wire the 6x9's up to my head unit which is the Inphase IPS920SD and this has a max power output of 4x60rms. The head unit alone provided more ...
...you can't really complain. For the price which I payed for the Fusion '4 corner package' (£100) I wasn't expecting much but i'm glad i did make the purchase because the set and especially these speakers are ideal for someone wanting to make a cheap but good car audio system. ... Read review
