The Best 6X9's

I was looking for you'r Review's on what you thought was the best 6X9's were. I have a few In mind and wanted some real life opinion's of what your running, Please list how much power your running threw them and what type of music sound's the best threw your system. Thank's Grant

What up Grant? I'll try to get your post started by saying hat the Pioneer 6x9's have been great for me. 100 watts to each and they rip. I was impressed with the Sanger that we saw on the water (Ear Damage) many may have seen it at Boardstock. That is the loudest ski/wakeboard boat I have ever heard. He was pushing the Eclipse 2 way 6x9's on the tower> very loud!

Bostons 200 watts 4 Ohms $200 a pair

Be careful with Bostons. Audition before you buy. Way too colorful for me. Not a real clean sounding speaker and mid range is too thick. They will play low though.

Doug: your the 2nd guy to say not so good things about these Bostons. A friend told me there using new Neo Dyne Mag's and they don't sound like the older Boston's I was also Looking at the NEW Orion 6X9's and the Diamond's Ill post some photo's

Not sure about these, but I have heard pretty good things about them for 6x9's and they have a great warranty.

I've actually been lookin for some good 6x9s as well and I came across some MARINE MB Quart 2 or 3 way 6x9s. I called 3 of the local dealers in my area to go order or check the price and they didn't seem to know what i was talking about. The speakers are on MB Quart's website, but I'm thinkin they're pretty hard to get. Knowing MB Quart stuff, they can't sound bad.

I'll be driving them of a crunch V4300 & V4200 amp, I will have them in a month or so, I'll give a review of there performance then.

Grant, just a little test to see if you could figure it out!

I have a very high end system in my car with the top of the line Planet Audio speakers and have been very happy with them. I have blown thru a few subs, but I just walk in the shop and they swap them out for new ones with no problems.

I have seen some installs with the 6x9's and everyone seems pretty happy with them, but I have not sound tested them myself. They definitely look good though.

I'll second Darren's recommendation of the TS-A 6990R's. They sound incredible and can be found very cheap. www.sounddomain.com and www.Etronics.com have great prices on them! I put two of these on my tower running about 100 watts to them and they kick out more bass than I ever imagined. Not to mention, they are 5 way speakers.

I've heard great things about the Babb 6 x 9's

How much are you guys buying the Pioneer TS-A6990R's for?????
I recommend those speakers as well> very clean sounding.

I actually bought the TS-A6980R for $87.99 from thezeb. I got the slightly smaller model because I am running them in 2ohm with some TS-A1680R 6&1/2"'s and the outputs matched better.

They were cheaper to buy from etronics but I couldn't deal with them because of international issues.

RIght on man> that is a great price that you got!
Thanks for the reply!

If I remember correctly, the 6990R's were $79.95. Not bad considering they are $150 in any audio store.

i saw some sweet kraco 6x9's at kragen this morning. bling bling

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
