Posted June 16, 200520 yr Does anyone know of any nice 6.5" coaxials (preferably the size that can fit into the oversized OEM openings)...i've been lookin and thought i'd ask about any nice coaxials u guys had experience with...
June 16, 200520 yr Author no brand preference really...budget is probably under 150 ish...preferably lower obviously...
June 16, 200520 yr Boston Acoustics...they work fine for me. Get very loud and sound great with about 75-80w per side from my PG T500.2.
June 17, 200520 yr I'm going to definitely x2 the Boston's.I like the sound of the new Kicker coaxials ... and I'll add the JL XR and VR lines, Alpine SPR-17LP, Infinity Kappa 62.7i (if you like the sound of them), and of course ... Image Dynamics CTX6. There are lots out there, but these are the ones that I like at the moment.I've said it before and I'll say it again ... try to listen to as many different speakers as possible in your price range to see what you like and what you don't like.
June 17, 200520 yr A buddy of mine had the JL XR comps installed in his Avalon...definitely like the sound of those, so I'm figuring the coaxial models are built from the same tech. Would be worth a look as well.Did Supa actually agree with something I said?

June 17, 200520 yr Boston> JL for speakers.Above 100Hz, anyway JL hands BA their ass in the bottom two octaves.No, i agreed with steveYou wrote "x3". That specifically includes my first statement about them
June 23, 200520 yr Author hmm the only reason i don't want comps is i wouldn't know how and where to mount the tweets...and im not much of a DIY guy and don't usually have that much time/patience...
June 23, 200520 yr Author and would it be easy to fit 6.5" coax's into a stock opening made for 6.75"-7" speakers...? its going into the front doors of a 1994 Camry...

June 23, 200520 yr try memphis pr 6.5's..jsut get the model number with the O in it, for oversized....under $90 retail (usually about $75) and have a really nice sound to them. of course for the $150 or so, u can get m class.....i have them in my wife's car...really nice...and they have nice mid bass, not great, but it's good.wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
June 23, 200520 yr Author have any of u guys heard these oz audio 6.5" vector2 coaxials? someone is selling them for like 60 or 70 shipped on another car audio site...
June 23, 200520 yr Author also what about some nice rear fills? 6x9's....the reason i want rear fill is because sometimes i take my sub out (for road trips and such) and i want to have some better midbass/overall sq without my sub...
