New speakers
« on: February 06, 2011, 08:06:17 am »
Has anyone got speakers from Amazon? Is the price for a pair as shown in the ads or for one speaker? I would hate to order 2 and end up with 2pairs and pay double.

Truthfully, not really.  They are a bargain speaker with bargain sound.  It depends on your expected level of quality, they will do the job and sound better (probably) than most stock speakers.  But they are nothing special.

I'd 2nd these, much better choice than the Pyles.  One of the better "mass market" deals out there.

I use www.onlinecarstereo.com as a way to search a specific size. They usually have good prices to boot.
