Strengths: Crisp highs, strong bass response
Weaknesses: Tweeter height may be too high for some vehicles if using factory grilles
Summary: I've had this pair of speakers for about 1 month now and I am very satisfied with them. They sound much better than the original factory Infinity's I had in my front door panels. The highs are very clear and crisp. The bass response is pretty decent, considering it's coming from 6.5 inch coaxials. I would definitely recommend this pair of speakers from Alpine if you want a good pair of speakers and you don't want to spend allot of money.

Strengths: FAR BETTER HIGH AND MID RANGE THAN THE SPEAKERS THEY REPLACED. KILLER DEAL ON THE NET MAKES THEM A STEAL.
Weaknesses: BASS IS A LITTLE WEAK, BUT I AM ONLY USING THE FACTORY HEAD UNIT, MORE POWER WOULD CURE THAT.
Summary: NO WAY TO GO WRONG HERE. THE IMPROVEMENT IN SOUND DETAILS IS REAL. BASED ON THE PRICE PAID, THESE ARE SUPER HIGH QUALITY SPEAKERS. INSTALL WAS AS SIMPLE AS IT GETS.

Strengths: Swivel tweeter can aim highs at you. Great sound and accepts good amount of power. Good sensitivity.
Weaknesses: Holes don't line up with GMC 6.5" holes (had to drill my own).
Summary: Great speaker, fits in factory location on GMC Sonoma, but screw holes did not line up. I can't really comment on the bass response since I have my high pass filter set at 120 Hz, and even that is equalized way down. My bass comes from a sub. I have these powered from a 50W/channel RMS amp with the gain at about 1/2 to 2/3 of the way up. Sound is really crisp and paired up with the Type S 4x6s and the sub, provides unreal sound for only $170 worth of speakers. 100% recommend to anyone.
