it is ok they are not subwoofers or anything but they have much more bass than the factory speakers that came in my 2003 accord.

Sorry for the delay. I replaced my 1994 Chevy cavalier factory speakers with these speakers and a dual audio receiver. These are good all-around speakers. I have my bass set on level 4 out of 7. The speakers meet my needs and I am pleased with them.

The base sound is not bad but could be better for me. other than that they are pretty good speaker's.

Phil,as I noted in my review, we use these speakers in the upgrade automobile systems we build-they are not junkers! I have had mine for several months and they still look and sound a good as new. Plenty of power and clarity, also plenty of bass "ummph" for gaming. Good speakers at a good price...hope you have Amazon Prime.

They replaced my stock fried 2007 chevy 1500 4 door speakers perfectly, the fuzz is gone and all sounds well. To get more out of them I would have to go to a higher power aftermarket head unit, but adequate for this work truck. I always buy Alpine speakers as replacement/ upgrades and have never been disappointed.

Mine fit into the door of an MGB. They are better than what they replace. There is some bass, but remember these are small speakers and much also depends on the stereo head unit.

If you are using them for your rear speakers, they will be just fine with your system. We have about same set up and they work very nice.

I fit them in the front doors of my old Tahoe. I hade to use the factory housing, it will take a bit of pressure to remove it safely and properly. Without the housing the speaker is too small.

They are mid level speakers. I think with that system I would use components. I had a 12 Fusion Sport with that system and it was excellent ..I put these on 08 F150 as a door upgrade and dont think they would handle your system.

Boss is very great! I have one so do my brothers and none of us have ever had any problems with them. And they can handle a good amount of watts. I have two 2100 max subs and they sound great. And boss is pretty cheap.

They said they wouldn't fit in my Buick too despite the fact that I had 6x9s in there from the factory. The only issue I had was that only 3 of the 4 mounting screw holes would match up. The 4th was off center so I just mounted them with 3 in my rear deck. These speakers are pretty deep (that's why they have decent bass) so check your clearance first. I was going to put these in my doors too but the window track was an issue so I put in the Infinity 6" round speakers. Those weren't supposed to fit either btw. Amazon is not perfect. LOL

I was upgrading from stock w/ a PPI 900.4 amp and they sound great. The highs are very sharp (I would tune them down via my head unit EQ) and the midbass was a clear upgrade from the stock speakers. I would expect that the midbass would sound MUCH better if your doors were properly deadened (the single layer of Rammat wasn't enough). Overall I am very satisfied, like many in the blogosphere that have purchased the speakers. I'm selling my current car and put in some cheap stock speakers (w/o an amp, granted) and its night and day. I'd def recommend these JBLs!

I'm not positive I put them in my mothers 2002 grand am for her. They mounted, plugged, and played the exact same. They sound great for the factory system. Very happy with them.

Define sound good? It's sort of subjective. These speakers sound ok to me using the head unit only, but to be honest the speakers could use a separate amp to give them more power as I can't honestly tell the difference between these an the 20 year old Kenwood's they replaced. For the price, IMHO, it would be better than your current Blaupunkt speakers.

If your head unit has a pre amp it should be fine, the bass on these units are good .

If you hook these to your factory radio, they will be a huge improvement over the factory ones, but if you really want them to shine get an aftermarket amp / head unit. If you are comfortable splicing wires, you should have no problems hooking these up. Just Google the wiring diagram so that you can make sure that you connect the right wires to the correct terminals.

In my case they are hooked up to a weak output stock Honda Accord stereo and there are a noticeable improvement from the stock rear two way. These are rear speakers not door speakers jfyi. I'd buy them again, I like them. If they were connected to an amp they would have a lot more kick, but so would any speaker I guess. Hope this helps.

They will work and will sound just ok. If you could amp them even it's a small amp they will shine though. Yes however these speakers have high sensitivity ratings and will work ok off just aftermarket headunit power alone.
