Look, Im a picky guy and I unregretfully chose these. No fancy equipment, 4 neo 6.5, 4 skar spx1neo aluminum tweeters, a double din head unit at 4v rca output, 2 amps - 1Hifonics bg1000.4 at 125rms for voice, Skar 1500rms 12inch ported paired with 1500 amp at 1 ohm and an audiocontrol epicenter and it SLAPPPSSS. Still havent done my big 3, I do have a 220 amp alternator and every single wire is OFC and double shielded elite rcas. No regrets, great vocals, insanely crisp and loud kick and snares. Mind you i have them hooked up to less than half of what they are rated at... badass
Now, my setup may differ for the better because my LS400 came with factory ported speaker boxes with inner sound deadening which these smaller depth speakers allowed me to utilize. Nonetheless, My previous setup on a different vehicle consisted of the same amps but I was running Pioneer Pros 2 6.75 and 2 pro 6x9 and yeah it was loudd and middy and punchy but mannn these speakers do it all. I cant express how clean and loud they get while being able to play a nice range of frequencies. They are not the most mid-full speakers but when you have booming bass it makes up for it.
Overall, the 50 bucks on a speaker per door was for sure worth it.
If you want speakers that scream, dont get muddy, have great kicks and snares, plays instrumental music like the bands right inside your car and need a shallower mounted speaker.. trust your gut, dont rape your wallet with crazy name brands and trust this review because you'll actually enjoy these speakers AND be louder and crisper than most systems out there.. I dont play about my quality of sound and these exceeded that. Ive only had them installed and bumping since yesterday 2/2/25 and my ears f*cking hurt hahaha. Still havent fully tuned them and only half powered.. stop looking for anything else, you have the answer here in your face.
Very crystal clear sound. I will buy more in the future. This neo 6.5 is very highly recommended for audiophiles.
came in fast and liked it will be ordering again.
I just hooked these up with my CT 150.4 and it is outta control! I got these to replace entry level kicker 6.5's and it is some much better sound and so much louder and clearer than I could've ever hoped for. I mean holy shit brah!!! If anyone is on the fence about getting these, just do it! Trust me, it's gonna blow ur friggin mind! Thank you CT for another crazy awesome product!!! I have some tweeters too that I got with these but haven't booked them up yet but I know for a fact that they will blowing my mind as well!!! I have the loudest and clearest system around this bitch now. LMAO
