Outstanding component speakers. I installed it to a '02 Slk 230 with no modification at all. The small but powerful magnet is a perfect fit to the factory speaker pod. I used a 100% oxygen free flexible 12 gauge wires. For now, I paired it with a Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS head unit and my old school infinity reference silk dome tweeters which fitted perfectly on those triangle sweet spots behind the side view mirrors. Even without amplifiers yet, I was blown away with the sound quality and durability of the speakers. it was a night and day difference compared to the stock Bose system. You can crank the volume up with no distortion at all! Can't wait to install my 4 channel Alpine amplifier and the Alpine flush mounting tweeters when the custom A pillars are done! The only problem so far is that the component speakers are so powerful that it started rattling my sideview mirrors. They are like mini subwoofers! For this, I have ordered some sound deadening materials. You can't go wrong with Alpine Type R speakers!Read full review

These speakers were put into a 2000 Honda Accord front doors and dash. Door install was a bit challenging. Remove all old speaker mounts. I used one of the adapters to mount these. This gives barely enough room for window operation. I used the adapter with 3 holes to screw to the door hole with self taper screws. Then write which wire goes where for future reference for amplifier polarity install. The tweeters were more challenging. Installed into old tweeter location. Remove old tweeter ,try to save gasket, cut wires close to tweet, remove from grill. New tweet, remove screw for housing, take apart gently, and use old gasket and 3 hole mount from old tweet mount. assemble to grill. mount should tilt tweet away from windshield a bit. Tricky part now, put crossover box in the fuse holder door, fishing wires up thru the dash. :) Have fun with this one. The sound is very good quality. SPR69 in the rear deck. 6x9 were a piece of cake. youtube rear speaker grill removal. I installed a pioneer GM-D9500F 4 channel amp for 75watt rms per channel. This rocks these speakers well. The sound Quality is astounding! The bass is very present! If you don't want tons of sub bass then this should do it for you. But it is also a good set up for an added sub woofer system. I would say possibly support up to a 1000 watt rms sub system. My deck is a Kenwood KDC BT955HD. This deck gives many adjustments you can make to each channel along with 7band eq. I found this system didnt need much tuning cause the speaker system does a very good job on its own. 4v pre-outputs tickle the amps to really sound out for you. Hope this review helps in your purchase.Read full review

I bought these speakers because of the ALPINE name and reputation I have had many ALPINE products through the years and tryed most of the other big name brands out there. I replaced a great set of Phoenix Gold 6" componets with these I couldnt be happier and I LOVE my Phoenix Golds. To compair this set of speakers would really not be fair considering the digital quility amp vs a non digital amp but what I will say in all fairness is this has to be the most close to being at a concert wherever you go that I have experenced without being at a show. If your looking for clear , clean , crisp , mids and highs I am not sure your going to find much better.I installed two sets in to my car (02 jetta) with the PDX-v9 amp and a set of fosgate 10's and I have a rolling concert and at concert quility. These speakers sound so good I bought a set for my Harley as well , I love loud clean clear music and these speakers deliver with a clearity that is amazing.Read full review
Nice sounding component speakers! Have an 05' Tundra and to my disappointment the woofer is 1/4 to deep to fit properly(cross member for window),ugh!JBL's fit though! Also included adapter plate did not work with stock speaker housing however woofer fit perfectly in access doors! The tweets fit good in stock position with the help of 3m tape! Overall gr8 sound for the $ with no distortion running off a Pioneer hed unit,very pleased!

These speakers compete with a newer luxury car's speakers. They offer great clarity even at higher volumes. The sound has easily improved 10 fold over my factory speakers. Installation was a breeze! I was able to remove the plastic cladding around the tweeters and the shell fit like a glove in my factory tweeter locations. Highly recommended!
