Upgrade speakers - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Looking to spend 300ish on upgraded speakers, should I start with the front doors or rear deck? Was leaning towards fronts. I already have a jl 900/5 so i can power what i get

Been looking at jl 650s but not sure if there is something better out there or if they will even fit.

Thanks

Ill check em out. Im trying to stay within a $300 budget which I hope is more than enough for good speakers.

suggest all the way around, the sony xplod 6.5 inch 3ways did the trick for me, took awhile for them to mellow out the highs and mids are too crisp

suggest a woffer with them, i have 3 10s

Check out the JBL MS-62c's or the Rockford Fosgate T2652-s. Either are great and well within your price range.

Get a nice set of Focals up front and if you want to save money get a set of Alpines for rear fill. Really don't hear the rear speakers much so I would put my money in the fronts and get something ok for the rears to stay in budget. Big fan of Focals myself. Hertz are nice also. JL's sounded harsh to me although I really like there subs.
