Pioneer TS-A6963R 6-Inch X 9-Inch, 270-Watt 3-Way Speakers

Comment: I just replaced the rear deck speakers of my 99 Mazda 626 with these speakers, and I have to say that for the price you wont find anything better! Installation was relatively easy (keep in mind this is the first time I have actually replaced car speakers) and Pioneer was even kind enough to include screws and wiring. The speakers themselves are great. The bass is tight and strong, but don't expect the same quality as from a purpose-built subwoofer. The high frequencies are neither tinny nor piercing, and the mid-range sounds smooth and natural. I look forward to putting the 6" x 8" 3-way units from Pioneer into the doors and pairing them with the new head unit for a little extra power.

I listen to a whole range if music from regular rock and electronic to brutally mechanical industrial and EBM. No matter what type of music is played it sounds great coming through these speakers! I'd most definitely recommend these to somebody looking for great speakers at a great price.

Comment: These speakers were cheap but they are great. They du=id the job and I would highly recomend them

Comment: Amazing speakers for the price. I was really amazed at how well these sound. These replaced my factory Bose speakers in my Acura and first time listening to these I felt like I had installed a sound system. Tight Bass, clear mids. I use an iPod through a cassette adapter and these really opened up the sound. I can drive with the windows down and still hear clean crisp sound at high level without distortion. Every now and then I find myself turning down the bass because these can hit low and hit hard.

Comment: I bought these and the same make only 4 way instead of 3 for the front. I only have an aftermarket radio with 4 channel 20 watt. The sound on these is amazing for how little they cost. Very easy to install and came with connecting wires. The highs and mids are flawless and the bass hits are tight and not at all muddy or distorted. My friend said he could hear me pulling up and could hear the music as if he were standing right there. I listen to heavy metal and industrial by the way, to give an understanding of the sound Im comparing it to.

it comes with two speakers, if youre still not sure.

Comment: For the price you pay, these are really good speakers. I installed it at the rear for my 2000 mit eclipse and drove them directly from my Pioneer DEH-P5900IB (4x14 RMS) HU. Now, the reason why I didn't give this a 5-star rating is because, I am comparing them with the stock 1-way infinity speakers. The Pioneer is a 3-way, so you will feel the difference in the high and mid range instantly. The low range freq, however, is NOT MUCH better than the stock Infinity; it is only SLIGHTLY better. The real improvement in low freq output for these Pioneer spkers can only be heard IF you play original CDs that is well mixed by the producers, such as Michael Jackson's Dangerous album or Madonna's Immaculate (I am an 80's/90's person). If you burn your own CDs at 128 kbps transfer rate, and play them thru these spkers, the base improvement is only marginal. Yes, the highs and mids are obviously better since the stock Infinity DOES NOT have a mid and tweeter. And if you play songs thru your IPOD, at a low transfer rate, the improvement in low freq with these Pioneers isn't fantastic.

Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that there are NO improvement in the low freq at all for these Pioneer speakers, just that I expected more. But at that price, you may consider my expectations as unrealistic and that I am not making a fair comparison with 8 year olds Infinity spkers. 8)

Nevertheless, I will be buying the Pioneer 6.5 component speakers soon for my front speakers... Right now, these 6x9s are overwhelming my front stock speakers...

At some point, I will also install an AMP to drive all these Pioneer speakers. I think the sound will be much richer then (and clearer).

But regardless, if your budget is tight and you don't want to install an AMP (yet), these are good speakers to buy.
