Re: What brand of car speakers are good nowadays?
i used alpines for my door speakers and rear 6x9's in my last integra. I thought they sounded pretty good...clear and had a good little amount of bass.

Re: What brand of car speakers are good nowadays?
I have been out of car audio for many years but if I was building a system today I would probably use whatever head unit of decent make I had laying around or if I was getting new I would probably get a midrange alpine.
For front speakers I have always used mb quart components, rear speakers are not needed unless you got a suburban or some other huge suv. for subs I would probably get a single 12 inch image dynamics either idmax or id v.3 and for amps I would get something older off ebay from a good maker. I am still using a 10 year old phoenix gold m50, and they can be had on ebay for cheap when they are available.

Re: What brand of car speakers are good nowadays?
I was just about to say MB Quarts actually, as I was rereading this thread. I forgot about it(go figure)
Back when I was semi into the stereo system, I almost got some. I have infinity's in the rear now, but I think I'm just going to replace it all minus the CD player.. over a spread out period of time though of course.

Re: What brand of car speakers are good nowadays?
I used to manage discount auto sound years ago. I learned that infinity was the best components (and sub if you were going for clarity over boom boom), rockford was the best amps, but we had more returns from rockford subs failing and having problems then anything. Back in the day MTX had the best subs and same with JL audio but I am not sure now a days.
Oh yea, I used to have a 12" Kicker L7 Solarbaric and I loved that fucking thing. I had it hooked up to a 400W bridged RF amp, it was awesome.
