have been thru a couple of pair of 6x9s, (audiobahns) any body have a reco on a 6x9 that really hits and sounds good? seems like a lot manaufacturers don't make a quality 6x9, with all the focus going to 6.5s was thinking boston acoustics...any ideas

 

are you replacing the deck speakers? audiobahn are cheap speakers, bostons are nice and so are jl's

 

Infinity Kappa 693.7i's are very nice. Boston's are also nice from the reviews i've read.

 

yes, replacing rear deck speakers...here's the thing the audiobahns just had better specs than the boston or jl's, but your right cheap price and cheap quality... had some jls a few years ago and weren't impressed with them...do you have the bostons in now?

specs mean nothing until you hear them, i have a boston and jl combo setup and its nice...but the deck speakers are just 6x9 subs you dont have to change them out

 

What are your goals in replacing the 6x9's?

Have you replaced the rest of the speakers also, or do you plan to replace them?

Are you going to keep the Bose amp to power the speakers?

 

i've replaced the fronts with a component set from audiobahn,didn't replace the sides. alpine head unit, everything being pushed by an alpine MRP F450 70Wx4, there is no Bose left!! was hoping to avoid adding a sub to save space in the trunk due to traveling a lot. so, would like the 6x9s to provide plenty of bass which the audiobahns did for a little while.

 

audiobahns in my opinion have horrible quality. If anything I would try to get a 6x9 to 6.5 adapater and go with 6.5s. You will have a lot more options. I have yet to hear a great pair of 6x9s.
