What components?
Hey guys, complete audio noob here with a $150 gift card from BestBuy I'm looking for a set of components. I don't have an amp nor sub YET so I'll be running them from my HU (xnv-770bt) for now. I am not after a perfect sound or super loud setup. I pretty much wanna keep it simple and affordable, just looking to upgrade from factory setup. I was looking at these, let me know what you think:
Kenwood - Kenwood 6-1/2" Component Car Speakers with Polypropylene Cones (Pair) - KFC-P709PS - Best Buy Clarion - Q Series 6-1/2" 2-Way Component Speaker System (Pair) - SRQ1621S - Best Buy Alpine - 6-1/2" 2-Way Component Car Speakers with Poly-Mica Cones (Pair) - SPS-610C - Best Buy Any of those worth it or should I be looking at something else? Thanks! |

What are you going to be running them off of?
If you are running it off the head unit than the polk db's would be your best bet. Or the alpines. For amped power look at the alpine type r's if you can only buy from best buy.

If you plan on building on the system and later adding an amp and sub then don't cheap out on the components now. Personally I went with Alpine Type R's I haven't installed them yet. I had the Type S awhile back in my old car and I like them.

Can I run the Polk DBs with an amp? That way I can just buy the Polk's somewhere else and get an amp from Best Buy for pretty much the same I would spend if I go with the $200 Polks. Remember I am not after perfection, just something that sounds decent, not gonna crank them up all the way or anything.
