Walmart audio, you say lol, I say FTW
ok, bought this for $150 at Walmart, thought it be lulzy, but it actually does work, and has 1 year replacement warranty
sound quality sucks on my cell phone, but it shows the power atleast...
can't wait to see what Ryan says

My friends is running some of those cheap Duals in his cavalier off of my old Hifonics amp. They are seeing close to 600 watts a piece. Don't sound bad at all for the money imo.
I'd be willing to bet if you faced them both towards the rear and got them as close to the back as you could, you would gain a bit.

I mean all the way to the rear. When I ran my two 15"s sealed I would gain close to two decibels by having the speakers almost hitting off of the trunk latch area.

I bet you'd gain a few dB if you mounted them on each side of the driver's seat... so the cone bounces off your ear lobe. |

How could I have overlooked this?! And if you ever upgrade to the VR3 co-axials from Wal-Mart, Cherri and I have came to the conclusion that speaker placement under the seats creates the "best" stereo imaging.

also... replacing your windshield with speakers gives a GREAT front sound stage.
really shakes the nose hairs.

I dont see whats so spectacular?
Other than its Dual and it works!
Now enough joking. Its all about whats good enough for you. Comparing that to nothing sure its good. Compare that to a set of Fi Q's and you wouldnt hold a candle...
Its all about perspective. When you have none then... well you get the picture.

That is exactly what i was getting at, in the alero i had Dual 6X9's in back and I blew em up in a week, these are so much better quality than the speakers were, and they also blow my 10'' kickers out of the water, and are using 1/2 the wattage
what I'm getting at is for budget audio, these kick ass, not that they could ever compare to anything like JL or Fi Q's

HaHa...I like the water bottle and change demo....LOL!
No need to spend a fortune on sound for a daily driver...unless you are in comp...but that's my opinion.
