I had a friend at work once tell me, "You know why Sony calls their line up 'XPLOD'?  Because they explode!"

its either SONY Xplods, or SONY pops, one of the 2.

but seeing as they used to have a name and all, it cant be that bad, but then again, you can't really beat the price.

i'll see how the sony gear goes, and keep you all informed in due time.

question?
those of you with door mounted 6inch speakers, is there enough room in those thin doors to still roll down your windows all the way?

i actually use my door map pockets ALOT and was thinking of mounting just behind the door pockets so if i really needed them still they're still there but my assumtion was the door its self isn't deep enough for 6inchers and still be able to lower the windows all the way.

usually 6" (2way or 3 way) door speakers have a shallow mounting depth for this very reason. with my window rolled fully down, i have maybe half an inch from the speaker magnet to the glass.

as with some component speakers, as in splits, the actual speeker is a woofer and has a larger magnet and requires a deeper mounting depth, such speakers are the Alpine Type S and Type R. to deal with these problems, door pods are used, these are usually where your feet are, at the front of the door, and where your side pockets are, and are angled towards your head.  they also have plain spacers, in half inch, or 1 inch, but be careful, as sometimes there may not be enough room between the door and the seats when doors are closed, and also, you need a bit of space for the sounds/music to circulate and sound descent.

if you need your side pockets, save up for some top end 4" speakers, and place them in the factory positions, and get some 6" SPLITS or some 6"x9"s.

Sony makes some prety good stuff, BUT if your going to WalMart Looking for decent Audio Equipment, YOUR GOING TO GET JUNK!!!!!!!  All they sell is Sonys bottom line equipment. Sony, Just like all other companies sells you what you pay for. I have a Sony Mobile ES 4 Chanel Amp that has been my choice of Amps to run my Mid & Highs through for 3 years now. Good power, crystal clear sound with next to 0 distortion at high volumes. But it was purchased at a High End Audio Shop, NOT WALMART!!!!

Like I said, I love Sony, everything that I own made by them is great, and I'm only passing on what I've heard about there car audio.  I'm sure the higher end stuff kicks ass.

As for room, I was thinking of removing the rear panel off the tailgate and setting up some 8" or 10" subs in there and the amp.  If not there, a unit small enough that I can remove from the little space that there is in the back behind the rear bench when unfolded for rear seat passengers to sit.
