5.0 out of 5 stars Very good speakers, June 16, 2010

This is just a great all round speaker. Well made. Very very good highs and nice deep bass. Love them!

In order to maximize the efficiency of speakers you must seal the speaker properly. I bought some air conditioning soft foam filter mats and cut it to fit around the speaker edge (I used removable window sealer which feels a lot like playdoh to seal my front ones). I used foam around the edge of the spacers I bought where it meets the door.
Doing this completely seals the back of the speaker from the front and increases the bass response 30 times at least, and the increases the efficiency and life of the speaker. Especially on door speakers!! Hope this helps someone!

I had to replace broken factory speakers (paper or cardboard material) on my Integra '97, so I went to the shop to listen different speakers for under $100/pair. Polk DB651s were definitely #1, but surprise was this Pioneer that sounded better than Infinity or Sony (again, these are under $100/pair speakers). Polk had a clear, balanced sound from bass to mid to high. These speakers were not as clear but were well balanced.
So, I decided to put Polk speakers in front and Pioneer in the rear. Surprisingly, I could not hear much difference while driving, probably due to all the noise you get on the road. TS-G1643R speakers sound 1000x better than cheap factory speakers - I don't know if you can even buy something bad like what they put in the factory.

Pros:
- Installation was really simple. You need to get a cable adapter "harness" for your car, attach to the speaker on one side and to the car wire adapter on the other side, then put back original screws and that is it.
- Sound is great - you can hear nice bass and clear sound either for music or talk radio.
- It is so inexpensive that it is hard to imagine how they can sell it and make money.

Cons:
- Once you put speakers, the sound may not be what you expect - typically you will not get enough bass. After changing speakers, you need to use your receiver and set equilizer for the sound you like. In my case, on JVC receiver I restored default settings (everything "0") then added +4db for "bass" and -2db for "high". So, this is really not a "cons" but a note that you need to do something "extra".

If you want to get decent inexpensive speakers to replace factory junk, there is no competition in this price range to these speakers.

I've listened to many speakers in the store. Infinity Kappa, Polk, you name it. None sounded as good as these $45 Pioneers. I think the reason is that all other speakers "expect" you to install a subwoofer too. This pair, however, has a frequency response as low as 30Hz. I replaced the milk-jar-made Subaru factory ones with these and they sound better than I expected using the factory head unit. For $47 or so these speakers are a steal!
