Both Kenwood and Pioneer both make 6x8's and they're made with a lot better materials than the stockers.

Here's a link, I had about 12 different links to different brands but it kept doing it this way. Crutchfield has 12 different ones like Alpine, Blaupunkt, Boston Acoustics, Eclipse, Infinity, JBL, JL, Kenwood, Kicker, Pioneer, Polk, Sony.

JBL, Infinity and Pioneer always make good speakers. You cant go wrong with those. Three ways are good imo.

They're all good, what kind you get should depend on what music you like. If you're into bass, get standard or 2 way 6x8's. If you like highs and middle range with the bass, then get either a 3 way or even a 4 way, you'll get the whole range of sound. It's hard to choose which one out of that list to get, you can't do wrong with any of them.

sweet thanks for the help guys. I have a 600 watts of sub in the trunk. so I will probably get some three way pioneers. for the rear deck, and maybe later on some 4way pioneers for the front doors

I just ordered 4 Infinity Kappas 682.7cfs this past week, even though I still haven't decided on a head unit. I was told that the S197 couldn't hold the Infinity Kappas up front because they were too tall. I joked with the installer and said "haven't you seen Pimp My Ride? I can make them fit!".


The Infinity Kappas had the highest RMS rating over all the other 6x8s that i researched at 100 watts RMS each. Also, I have used Infinity Kappas in all of my vehicles since 1996! I just hope they haven't gone down hill since then. Prior to Infinity, I used Boston Acoustics Pro speakers for my higher ranged speakers.

I have the Kappa Infinities in the rear with a Pioneer deck. It is a excellent set up. I also have been wondering if I could squeeze a set of kappas into the doors.
