Default speakers

What are some good door speakers for cheap? i am not running a amp to the speakers so they need to sound decent without much power.

97 civic ex so 6 1/2 in front and 6x9 in the back.

for the 6x9's do you want the same as your 6.5's or do you want them with bass? if your not going to get subs then you'll need some with decent bass.

running subs for sure, 6.5 would be ok for the rear, but this is just a starter setup while i do other **** to my car then come back to put in a kick *** setup. better deck, 2 amps, components in front etc.

oh ok. Then finding some 6x9's that handle highs will be a necessity. I was retard and got bass speakers all around and then got subs. cause= my regular speakers started to distort when they reached the highs and sounded like crap.

for 6x9's I think infinity and polk audio make great stuff.

I runing infinity 6.5's in front and cliffdesigns 6x9's in mine, they are amped and i love them...

when i didnt have the amp hooked up the rears still sounded very good, but i never heard the fronts... I highly recomed getting a 4 channle amp. Also, you arent supposed to have highs in rear, i do, and i love it. Take a trip down to car toys or somthing and listen to some speakers.

before i got my infinitys i was looking at phoenex, but the infinitys make them sound like junk.

You do know that the rsd's are regarded as the best bang for buck component set on the market right?

Not saying they are bad, but i do not regret not buying them.
