Hey guys, Just needed some opinions on which speaker you guys would think is best value for money out of the few listed below and why you think so:

I listen to mainly RnB/Rap/House/Energy/Trance. If that helps.

I plan to only run fronts and no rears.

Will be bridging a 4 channel amp to run the fronts.

1) Soundstream PCC6N 6 1/2" Component Speakers $RRP 399

2) JL AUDIO Evolution C5-650 C5 Component Speakers $RRP 699

3) Pioneer TS-D1720C 6.5' 260W Component/Splits Speaker $RRP 549

4) NEW ALPINE TYPE-R SPR-17S 6.5" 330 Watt 2-Way Splits $RRP 399

5) Boston Acoustics SL60 6.5" Component Speakers $RRP 549

Thanks guys :)

okay champ spr-17S are 349 RRP.

http://www.alpine.com.au/products/product.asp?modelID=314

and i havent heard the boston or soundstream splits in a car, but for what its worth audition a set of Focal 165VR $519 RRP. fantastic speaker for 500.

JL AUDIO Evolution C5-650 C5 Component Speakers $RRP 699

bro has a set and they are very good , i find tweeters to be soft and not to tinny sounding like some of splits i heard.

at end of day you should listen to all of them and see what ones best for your ears :D

Mate you cant go wrong with JL Audio. The c5 is one of the best speakers i have heard in a while.Made in Germany and they come very close to the JL ZR.Come see me at JB HI FI Warrawong and i will hook you up.Ask for Aaron.

Yep cant go wrong with jl audio speakers, dont get put off with low power output, These are pure quality :D

Focal are not bad also. Wouldnt go pass these 2 unless goin extremly high end alpine cos other than that they are poop imo.

Run 6" or 6 1/2 inch in back also could be a thought. Then get a Jl audio sub also. W3 an up :P

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
