Best sounding speakers?

guywithayukon · Nov 11, 2009

Hello All, My folks have a 01 Tahoe and want me to put in new speakers for them...they don't want a new headunit

so my question for you is what are the best speakers that I can get for them while keeping the stock headunit...also if I am able to convince them to splurge and get a new headunit what are your favorites?

honestly, there are soooooo mnay good ones. Best advice, is go spend a day listening to many. Don't fall into the trap of buying at the first store. Test many, let your ears, and wallet decide.

^^^Exactly what he said. There are way too many choices. What sounds good to someone else may not sound as good to you. Spend a day comparing different brands and types and go from there. Some are going to have a warmer sound, some will have a wider frequecy response, etc. The main reasons behind choosing a particular set is going to be your personal preference and budget.

Thanks for the info guys...any brands to only look at/stay away from...my folks tell me that they 'want to hear the audio' but not be totally blow away...but don't want 'junk' either....and for budget my folks will be paying for it and paying me to install!

search B&M ma-pa retail shops, with a good rep in your area, they can guide you to low line, medium and high end.

I've been to a couple of shops and they dont have speakers on display to demo. I had asked and they said, " thats old school and now people either know what they want, or they trust us with what we recomend." I had heard "Hertz" and they sounded really good, just the price was high. I'm gonna have to go around to some other shops and see if they may have some i can hear.

wow...I'd find another shop. The deal about buying from a dealer, you should be able to look, feel and listen to them. If they say 'trust us', then I'd walk...that's part of the service, you'd think...
