What do you guys think about those speakers? i want to get some good speakers for the back, i have infinity woofers, never had a problem with them, so thats why im thinking about going with these infinity speakers....
2.) i NEED new sparkplugs.......now i was going to order them from PFYC, but i dont know which ones to get? i have the 3.4 engine, can someone tell me which ones will work THE BEST? thanks!!

^ agreed. don't spend a whole ton of money on your back speakers. they don't make much of a difference. I'd replace them if the woofers in the 6x9 is blown... but don't buy some expensive ones.... its a waste.
for less money you can get these

for your front doors. they just buy an amp down the line and you'll be getting kicked in the chest, routinely.

well one of the back ones is blown, and its annoying the hell out of me. I will buy cheaper ones for the back..... i will eventually change the front speakers out, but i will do that when i get rid of my subs.

erm my rears were WELL worth the money ($55)... i had them installed first and damn it sounded finished, 4x6s complemented more. 6x9s add good mid bass for those without subs (like me) pioneer w00t

Most of the people on here that say you don't need rear speakers either have huge systems so you can't hear them anyways, or they don't give a crap about quality. For the sound to balance right you need rear speakers, preferably good ones. Those infinitys would work just fine.
As for plugs, NGK is a good brand. It doesn't make much of a difference which kind, but Iridium IX is supposedly the best. But you can probably get them cheaper at a local auto parts store than online.

a lot of times i have my bass turned down cause of people in the back, they always tell me to turn it down But i would like a nice pair of rear speakers that have good bass......those speakers are 300 watts, pretty good for bass if you ask me! idk, i might just get the infinitys.... i will front speakers after i get rid of the woofers

300 watts means thats the power they can take if you put an amp to them. They don't automatically put out that much power.

i'd at least shop around for a better deal on 6x9's, $170 is ridiculous. you're not gonna get much bass out of 'em anyway if you run them off your cd player rather than an amp.

i dont see why you guys care about bass coming from your mids...if you want bass get subs, anyway i talked to him and told him why he would be wasting his money and i guess i changed his mind about his $200 speakers.

get those sony explode 3 way 6X9's from walmart for like $70.00 bucks and call it a day. Better then stock but won't break the bank. I forget the wattage rating but I think it's between 150 and 200 watts for them.

I like that choice of rear speaker, but you could probably find them less expensive somewhere else. And they will also work if you have the Monsoon setup. However, on your choice of plugs, I would definitely go to AutoZone and get the ACDelco 41-101 Iridium plug. It's the same thing for $7/ea. They're made by NGK.
