Rockford Fosgate fronts and rears

[Shiwnath]

About a week ago I ordered rockford fosgate T1462 front speakers and T1693 rear speakers. Today they came..I only got to install the fronts before I had to go to work... They sound awesome, but I'm considering getting an amp so they'll perform better. What do you guys think of rockford fosgate as a car audio brand?

[Ryan from Ohio]

I think the subs and amps are decent and speakers mediocre.

[Shiwnath]

Really? I thought I'd give RF speakers a shot because I had a RF sub and amp and they sounded pretty good. Hopefully I won't be disappointed with the speakers in the long run. What would you have gone with instead Ryan?

I bought some Alpine type S door speakers for my alero and love them, I dont think you went wrong with RF their good speakers. I think it mostly depends on peoples pickyness and SQ and what are they running their system for?

I am trying to find Alpine Type S for my 6x9's

you also could go to your local best buy and get the type s speakers from there.

we dont have a local best buy in my area sadly, we do have future shop and they sell them for $89.99

[JLw7123]

oh ok well get those then

[colonel6632]

or pm ryan, he has really good prices on some decent equipment

[Shiwnath]

finally got the rear speakers in. They sound pretty good. I didn't think rear speakers were that much of a pain to get in, but then again that was my first time installing rear speakers.

[robalero]

I havent yet looked to see how to get the rear speakers out but nothing can be worst then the new g5 ( cobalt ) or hyundai sonata rear speakers lol

rob do you have a coupe or sedan?

[robalero]

coupe

[Alerojester]

i have Power Accustic 6x9's and Kicker door speakers and its great as long as i can hear it above my exhaust

[Ttop191]

coupe

yeah...for a coupe you have to remove the top half of the seat belts, the plastic there, fold down the rear seats remove the plastic above the opening for the trunk, then pull out the rear deck...its a treat...

[robalero]

thats not that bad, ive seen worse. should take roughly an hour or two to do depends on how much beer might be around when doing it lol

[Ttop191]

yeah thats a safe bet ;)

[heineck]

ditch the 4x6 and do sum 5.25 or 6.5 it makes a world of difference

[Shiwnath]

Would they fit in there? Or would I have to do something custom?

[robalero]

custom
