PIONEER A-Series Standard TS-A6961F 6” x 9” 4-Way Speakers (Pair) – 450W Max, Balanced Sound + Smooth Treble, Enhanced Bass, Ideal Factory Upgrade, Installation Adaptors Included

First world problem; The music in my sprinter campervan doesn't sound very high Fidelity at all. Waaaaah!I built the pictured speaker enclosures to improve the sound in my sprinter. This is an excellent van, but the original sound system is terrible. The stock speakers are 3 1/2” paper cones in the dash. I had previously replaced the stock dash speakers with 4” pioneer co-axles. This alone improved the sound, but left much to be desired. I replaced the stereo with a Pioneer DEH-S7200BHS, which gave a slight improvement, but still lacked. My plan was then to build the pictured boxes, fill them with these Pioneer 6x9s, and build a subwoofer enclosure for a 10 to 12 inch sub. The speaker boxes are made of MDF, with a .42 cubic ft. internal volume. They are sealed, not ported, and all walls are non-parallel to avoid resonance frequencies The bass response is so good with these that the plan for the sub is out. In fact I had to call on the equalizer in the ‘7200 to decrease the bass level because the low end response of these is so good. (-3.@50 hz, [email protected] hz. -1@125 hz.).These speakers are also easily bi-ampable. The wires to the midrange and tweeter are easily accessible to split from the woofer. With the Pioneer 7200 having a built in crossover, this is the next step to bring this sound system perfection.Overall, these speakers sound excellent in the enclosures I built. The sound will vary in any other enclosure, and even more in a rear deck or door setup. I did hook them up “free air” before mounting in the boxes, and was mightily impressed. The lows are obviously strong, having passed the Alan Parsons Project “Sirius/Eye In the Sky” test and the Pink Floyd/ Nick Mason “One Of These Days(Live at Pompeii)/Set The Controls For the Heart Of the Sun(Live at Pompeii)” tests. The tweeters pass the Mannheim Steamroller - Fresh Aire 4 “Crystal” test. The midrange is clear, well reproduced like a pair of Bose 901s.These speakers are overkill for todays pop music, but can accurately reproduce the range and nuances of classic rock and classical music. Now, if I could only find a way to use a turntable in a moving vehicle…

They sound great over stock from my 2011 impala and for a very cheap price.

Very nice speakers. Complimented my system in my 57 Chevy.

Exelente

I have usually had a good experience with Pioneer products. Almost 50 years. These were no exception. Adding a sub under the seat makes this system rock. This system is in a standard cab pickup so power isn't an issue. For the price, they are hard to beat.

Came on time new in box and fit right in on my 96 accord.Sweet.

I used these to replace the stock speakers in my vehicle. For whatever reason I did not realize that these needed to be spliced onto the desired wires (I thought it might have plug and play connectors), so that was a fair amount of extra unexpected work (I chose to solder the wires after testing +/- wires).The multi-fit adapter was pretty nice, however I had some difficulty with fitting onto the rear deck of my 07 Camry, only due to the cutouts on the underside which caused a "raised" state when reassemblying, which made it difficult to clip the panels back in.All in all though, once these things are installed. The audio quality is suberp. They really care about this product and it shows. It was a massive audio upgrade for the car, and the price point was quite reasonable. If you look at it on either side, there's things half the price of this, but quality will likely be less, there's also things double the price of this, you have to consider whether you actually need a sound system that expensive in your car.These particular speakers are at a very nice "entry point" for an upgrade, where you still get audiophile quality sound withot breaking the bank. They sound amazing and are easily tuned using the equalizer on my head-unit. Installation was a fair amount of work so be prepared for that and be ready to splice.Excellent speakers, with a trusted brand that cares

These sound horrible. I downgraded in quality purchasing these speakers.
