These are excellent for the price you pay. I installed them myself at the front door panel, piece of cake. The passive cross-over units are molded-in so you don't need to worry abt screws comming loose. For those of you who have had high-end component system, you know what I mean. These here are just "GOOD FOR ITS PRICE". That's all I am saying. I have had better ones but of course, I have an amp driving my previous more expensive component speakers. Also, because the speaker cables on the cross-over units are molded-in, it also means that you cannot use your high end speaker cables for these speakers. But of course, it may be an over-kill to get monster-cable for these speakers. Can't help but to stress that these are good for its price... 8) For now, I am driving these from my Head Unit (abt 20rms x 4) and the sound is REASONABLY good at AVERAGE volume. Alot also depends on whether your HU has a EQ. Mine has a 7 band EQ and I was able to tune the music to my pref, so that works for me. I have the TS-A6963R at the back panel to support these at the front. Good balance overall for a non-amp, non-fancy set up. Next, I should be installing a 4-channel for these (i.e., including the TS-A6963R at the back). Currently, my only complain is that the road noise does drown the sound a bit when I am driving at around 80mph. Turning up the vol causes some distortion... I guess that's the limitation when you drive these speakers without an AMP; you are not getting the best out of them... Of course, getting a sub-woofer (plus a second amp) to boost up the bass will be my third step. More then... Read my reviews for the TS-A6963R, I have installed them earlier... Cheers.

Pioneer will never cease to amaze me. These speakers sound fantastic in my wife's 93 Toyota Camry. We have them running off of deck power from a Pioneer reciever, we could not be more pleased. Thanks again for quality at an affordable price Amazon, oh and don't forget fast shipping.
