I opted for the following :

they all fit in the standard places ( the tweeters fit in the original mounting brackets :) )

will post pics/results when all fitted but the price was right anyway :)

still unsure wether to pop it in the beeza :shrug:
 
wired them up today , and they seem very good . you can wire them for full range , or mid/high only ( good if ya have a sub in the boot . Seem very good value for money .
 
It's a nice start for ICE :) Remember to use good quality wire! Autoleads stuff is pretty good.

in my opinion, I reckon just a good quality set of front speakers and a sub ran through an amp and/with a crossover is the best simple set-up :)

With speakers, alot of people won't really notice a difference if they had a £30 speaker and a £100 speaker in front of them if they didn't know which was which. But if you like good sound, it's better to go quality than quantity. Same goes for Amps! Just because it says 600 watts, it doesn't mean it's going to sound ok when you're trying to push out that much :D

Went on a bit of a rant there. Oops.


Enjoy your new ICE :)
 
Haha, being a musician I've seen this ploy used alot in live amplification advertisement. It'll say for example 1000 watts!!!!!!!!! (at 8ohms) when you have say, a 1200 watt speaker cabinet at 4ohms. When the impedance rating is changed to be the same as the speaker, you're actually only getting 500 watts.


Speaking of which.. My car amp is broken.. *posts thread*
