What's great about it: Sound
What's not so great: Nothing
These are absolutely amazing. I've used several different speakers in my truck, to fit & play along with my subs, & nothing could compare to these polk audios.
When i purchased mine through Bestbuy, it came with 4 speakers, and 2 tweeters. If you have a great amp, and a good deck or head unit, you can apply sound boost & they're ear drum blowing sound, great price for such great product!

What's great about it: Clarity
What's not so great: Lows
I bought these speakers (as well as Polk 4x6 plates) to replace the factory speakers in my 02'GMC Seirra. They are very easy to install, I would recommend looking up instructions on YouTube on how to remove your door panels and you will need a cheap wire terminal kit. These speakers deliver exceptional clarity. They have great highs and mids with average lows. You have to know that when buying aftermarket speakers that you're not going to get great lows. You will need either an amp or a dedicated sub for that. I would defiantly recommend these speakers to anyone looking to upgrade their speakers or looking for a decent set of highs for an elabrite system.

What's great about it: Great sound for a great price
What's not so great: Didn't include white marine grade speaker grilles
Fantastic sounding speaker at a great price. I upgraded the old boat speakers with these that I picked these up at the local Citrus Park Best Buy at Chris's recommendation (Great Installer). Only down side was that these speakers only come with auto speaker grilles which will rust in a marine environment. However, Chris remembered that Best Buy.com sold the marine speaker grilles separately. I found them on sale at Bestbuy.com and they were shipped free to my house less than a week later.

What's not so great: Nothing yet
I bought these speakers to replce the factory ones in 2 2012 Hyundai Tuscons. The difference was ten fold. Installation was pretty simple once I figured it out. Sound is awesome. Might consider using a small amp to get a little more out of them but even without it, they work great!!

What's great about it: Good bass, no need for an amp, sounds great!!
What's not so great: Nothing
I did a lot of research before I bought these speakers. I needed a new set because I was getting a new radio and new my stock speakers, that were not very good any way, were not going to be able to handle the extra power of the new head unit. I spent a lot of time reading reviews and sitting in the store listening to a number of speakers. I finally pulled the trigger on these and could not be happier!! They sound awesome with just using the head unit power (a must for me). For anyone looking for an awesome sounding speaker with good bass and great high’s this is the one.

What's great about it: Good factory replacement speaker
What's not so great: Just needs a bit more bass.
I purchased these to replace the front factory speaker in an 04 Odyssey which had gone bad and started to rattle. The installation was quite simple and they fit nicely into the door opening. The bass is nice but not as good as the factory speakers. and even though there are tweeters up top these 2 way's give a little more clarity to vocals with them mounted in door. I am thinking about buying a set of 6 1/2 baffles to bring out more bass. And pretty sure I will get another set for the rear as well. I upgraded to these after buying some Kenwoods on sale at BB and they totally lacked bass.

What's great about it: great price, great sound, awesome clarity!
What's not so great: only 2-way (3-way would be awesome)
I bought these over the winter to install in my 06 Tiburon when the weather got nice outside. Upon a few good weeks of nice weather I started installing these. I won a $100 best buy gift card and looked around for speakers and decided on these. Installing them only took like 20-30 minutes for both (had help from my brother). I currently am running these to an piece of junk jensen amp that I bought off my friend for $15 (sucks being poor, but can't beat a $15 amp). Despite the poor, low qaulity amp I am running these off of I have been very impressed in the sound quality. I have a set of kicker l5s running off a jl e series 1200 watt amp, so I run these speakers with bass boost off on my amp. They really help balance out the bass from the subs and the sound. My friends have all had many systems, and I have to say with these I have the best and most balanced system as far as bass/clarity goes. When the time and money permits I plan on picking up the DXi690 6x9s and a new amp. I would recommend these to anyone that is looking for clear and balanced speakers.

What's great about it: This is the sound I was looking for when adding amp and speakers.
What's not so great: Nothing. Should have bought these in the first place!!!
I bought 2 sets of Kenwood 6 1/2 speakers with a Kenwood 40x4 RMS amp for my 2012 Silverado with stock head unit. Installed the kenwood speakers without the amp and they sounded terrible. Had Best Buy install the amp, but speakers still sounded bad. Finally decided to buy 2 sets of these from my local best buy because they had a higher RMS wattage (65) than the Kenwoods (35 RMS). I have to say that these Polk Audio speakers sounded great, even at very high volume levels. The bass, mids and high ranges all sound great! Very pleased with purchase! They were on sale so price was right also.

What's great about it: Brakets make install in my Audi EASY!!
If you are looking for BASS, buy a sub. I had the old DB series in my old vehicle and when my speakers took a dump on my, thought i would try the new DXI's. Overall these speakers are great, If you have a Audi/VW/BMW these come with a great braket so they fit perfect. Only reason i gave a 4 star instead of a 5 is becasue at very high volume, you get a little crackin. But I dont play my music that load anymore.

What's great about it: Clean ringing highs, substantially more bass than I expected, little if any distortion
What's not so great: nothing
These coaxial speakers are simply amazing. My Sony Xplod deck powers these, along with another pair of Polk components in the front and stock speakers in the cargo area of my car, quite adequately. In fact, this pairing is surprisingly effective since they are from two different manufacturers.
The Polk's highs ring true and clear while the lows literally shake not only the car, but the passengers as well--with no distortion. These speakers are shockingly well designed and made.

What's great about it: Full, rich sound, good price, decent bass for their size
What's not so great: nothing so far
These speakers rock! I have a 2003 GMC Sierra ext cab and the stock speakers just weren't cutting it for me. I put these up front and Polk's DB461 in the back and put a Sony deck in. Let me tell you, the clarity of these speakers is phenomenal. Very rich tone that suits any liking of music, at all volume levels. They are not real big in the bass department but hey, you can't expect much from this size of speaker which is why they make sub-woofers. All-in-all, if you are looking for a speaker with very good, rich sound that won't break the bank, go with these. You will not be disappointed. I would recommend these to a friend any day. Buy them!

What's great about it: Great price & easy install.
I used these to replace a couple of OEM speakers that had given up the ghost. I liked them so much, I went back and bought another pair to replace all four OEM speakers in my '04 GMC Envoy. They have great sound, but were a little muddy on the low end when installed in my truck. I solved that with a little insulation in the doors and some EQ tweaks. Now they sound even better! Great bargain at $75/pr on sale at BB.

What's great about it: Looks good, and sounds good
What's not so great: Poor quality build, bass driver rubber goes unglued
I bought two sets from local best buy store, that means 4 speakers. Brand new in the box. I installed the speakers and found out that one of the is destorting under just medium volume from my pioneer deck. Upon further inspecting the problem speaker I found out that rubber around the edge of the speaker got unglued, causing the bass driver to flap around. Then I used my finger nail just to see if I can peal the other speaker rubber and was easy to do. I know for fact that these have poor glue, simply won't last. I had to use glue to glue them back on. I used google search and found more people with same problem. Destorting badly under bass.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
