Thick Brick 40th Anniversary Combo

I replaced 10 year old factory speakers in my 2003 Nissan Altima doors with a pair of these Pioneer 1664R's. First I had them in there a week with the factory head unit. It took me 30 minutes to install both of them and I had not worked on a car speaker install in 30 years.
Nothing to it. I noticed an immediate gain in quality of sound, clarity and volume with the factory head unit. I would recommend them just for that.
The next week I installed a Kenwood DNX1690HD DVD Nav system and these speakers had no problems cranking out 50 watts per channel. With the added volume the clarity of the highs and mids was excellent, much better than with the factory head unit. The Kenwood has adjustable cross-overs and you can get quite a range out of these speakers. Great mid-tones and highs that I can't even hear at my age. The aftermarket head unit made these speakers sound as good as the Polk Audio Db651's and Alpine Type S speakers I listened to....at a fraction of the price. Low price doesn't mean low quality with these Pioneer speakers. Buy them and you will like them. I listen mostly to classic rock, metal, Zappa, Tool, Metallica type stuff. Let me tell you, these Pioneer speakers are holding their own against 1250 watts to 2 Cerwin Vega 12's in the trunk and a pair of Alpine SPS-619's in the rear deck. Can't beat that for the price.
