I do completley agree a good set of components up front is high priority but from personal experience ive had no problem with my 6x9's.

Ive got a set of JL speakers in the front and JL VR 6x9's in the rear. There all amped off a 4 channel amp and 2 b honest the 6x9's play really well.

I considered getting some components for the rear but there really is no need. The 6x9's sound great and with the boot open there really loud.

Maybe its because they were £180 tho

It won't sound funny if you get a GOOD set of components and amp them. Standard components running off the HU are to quiet thats probably why it sounds funny.:)

I also have front 6.5" comps, 6x9s and a JL 12" sub all amped and to me it sounds good.
If you have no speakers tho id put a higher priority on some components and an amp for them than a set of 6x9's.

Get new 6.5" components and amp them. I only have front components which are amped and 1 12"sub and it sounds better than it did when I had 6x9s aswell.:thumbs:

the 6x9s will just pump out more bass which will mess with the bass coming from the sub. Especially with 2 of those subs you really dont need any extra bass.

just get some quality components to provide the higher notes

dont bother with 6*9s if you have a sub maybe 2. just buy the best components you can afford (6.5") and amp them.

I have a Sony MP40 Hu (soon to be an alpine HU) And i have a Vibe active 12" sub.

I plan on getting another 12" Vibe to put next to it, but i need to upgrade my rear speakers cos my current ones rattled and i've cut the wires to them.

I've heard 6x9's with Subs is a bad idea, also if i do get 6x9's should u connect them up to the HU or Amp them ?
