    I'm in need of replacing the fronts on the wife's Expedition.She or her friend blew them.It looks like a 5x7 or 6x8 will fit.I've done some searching and have come up with too many options.I was looking for the most efficient I could find because of keeping the stock h/u.I was leaning towards the Polk db's,but I put some in a friends truck and they didn't sound the way I thought they should.Basically,I just want to give her a step up without breaking the bank.100 bucks max.Any opinions?

    2 ohm's won't hurt my stock h/u?

    You could also seal and deaden the doors with Peel N Seel with the leftover cash.

    After driving the truck today,I noticed that all the speakers are blown.The back ones are way worse sounding than the fronts.

    Many factory speakers are 2-ohm. Your factory HU will be fine with those speakers. Also listen to a set of Infinity Referance 5 x 7, I personally like them more than the Kappas.

    The Referance are my second favorite, only Polks beat them out. But its a really close call for me

    I'm not sure on budget as of yet,just realizing more speakers are blown has really pi##ed me off.I'll go to a shop and give a listen to polk,infinity,and alpine because that's what's available.I'll keep you posted.
