    that sounds either like bull**** or like an amplifier...

    OP, just do what they're telling you to... Bassy 6x9's dont exist.

    Im not looking for ridiculous bass, something in the terms of original speakers. They had plenty of bass for my taste.
    2001 GT Special Edition - 208k miles, junkyard status. Part out in progress.

    We're not talking about ridiculous bass either. If you've ever noticed my threads I hate that rattling announcement crap that you hear from a mile out.

    What we're referring to is the ability of a speaker to hit 20hz or somewhere near that. A 6x9 isn't going to do bass any justice when it starts rolling off at 60hz or 50hz. If you think it does...tell me how that works out after somebody "EQ's" your system and blows them. You can have simple bass and simple setups on the cheap if you pay attention to REAL WORLD PHYSICS vs. car audio marketing/forum snake oil rants.

    LOLOL bass is bass no matter how you look at it or even hear it!!

    sounds like your gona kill the 6x9s to get the bassy from them..
    a "proper" set-up (x over'd correctly) will have good mid bass....
    but u NEED a sub to blend the sound correctly = SOUNDS VERY VERY GOOD!!

    List your home audio setup in a PM.

    Rob, Tang Bang makes two 6x9 subwoofers.

    Coaxial tweeters would be worse.

    They'd always be blocked by someones legs.
