Jump to my post dated today, having a engine rpm noise issue...

I am looking for new speakers for my factory 10 speaker system, and I want recommendations. I am looking to keep the speaker setups as factory as possible. I will not (I repeat, not ) be "hacking up" the door panels, kickpanels, or rear speaker mounts to put in monster speakers.

I really want your suggestions, .org members...

However,

I have a few rules;

#1 - I am an old(ish) man. This means I am not looking for a 24" subs in the hatch with 4 1000w amps... Actually, I am not looking for any subs at all. ( I like my ear drums intact, thank you very much...)

#2 - I am not a lottery winner. This means that $150 per speaker for a 10 speaker systme is not an option... I would like nice, full, rich sound, but don't want to go into debt to listen to good music. That is my goal. (Cost is revelent.)

#3 - Ease of installation. I am quite handy at making silk purses out of sow's ears, but I am not looking to re-invent the wheel either...

#4 - I would like the finished result to resemble OE. I want my audio system to appear as if it came from the "MotherLand", not like it came from "JDM Land".

I would appreciate (no, I really want) your suggestions and comments.

(Flame me if you want, but remember, I am asbestoes to your Bic lighter

)

Thank you .org (in advance)...
