Reddit mentions of Alpine SPR-60C 6.5" Car Audio Component System (Pair)

$300 for 4 speakers? Thats a pretty good budget.

I would personally buy these 6.5's and these 6x9's. Now, i have the first set of speakers i linked, and so do a lot of the people on this subreddit. They are pretty nice sounding speakers, and will get as loud as you need. I linked those 6x9's because they are the same model as the first, just different size.


Also, i saved you $50, that you should spend on deadening.

for $200... Component speakers up front is your only reasonable option. Best components in your price range is....

Ridiculously overpriced but thats just my opinion. I had alpine type r components in front, two way in rears a 12in sub and alpine 5 channel amp for about $600 cheaper. Sure the sub is nice since its out of the way but you can purchase that separately if you want it. The amp was the most expensive piece it was like $400-500. You're better off buying a 4 channel amp and getting aftermarket speakers.

Here are the specs on the type r components:

110 Watts RMS
330 Watts Peak

The speakers alone will trash that system.

componenets $150

2 way $100

pdx-f4 $305

or

pdx-v9 $430

then pick a sub and it'll still be a better deal than the oem system.

I personally like the SPR-60C set from Alpine, about $150 and I think the Pioneer digital amp line is an outstanding value. The GM-D1004 looks like a great match with power to spare for only $100 street. It's twice as powerful as the Alpine power pack for the same money or less.

I use a similar setup, with my amp being pretty much the same except older and without the slick form factor. Feeding 200W RMS into each side gives me the ability to extract all the speakers are capable of delivering, which is sufficient for even top down at highway speeds and a reasonable amount of bass for the speaker size without a sub. The extra power gives you options. You can get pretty bassy if you're not cranking it, or you can get pretty loud with less bass. You're not lacking on the power to do so, only the physical limitations of the speaker. You will not be disappointed for $250 combined!

I cannot tell you 100% if they're the best for the price, but I can tell you that I really liked the sound of them when I owned them. Keep in mind that part of having a good sounding speaker is having them properly installed. I put some cheap sound deadening mat inside doors (home depot stuff) in the doors along with MDF ring bases and was really satisfied with their capabilities. Here you can see the reviews on amazon. I recommend going through the questions people have had on these speakers.

Thanks for the comment!

what do you think of these http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-SPR-60C-Audio-Component-System/dp/B004VBIEZW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371929199&sr=8-1&keywords=SPR-60C

would you recommend getting coaxial speakers in the rear?

So I'm thinking This amp with 2 sets of These speakers. I had and Alpine amp and speakers in my old truck and I never had any issues with them and they had no distortion when I cranked them up. I figure I might as well replace them all at once.

Thanks for the info. Do you think the MTX amp would be worth it in the long run (like, would the Power Acoustik amp die on me)?

Also: I've heard that these Alpines are great speakers and I am wondering if it would be worth it to shell out the extra $50. Or maybe I should go with these Polks. You seem to be pretty educated when it comes to audio; what would your choice be?

Do you mean these?
