As I've said in a couple other threads, I'm looking for speakers for my 2000
Silverado Ext. Cab. According to Crutchfield, anything from 5 1/4 to 6 3/4
inch speakers will fit. I don't really know where to find the most bang for
my buck, though. I have a spare 4 channel amp here so I want some speakers
that can handle some juice. Any suggestions?

I know it's difficult to chooose which to choose. I think you have to
try
demo speaker before you buy because most saleman want you to buy most
expensive one. It is not only the price matter the most but the type of
music you listen to. I've found out that not all speaker responding
same
way. Some speakers can't handle today's low bass type of music like
Hip-Hop. My speaker is lower one so it can't handle Hip-Hop but it
works well on 60's and
70's music. I mean you don't install big subwoofer just for listening
to
classical music. It's up to you to decide.

I just bought apair of 3-way Infinity 63.5i 6 3/4" round speakers. I
only paid 90.00. Polk and MB Quartz also make great speakers.

I mean you don't install big subwoofer just for listening
to
classical music.

Why not? Are the frequencies below 100Hz or so absent in classical music?
Or is it that you don't know what you're talking about? (my guess is the
latter)

Really? How would you properly reproduce the ~10hz lower keys that an
organ can produce?

It's up to deciding the level of reproduction one wants.

Why don't you try yourself? Adjust your amp to LPF and play classical
music and see if you can hear any of it.

There isn't constant low frequency information.. but some instruments do
occasionally play infrasonic stuff.

Obviously you won't hear your subs during a flutist's solo.

Yes, I've listened to classical music on my stereo system before, thanks.
It's some of the most difficult music to reproduce. And you can't do it
correctly without subs.

For many years I had great home systems but they were always missing
something. When I finally installed a sub it was like a revelation.
I finally had what was missing from my system. So in short I would
never have a system without a sub. In all honesty I was suprised on how
much bass my Polk Momo 6 x 9 speakers produce. However, I really have
to turn up my sytem to get any bass.

Contra bass overtones?

Tuba?

Look at piano fundamental in the lowest octave, better yet just WATCH the
bottom string.

Ever heard a properly primed concert bass drum?

Many ethno instruments do go WAY down there. Pick up a copy of Mickey
Hart's, Planet Drum. Prepare to be moved.
