[QUOTE="shackles, post: 7879593, member: 643897"] I had a friend who had those in his car and other than being loud they sounded like a cheap pair of speakers being overdriven when compared to today's set ups with separate components, high power subs and amps with lots of dynamic headroom. I had some of the "loud" types of car audio equipment in the day including Craig Powerplay with the booster amps, etc. And while this equipment sounded good in the day and played "loud", it's a far cry from the high quality sound possible today. And those surface mount speaker setups sounded especially bad. If you want strictly a vintage look and sound then you can go with that stuff, if you can find it, but for great sound use modern equipment. JMHO. [/QUOTE]
