would you recommend these as a replacement for my front door speakers in a 2007 H3? Additionally, how is the bass?

the bass with these 8in pioneers is really good. They will not replace the deep thump of a dedicated subwoofer but they will perform better than stock speakers.

Never having owned a Civic I can't give you an accurate answer. I will say that, being a much smaller vehicle than mine, the acoustics should be better and I would imagine these speakers will sound pretty good, even on a stock head.I'm sorry I can't give you a better answer.

I used these for replacements in my Ford van. They definitely sound crisper with better bass than the original speakers and the price is great. If you really want mega bass it's going to cost a lot more for additional enclosures and much pricier speakers.

They are Ok. I mean, they aren't booming bass, but they are certainly a very broad range of good sound. The bass is legit, but if you want huge bass, I'd suggest getting some bass speakers for your trunk or some stuff like that.

they work better then oem speakers. but you will need an amp to get the most of the. you will not be dissapointed!

Its probably still possible to fit them ! There good replacement speakers , just dont listen to them very loud they will blow , I blew my right side dash one and I got some 4 inch polk audio they sound even better!

These are solid speakers for the money as your two main front channels. I would recommend accompanying these w/ a sub woofer though as they are strong on midrange and treble, but not the deep bass. I bought a Polk Audio sub to go w/ these for $99 and my wife and I couldn't be happier.

They have reasonable bass. As I mention before they have to be broken in to fully appreciate. Bass is not great but good for the price of the speakers. Obviously there are other options out there with better bass and higher quality. If the price is not an issue I would recommend more research to be done.

My car had tweeters in the front doors already so it was easy to replace them with the new set as they were the same size. But I bought Two sets of these speakers one for the front and one set for the back doors the woofers fit both the front and the back. the back doors I chose to drill holes for mounting the tweeters which for my car was easy to do because the door skins are plastic and had a good flat area to mount them. They also come with hardware to surface mount them as well but you would have to figure out the best way to run the wire. The tweeter wires get connected to the larger speaker. By the way these speakers sound great. I replaced the stereo as well with a JVC unit.

I replaced the stock speakers with these and still used the stock radio system I got with the truck. These speakers do no need an amp, but you will hear a lot more treble and sound clarity. I thought stock speakers sounded muffled so I got these because they are 3-way and have more clarity. They are almost too much of high range where you could try 2 of these in rear seat area(if 4 door) and stock in front to hear the effects. You could go with all 4 speakers and add seperate bass speaker in back, but then you will need an amp. I still give them a thumbs up.

Great choice of speakers. I d say as long as the oem speakers are same size. Then yes. Go for it! !I'd pull one out n approximately measure old one. Then go from there. One thing to make job easier I'd spend the extra n buy the aftermarket to Oem speakers adapter harnesses. Not that expensive n will be able to leave existing wires uncut. Which is huge plus for later down the road n ya wanna sell vehicle ya can put the old junkers back in.. With out splicing!!Goodluck. Jam on!!Hope this post helps.

For the price you can't really beat these pair of 6.5s from Kenwood (I bought 4 total). The highs are clear and the mids produce good sound. The one speaker is easier to install than buying a component setup. Just make sure your wattage is within range or you could overpower them and cause them to distort.

they sound very clear, it just depends on what you are using them for and what type of system you have? I chose them as L/R front and rears and got a speakercraft AIM8-3 for center channel in my surround system. But if your just using them for music they will work great!

I currently use only my Pioneer head unit. They sound ok. Keep in mind, having an amp does provide a cleaner sound and better control over power to your speakers. I will however be replacing these speakers with Kickers that provide better mid bass response. The renegades are ok entry level speakers. Just not enough mid bass for my taste.

I was upgrading from stock w/ a PPI 900.4 amp and they sound great. The highs are very sharp (I would tune them down via my head unit EQ) and the midbass was a clear upgrade from the stock speakers. I would expect that the midbass would sound MUCH better if your doors were properly deadened (the single layer of Rammat wasn't enough). Overall I am very satisfied, like many in the blogosphere that have purchased the speakers. I'm selling my current car and put in some cheap stock speakers (w/o an amp, granted) and its night and day. I'd def recommend these JBLs!

I bought these for my 91 chevy caprice and they installed perfect for me. The wires for speakers are all the same one positive one negative. If you get them you wont be dissappointed. They give great bass n excellent sound quality. Ive had them for about a year now

In a 2012, "yes". They are pretty much the same amperage as stock....the magnets are much larger and the cone material higher quality. The change in sound is like night-and-day. I installed 4; 2 in dash and 2 in soundbar. Make sure you buy some cheap "pillow stuffing" and stuff the speaker cavities as much as possible, THEN install the speakers. This helps reduce or eliminate all the "plastic rattle" when volume is high.
