I think they sound great. I don't really push tons of volume through them, but in the small room I've got them in they sound nice and full. I dropped them into a pair of old radio shack enclosures. Can't beat the price

I put these in my 1999 Celica and they seem to make the factory system sound great. Of course the former speakers were blown. Bass is punchy and pretty damn good for door speakers. I think the system lacks some in the mid range, but the rear speakers are still a little dodgy and replacing them will probably do the trick. Note the factory speakers were impeadance 2 ohm and 25 watt. These are very different rated and only experimentation would demonstrate a superb speaker through comparison. I am pleased with the sound and the price. I would rather some infinity speakers but I might pay 3 times more and get only a little better sound, plus I didn't find any 8" ones, and these were a steal.

You shouldn't notice much difference in sound from when these are new and after they have played for a couple thousand hours... These are surround speakers so should be either the rear or side speakers which get very little use. Effect speakers in general see under 5% of what the front sound stage will see... I have never seen any proof that speakers needed to "break in", hook them up and enjoy...

do the 'mods', i.e., at least remove the tweeters from the faceplates and seal them to the faceplates/tweeters mating surfaces with plumbers putty, and super glue each woofer cones' shield can to the baskets.damping these with 4" of rockwool bats behind the drivers an two inches on the rest of the interior surfaces (save for the duct exhaust areas) will yield hifi speakers on the cheap ;)

I replaced the woofers in my Infinity center speaker with these, they fit perfectly. I can't tell how the sound quality compares though, but they at least don't sound bad.

Hi Peter, I work for a home cinema company and have these on a Marantz 8801. They are the most under rated speaker on the market, they can be a little bass heavy (it is controlled bass mind you) this is easily adjusted anyway in a nutshell Amazing speakers and massively under priced :)

They will fit. Mine sound great but I have an amp powering them. They will be better than stock but unless you add an amp you may not be blown away with the difference in sound. Add an amp and you'll be amazed at how good they sound for the price.

Yes, they will work fine with that system and will be able to handle the power. I believe they would be a great addition to your surround system. I simply love the ones I purchased and have had no problems what so ever.

hey man if the speakers came from the Sansung 1000 watt,you can assuredly put them into play on yer new samsung 1000 watt,I mean it would seem that the impedence,and crossovers that are already incorparated in yer speakers are newer should if anything sound BETTER as they are using a newer version(but same wattage etc) Honestly I would see NO problem with this move...blessings on ya.......eddie

They will work.For an idea of the sound quality see the many reviews of this product - many from advanced audiophiles. They only have 3.5" woofers so you can't expect them to do a whole lot with deep bass, however, in my opinion based on the TVs (CRT, Plasma & LED) I've owned they will be able to out perform most TV built in speakers. I enjoy them for surround speakers in 7.1 systems (not for Left right or center channel) where I also have a Subwoofer, and I like them very much.

They will work with any receiver/amp, as to how well, you will need to match up specifications. You have given no information about your receiver so at this point you are the only one who knows. You must compare numbers, it never hurts to have some more power than is recommended. Common sense still applies in operation and usage of said power. Aside from all that, these are amazing speakers for their price. Enjoy.

you should be fine.. just make sure don't over power them.. you can blow the speakers.. they hit hard.. sound good with my amp..alpine and alpine head unit

Hello JT, I utilize the AudioEngine D1 DAC while testing these speakers and do not have a problem, they work great! Michael @ Kraft Street Audio

They will work fine. They are 2 ohm but it's more for power purpose. They will sound loud with lower wattage. Don't expect bass. They have crisp highs and they are a good rear fill speaker.

Hey Phillip -- I am no expert and do not own these speakers but the its a pretty good relaibel rule to ever add speakers. You will mess up the impedance math and degrade sound and could evenutally blow your amp.

More power is better. I installed these in a Lincoln Continental. I used a four channel 125 watt @ 2 ohms amplifier in my set up. This was more than enough power for these speakers. Infinity is known for their treble frequency reproduction. These are quality speakers at a reasonable price. If your just replacing your factory speakers.. You should consider at least installing an aftermarket head unit. You can really push these speakers. They sound best with adequate power. Under powering ANY speaker will give you subpar performance.. Installing an amp is a simple concept. Tuning your amp and speakers is more complex.

Just my 02 since I have them. Mine are hooked up to a low power amp. 45wpc if I remember right. That sound good but do not produce a lot of bass. I'm thinking without an amp they would produce even less bass. Hopefully someone has tried them without an amp. The good point on these is I'm hearing far more detail in the music than I ever heard from 2 way and 3 way all in one speakers. I would recommend them even without an amp for that reason. I have the tweeters mounted on the plastic cover behind the side mirrors. It's easier when you keep the wiring within the doors.
