SOUND STORM GS365 GS 6.5" 3-way 300-watt Full Range Speakers

Have had 2 sets of these installed for about 10 days now. Big improvement over the paper cone OEM speakers that came with my vehicle. Tweeters are directional a few degrees in all directions with included install brackets/rings. Sounds seems well balanced for this price point and product seems decently made. Due to this products efficiency rating of 92dB (@ 1 Watt/1 Meter), high volume is easily acheived using just the built-in amps in my head unit with out distortion.Packaging: typical speaker package, all the needed hardware and accessories included to complete the install. Grills, crossover, two types of tweeter mounts (flush or surface), pre-installed wire (18 gauge wire), brackets, screws, etc.Crossover: is compact, pre-wired, and pre-labeled for mid and high drivers, comes with double stick tape/foam to mount to most surfaces. I have the crossovers stuck to the inside wall of my front and rear doors with no power window clearance issues. Just watch what direction you run your wires inside to door to prevent snags or hang ups on the window. Once I got my wires positioned to run to the mid-bass and tweeter and tested it by lowering the power windows I used tape to hold the wires and secure it in place.Mid-bass driver: sturdy construction optional grills, not much more to say about it.Tweeter: two install options, mounting ring a little tricky to snap in place, but once you get one done it's easy to duplicate the process to the others. Try not to press on the center of the tweeter grill when taking the mount rings on or off, could dent in. I personally didn't dent in the grill, and applied a reasonable amount of force with my thumbs, but in retrospect I should have pressed more to the edges. Tweeters can be pointed in any direction a few degrees if needed for accuracy.Opinions based on 24 years of do-it-yourself car electronics installation experience and 8 years of home audio/video professional sales experience. I've always had aftermarket speakers/head units in my cars/trucks - I recommend this product for quick upgrade.Installed in: 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, front and rear doorsMid-mass installed in factory door positions (using Scosche SAGMHR634B)Tweeter installed flush in door panel, cut-out made with hole saw drill attachmentpowered by Pioneer AVIC-F900BT - 50w x 4 max

Not bad for the money. Dropped one 6x9 and broke the cone. Super glued it bak together. The speakers sound ok with my cheap head unit. So I added a Rockville RVB12.1A 12" 500 W sub and BAMM! Now my boat rocks. Super system for under $200 and if it gets stolen or damaged I can actually afford to replace it.

I think these are very decent speakers for the price. I bought them to replace the old blown speakers in the doors of my pickup. I really didn't want to spend a lot for speakers and just wanted something that would last and sound decent enough to hear over road noise and the drone from the oversized tires I have on my truck. These SSL speakers with their 50Hz to 20KHz range seem to fit the bill. Installation was pretty straight forward and the sound quality for these speakers is quite good, especially when considering the price. The speakers themselves seem well made, with black painted frames and poly woofer cones along with butyl rubber surrounds instead of just foam. The black wire mesh grilles also seem nicely made, but I didn't need them for my installation since the speakers were mounted behind the door panels. A bag of mounting screws and two rolls of thin gauge speaker wire with factory installed push on connecters was also included. Overall, I think these speakers were a good buy and the price for them here on Amazon was also very reasonable.

Purchased these to replace my factory front door speakers in 04 MINI Cooper S. One of my stock tweeters was crackling so I bought a new set of fronts. I'll be honest here.. I was a car audio/video/security specialist for almost 10 years. I have installed it all from JL and Hertz to Power Accoustic and Boss. Being that I had never hear of this brand before I decided to give them a try.I bought all new sound deadening and new mounting adaptors for the front doors so the fit was nice and the panels didn't vibrate. The woofers mount seamlessly and the tweeters are small enough to fit in the factory location with minor modification to the stock mount. The one thing that concerned me was the crossover. It was so tiny and flimsy that when I took it out of the plastic it was wrapped in the cover came off. This was fortuitous in that it revealed cheap components and poor quality wire. The wiring had black marks (oxidation) on it which in this industry is bad. Oxygen free copper should be used for this and I would expect at least a 12dB crossover. This appeared to be only 6dB.I proceeded to finish the install since there are glorious reviews and who knows.. They may be great. These seriously do not live up to the glowing reviews I read on here. The tweeter is crossed over way too high and only produces tinny noises which seem to be 10kHz or above and the woofer really doesn't have any lower frequency response to speak of. My factory 5ohm paper cone speakers sounded better. I double checked my wiring for phase and tried adjusting the stereo but it just sounds bad.In summary... Don't waste your time. Spend $10-20 more for a better set. Heck I'm returning mine and going to order Alpine Type-E components for about the same price. At least I know they will be quality.
