Like I said looking for the same quality of sound I had when the car was new. I really don't want to replace speakers as often as Window motors & sun visors.

Exactly dave, if youre gonna do it, do it right the first time so you arent doing it again in a year or so. And as far as race weight goes, I would imagaine my whole set up weighs close to 15 lbs or less, including amp and all. Thats not much difference and gives me an incentive to lose those 15lbs on myself.

I have Ian Kee's CDTs in my convertible, using the stock amp. They are a bit heavier than the flimsy stockers, though not excessively heavy. The sound is a difference like night and day and well worth the small difference in vehicle weight.

That's the thing I don't want to do it twice like the sun visors or window motors.

I'll probably give Kee a call.

Did mobile audio/video for a living for many years. GM speakers=crap , paper cone , crappy surrounds and I wouldn't give ya 5.00 for 'em . Get the Kee setup , Clif Designs is a very good company .....

i did like everybody else.. got the kee audio stuff, cut the stock plugs off the stock speakers, wired them up to the replacements...
Only thing i've noticed is now my front driver's side speaker isnt working. tweeter is, but the speaker itsself isnt. doesn't sound blown or anything, i assume its something with wiring.
I've just been too lazy to remove the door panel..

1 year factory warranty off the bat and offer an additional 10 year warranty that can be purchased for a small fee through them.

Check the wiring and let me know if you have any issues. CDT is VERY good about replacing anything that is wrong. I had a customer who had a bad tweeter a little while ago and he had a new tweeter from CDT in 3 days.

Liking the guy and his company is fine, but don't go overboard and into complete BS like you just did.

They go through ok but they don't end up getting to me. It has been a huge problem.
Anyway, I have 6.5" TS-V6 DVC subs in stock and will be getting more 6.5" Bazooka DVC subs in at the end of the month.
Both would do well with the stock system.
