They could be blown, or there just fading out because you are playing them too loud.

Best is a matter of opinion... Some people will say Rainbows (I haven't heard them, so I don't know), some might say MB Quart (I like mine, but there could be better), and some will say Alpine (of course some people will say Alpine just because they like to say Alpine ).

How much are you looking to spend? Are you willing to run an aftermarket amplifier? For "best" sound, you'll have to have an amp. The "best" you can do on a low budget is a different answer.

Oh, and they are 6.5". Really standard size and not hard to replace.

i don't really care how much i spend on the speakers just not to much . But i just want to know if that is what the problem is. Is if there blown or just peaking out. An i thought i was gonna put my subs in my car but i don't think so, im still thinking about that one. So if i don't have the subs then i don't have to worry about a amp for the speakers.
