to sub or not to sub

[CMF_Gary Fintelman]

the question is, 6x9s or a sub?

any recommendations from people who have had both?

go the sub. 6x9s are no good i think. if you want speakers on the back your better off with just mid range ones because you get a bit of crackling with 6x9s, compered to mid range or splits.
all i have is the 6" splits in the front and an amp and sub in the boot. it sounds great no need for anything else.
thats what i think anyway

I got 6x9's in now and Im definately going to 8" subs. If your running tweaters the subs are far superior IMO.

Go with splits and a sub. You won't even be able to compare coax 6x9's to a decent splits + sub combination.

I've currently got jaycar 6.5" splits in my doors and i'm currently integrating a qmax invisabass6 into my cargo tray. The splits sound good on their own, but it needs a sub.

got a 10" sub in the boot of mine and its great! even with stock speakers

decent 4 channel amp to run the whole thing is the key though
