Comments: These speakers added a good bit of the high-bandwidth sound to the soundbar. Seems like there is a lot more liveliness in the speakers now!

| Pros | Price (friends pawnshop) Fit well in factory location. |
| Cons | It maybe that they are not amped (yet) and are the sound is coming from a crappy deck... but the mids are low and the highs are harsh. |
| Recommended | no |
Comments: I am assuming that the kicker DS is the same as the kicker DS 5 1/4" entry level speakers I picked up from my buddies pawnshop for a song.
They are a deff. upgrade for stock, and for $5 I would suggest them... however most people will pay $50+ and for that kind of money I bet you can find better.

| Pros | Sound good, plug-and-play |
| Cons | None really. A few screws were a pain during installation. |
| Recommended | yes |
Comments: A bought these from Quadratec because they were plug-and-play from the factory with no wiring. They replaced my toasted factory sound bar speakers.
They sound really good. I'm pleased with them. They are not a good bass speaker, however, and they leave a little to be desired with the doors and top off.
Install is not hard, but patience is required to find the screw holes through the fabric.
Overall I am happy with these speaker.

| Pros | Great high/mids |
| Cons | Definitely need sub with these speakers |
| Recommended | yes |
Comments: Bought from Crutchfield at a good price, the soundbar was fairly easy to install, though the front driver's side dash took a while. I put the 2-way DS in the soundbar and the component DS in the dash/tweeter. The tweeter replacement took less than 10 minutes for both and fits the stock enclosure well. I routed the crossover box on the side panel and was able to fit it in nicely.
| Price | $150 |
| Pros | Amazing sound, easy to install, powerful bass and crisp highs. |
| Cons | had to drill new holes to bolt these in but nothing too major. |
| Recommended | yes |
Comments: Good speakers, I got 2 set's of DS65's for $150.00 and they sound great. Coupled with the infinity gold amplifier they make a nice affordable sound system. I did have to drill new holes for the speakers to fit, but it was nothing too major with a drill bit and a tap set.

Comments: •Regarding the mod: I don't consider it a con as much as a heads up. The modification is easy, even for a novice. But it is worth noting. If you aren't handy with tools, there's no way to put 5" speakers in the dash.
•As to the bass: since you're better off with a sub anyway for bass, I don't think it's a deal-breaker. But if you're ONLY going to have dash and soundbar, there are speakers on the market which give better bass. The pioneer speakers I replaced had better bass. At the same time, the mids and highs are much better on these and I consider this an improvement.
