Looking for some suggestions for 4x6 replacements. I would like the loudest with no distortion from a pair of 4x6's. These will not be hooked to an amplifier. What's everybody's opinions.
Also would like to keep the price under or around $100.

To be honest, aftermarket 4x6 speakers won't improve sound quality enough to justify spending 100 bucks, at least in my opinion. ESPECIALLY if they aren't hooked up to an amp.
What you SHOULD do, is make an adapter for a 6.5". I think the how-to is located somewhere in the forum sticky (I'm too lazy to find it. Search
)
Take it from someone who learned the hard way. I went out and bought a pair of 4x6 kenwoods for something like 95 bucks, and was severely disappointed with the end result.
No one makes good 4x6s. Its an undesirable size for good performance. Either make 6.5" baffles or save your money. Especially since theyre going to be running off of a head unit and not an amp.
Well I saw someone selling some adaptors to fit 5 1/4" speakers. So how but some suggestions for 5 1/4"?

for ~100 and not hooking up to an amp your gonna want coaxials so i would say grab a pair of
type-r's or go a little over budget for some

I have a set of alpine type r 6.5 in my fronts using a honda speaker adapeter. Works great.

Would you happen to have a link for the adaptors?

Ive got a pair of these Clarion 4X6 plate speakers in my doors, with a 4" speaker and 3/4" tweeter. Im running them and my rear Clarion 6X9's off my head unit and ive got no complaints with them at all. Price was just over $100.

Yea thats similar to what i did however i was fortunate enough to find some adapter rings for 6.5"s at a local best buy store for like 20 bucks for mine all i had to do is drill a few holes.
i switched mine to polk audio DXi 4x6's... sound quality is awesome
is there a chance that the door panels would not fit on my 2002 sunfire if I put 5 x7s in? I would of course make the adapter rings as low profile as possible.
I am looking for struts for my newly aquired Eibach pro-kit performance coils, If anybody has some?
Why would you even want to do that? Do you just have 5x7's lying around?
If you're buying, buy 6.5
Yeah I just have 5 x 7s lying around. why would you say just buy some 6.5s?

Because they are a better design and will sound and perform far better than an oddball oval speaker.
On the other hand....you have other fingers.
