Change is an unknown quantity at this point
Aftermarket 6.5" rounds with wide frequency response

I got a Kenwood KDC-X579 deck and two pairs of Kenwood KFC-1679 speakers. I've been somewhat lazy and only got the deck and front speakers installed so far, so I noticed that the new Kenwood speakers in the front have no low-end response at all, while the stock speakers have plenty. They claim to go down to 35Hz, but there's just no amplitude down there. The mid and high range sounds good though. I've got too much stuff in my trunk to want to cram a sub back there too (not to mention not wanting to spend too much money), so I was wondering if there's a set of 6.5" speakers that have a nice, even frequency response range. If not, I'll likely just go back to the stock speakers.

yeah, but you'll pay around $300 on ebay, and $500 in a store for them. And you'll need about 125 wattsx2 for them, so an amp is necessary.
