Alpine Type-E Series SXE-1750S Car Audio 6.5-Inch Component 2-Way Speakers

Comes with everything I needed for my 2007 Chevy 1500 classic, base model. Factory speakers were muddy/ static at low volume levels, probably abused by previous owner, installed these, problem solved. Many other parts included for other configurations, Perfect fit for OEM replacement on my truck, minor wiring connector changes to use factory speaker leads required, no big deal. Great sound quality as always from Alpine. Stock stereo doesn't drive these speakers to thier full potential, I'm sure. Alpine decks and speakers for my OEM replacements/ upgrades all the way.P.S. : Do your research , ask somebody, whatever, don't get impatient with those door panels and break your hardware, if that snapped clip or fastener rattles or the panel is loose later you are probably gonna be sorry. And, Oh, Lord, hang on tight when driving those screws to secure the speakers, don't get crazy and puncture the surround. That sucks, trust me.OK, Amazon, your review is complete. Out of the 20 items I bought over the last 6 months, this is the only one I wrote about.Because I really like my tunes in my rigs. And if part of this helps just one other dude/ ette,....Peace

Had these just shy of 3 years now in an old '01 Chevy Blazer. They're a good cost-conscious upgrade from the factory front door speakers and dash tweeters. Not audiophile by a long shot, but decent for an old SUV.

I installed these in another car before and they have been fantastic for the last year. I had put Kicker coax speakers in my other car previously as well. I should have known the Kickers were crap when 2 of them blew in a row, I had to get 2 replacement sets from Crutchfield. Now that they are out of warranty, a third Kicker is making its death rattle and it's time to replace them for good. I ordered a set of these and they sound fantastic. Way more crisp and detailed than those kickers. They aren't high level audio, but for the price, these components sound pretty good.The have decent bass for their size when they loosen up. Took my first pair about about 2 months before I noticed they weren't as tight, a year in they sound really good. The tweeters are clear but not overpowering and don't hiss. Overall a good well-rounded set for any car.They are thin as well, so if you have issues with deep speakers hitting the window, get these, they are shallower than most of the stock speakers I'm replacing.

Longevity: 5 stars.Sound quality: 3 stars.Bought these in Nov 2013 and they're still running strong in mid-2023. These are loaded in a 2000 Subaru Forester with the tweeters fitting in the door tweeter spots. An 8" SSL underseat powered sub rounded out the install. These are powered by a basic Kenwood head unit that's also over a decade old.Pros: they sound very clear to me. They take abuse well. I've blown the budget Rockford and JBL speakers within a few years in this and other vehicles.Cons: Sounds is too clear? Tweeters are a bit too powerful in the position they are in. They use a filter cap as a high pass filter. Next time I'd opt for a crossover with volume adjustment or use a power amp. I usually just roll the highs off in the head unit. Compared to the JBL 650 these have zero bass and with the windows down, they’re shrill.2023-11 update: Installed a Kenwood KACM1814 and set it up at half power. Not long after, the tweeters blew. Soundstage is super midrangey now. I'll be planning to drop in something different, likely JBLs.

These speakers sound fantastic after a short break in. Mid bass is great, and the tweeters are crisp and clear without being harsh. I used to spend thousands of dollars when I put a sound system in one of my cars but the older I get the less sense that makes. These speakers sound almost as good as stuff costing 10 times more.Folks that are saying they don't have any bass might have one of several issues going on....make sure your doors are sealed, make sure you're driving them with some power, and make sure you understand they're mid bass speakers not subwoofers.

I suppose that it is true what they say about getting what you pay for. These speakers are OK, but I guess I was expecting more.I purchased these speakers to replace the front door speakers in my 2007 Pontiac Vibe (with the stock stereo system). The factory speakers sounded weak, and they are located down at the bottom of the door panel (which makes them sound muffled). I liked the Alpine name, and the fact that the tweeters were separate. I was hoping to solve the problem of an under-powered mid/low speaker AND also spread the sound around with the separate tweeter. Unfortunately, I only solved one of the issues. While I was able to get the tweeter moved a little higher on the door panel (I put it on the plastic cover piece opposite of the mirror), the speaker itself sounds weaker than the crappy cardboard factory speaker I took out (not much in the way of bass). Before I installed them, I had planned on purchasing another set for the rear. Now that they are in, I have decided not to.In addition to the mediocre sound, the speakers were a lot of work to install in my Vibe and required a fair bit of modification/fabrication to the existing speaker mounts (although this isn't really a fault of the Alpine speaker set).In hindsight, I am not sure if I would do it all over again. I like the separate tweeter, and the sound is no worse than it was before I began, but... I spent 3-4 hours installing them (and I am fairly experienced doing this kind of thing), and I am not sure I gained much on the sound end of the spectrum.
