    I have the 6x9's TR's up front and the 6.75's TR's in the back. For me the TR's get the job done.

    Yeah dude! No problems, they were very helpful and patient. I couldn't talk straight after coming home from work, 12 hr swing shift so I was up for 20hrs at that point.

    As for the XRs they are hella expensive, even online. Couldn't fathom what a local store let alone Best Buy would charge if they had them.

    No sub, and wanting 6x9 for bass = Image Dynamics XS69 as best choice that I'm aware of. Add amp with > 100 watts RMS @ 4 ohm and you'll be smiling. 150RMS = smiling with teeth chattering.

    Dampen the doors big time to prevent rattles though.
