I'm upgrading my 02 screw speakers....... Going with components but I'm not sure if I should go with 5.25" or 6.5" speakers?
I'm having a shop install whatever speakers I do end up with.......
What are others running and why?
The 5.25" would be cheaper in price & also cheaper to install at the shop as less custom work would be required........OR
Should I go with the 6.5"?

"If" I go with the 5.25" I can buy better components because I will save money on the install....... ---- Just not sure what to do?
Ideas?

Are you planning on powering these with a 4 channel? If so, the 6.5 for sure.

As for price and what not, grab a set of Polk MOMO separates on Ebay for CHEAP and be a happy man. They are GREAT speakers that are loud, muiscal, efficient, and don't hurt your ears like a lot of the aluminum and titanium dome tweets out there.

I've tried Infinity, JL XR, MB Quart RSD series, and Polk MOMOs and hands down I give it to the momos for best sound overall.

As for added cost on the install, heck, you could pull your own panels off and make a couple quick cuts and it would be cake.
