I've got some good Kenwood 6x4 in my rear side panels, they sound ok, but need to be amped (christmas wish list)
I cant remeber the model but Kenwood only do one 6x4 speaker, with or without the cover

I've got Kenwood 6x9's in the rear quarters in mine ;D
I thought I had a pic, but I can't find it. I'll take another and show u.
They seem loud enough running off my Kenwood 9524 50x4w headunit. I've got a 12in Pioneer sub in a homemade box running off a bridged Sony 255ex Amp (300w). Bass is 'so so'. i want more! maybe 3 12in Alpines running off a Kenwood mono 1200w amp ;D

I've got twin sub tubes in my boot - sounds great! Theres about 600 watts running through the sytem (10 speakers!)
But only 4 are amped. the rest should get upgraded after christmas, so I should be looking at about 1000 watts when its all done. It sounds a bit excessive, but with roof down on a motorway, you need it!!!

I'm big into R&B and Hip-Hop, so I get a nice punchy base line reverbing the back number plate!! lol
