GTX 401 4-Inch 240W 4-Way Coaxial Car Audio Speaker

GOOD

Sound great for 4 inch speakers

Great 4 inch speakers. Direct fit for my 1979 MGB. Clear and great sound even on highway speed with top down.

I bought these as part of hubby's Christmas gift. He says they sound good. He's wondering if replacing the car stero would help get the sound even better. ( It's a 2001 car with the original stereo.)

(Basically a copy of the review that I did for the GTX350, but these are similar and in the same installation.) I bought these on a whim because I set a $100 whole-system cap on my new (to me) 2004 Saab 9-3. I kept looking for things to replicate the Boston Acoustics 3.5's that are now discontinued. Since there wasn't anything, I just bought these. They're obviously a Chinese product banking on a name that used to be big in German hi-fi, but all the same they are pretty good. These are in the rear deck in this case, and replaced a cone 4' setup that was mediocre at best. Bass in this system really comes from a pair of "subs" in the front doors, but whatever goes to these speakers in the rear is rendered really well. Sort of unexpected to have 4-way speakers in this size, too. Saabs of this vintage have a weird fiber optic stereo, so speaker upgrades are about all you can do. That said, these made a huge difference over the factory Pioneer paper cones. For $25, this was a great buy.
