by Buck Pomerantz Top-tier sound The sonic specialists at Alpine optimize their SPS-610 6-3/4" speakers for great range and impressive tone definition, even at low power levels. You can connect these versatile Type-S Series speakers to your factory stereo for an immediate sonic improvement, or hook them up to a powerful aftermarket stereo or amp for increased performance. Mineral-fortified polypropylene cones are exceptionally stiff, yet lightweight, which means they can push out accurate bass and deliver clear midrange. Resilient rubber surrounds help keep the woofer centered for accurate cone movement, reducing distortion. Silk dome tweeters bring out all the details in your music. Grilles are not included — factory grilles are appropriate for most installations. Note: Alpine describes this model as a 6-1/2" speaker. Most manufacturers designate this same frame size as a 6-3/4" speaker. For simplicity's sake we list it as a 6-3/4" speaker. Priced per pair Note: Sorry, Crutchfield cannot ship Alpine products to Guam or Puerto Rico. Product Highlights:6-3/4" 2-way speakers (pair)includes adapter rings for 6-1/2" openingsmineral-fortified polypropylene woofer cone with rubber surround1" silk dome tweeterpower range: 2-80 watts RMS (240 watts peak power)frequency response: 70-22,000 Hzsensitivity: 88 dBtop-mount depth: 2-1/4"grilles not includedwarranty: 1 yearOur 60-day money-back guarantee Why replace your factory speakers? The speakers that originally came in your car were made from inexpensive materials, designed to create acceptable sound at the lowest possible cost to the manufacturer. If you love music, you deserve better. Name-brand aftermarket speakers deliver fuller, richer sound with considerably more detail and nuance, and they're capable of playing louder and cleaner than factory speakers. Connect new speakers to your factory radio and you'll get the best possible sound from your dealer-equipped system. Pair them up with a new car stereo for a level of enjoyment that can rival a high-fidelity home audio experience.
I thought there were SO-SO Untill Written By The Prez, Wisconsin on Monday, April 27, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I got these speakers thinking they had passive crossovers(nope) they were inline. So I installed them into my 2010 Silverado and sounded barely better than stock. 2 days later I installed a Kenwood DDX492 and OHHHHH my what a difference it made. With the controllable crossover , bass boost and 5 channel EQ these things sound great. 2 days from now I will be pairing it up with a xr900-5 kenwood amp and will modify this review Pros: great and clear sounding Cons: need more than just the factory deck
Alpine SPS-610 Written By Anonymous, South Carolina on Monday, March 16, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased these speakers as factory replacements in the rear of my '08 Frontier. The quality of sound is far better than the factory speakers! They are very crisp and responsive. As other reviewers have stated, there is very little bass output from these. They match well with the 6 x 9's in the front, creating a full sound throughout the cab. Pros: Great factory replacement. Cons: Very little bass response.
Awesome Sound Written By mikeymike, South Boston VA on Tuesday, March 03, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product. I am a huge Alpine fan and I was debating on getting these or the type r for a little more money. Decided to go with these since I was adding other type s speakers in my FJ Cruiser. Love the fact that Crutchfield sells the adapters so I could fit these in my 6x9 openings. These speakers really don't provide a lot of bass but that was what I wanted since I added 2 12" Type R Alpine's with a 1200wt amp. The set up right now is perfect with the bass from the subs and the highs and mids from these. Think I made the best decision with I purchased Alpine from my CD player all the way back to my subs. Pros: Clear Highs Strong Mids Easy to install Cons: None
Great sound quality Written By Michael, California on Sunday, March 01, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I installed these in the rear doors of my 2007 Silverado. The sound is great. It would have been good to have installation instructions, especially with the spacer plates. Once I figured it out the install was smooth. The sound quality is great. Pros: Awesome sound quality. Cons: None
Alpine SPS-610 Written By Steve, CT on Thursday, February 26, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very easy to install, much easier than Crutchfield led me to believe, however I am very displeased with the performance. I bought these and the component version for my truck. The component version sounds amazing, very clear with alot of bass drive and clear treble. However these were crackling right out of the box at mid-loud volume, possible i could have gotten a bad set. May be returning them very soon and bite the bullet and drill tweeter holes so i can install the component speakers in the rear of my truck. Pros: Easy to install Cons: Poor sound quality, crackling sound.
Great sound Written By Anonymous, Oxnard on Tuesday, February 24, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I replace my factory speakers on my 07 silverado with these alpine speakers. Big sound difference. Can't wait to add an amp to it. I recommend it.
Best bump for your hard earned lump ! Written By Anonymous, Texas on Wednesday, January 28, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) First time buying the size 6 1/2 Alpine Type-S speakers, although I do have experience with their 6x9's and bought these because I loved what they offer in terms of quality construction and sound for your money. These went into the front doors of a 4 door Acura Integra and I will be the first to say you may need to use your old speakers spacers with mild modification, along with the new spacers provided by Alpine to actually clear the regulator arm for the window operation. Its not a huge challenge so long as you have a hacksaw and a vice to hold the old spacer as you saw threw the bottom to allow room for the bigger magnet and screw the two spacers together. They mount perfect and clear everything just fine once done! Pros: Great bang for the buck. Cons: May require thicker spacers modification to fit front doors of some cars .
Scion Xb install...disappointed. Written By Matt, Illinois on Monday, January 19, 2015 Installed these in the back of my xb, was disappointed in the sound right off the bat. I have some infinity reference series up front and they sound fantastic. I thought maybe they needed to break in and break is exactly what they did less than 4 months later...one of them blew. I wasn't impressed from the beginning and I will be going with a different brand this time. Cons: poor sound quality, blown speaker in 4 months.
Mr. Written By Jon, Cali. on Wednesday, October 22, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Alpine excellence for years... I have been pushing hard and loud sound since '83 always with Alpine. Pros: Excellent sound, range, power handling, clarity and quality. Cons: None.
Great Speakers Written By Snowybear, San Diego, CA on Sunday, October 05, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I replaced the old stock speakers in my 98 dodge Dakota pickup truck with these. It made a phenomenal difference even with the stock deck. I also replace the deck with an Alpine CDE-153BT. The entire installation took only a day and the instructions from Crutchfield where flawless. I now have bass when I didn't even know what that was. The system was inexpensive and has given new life to an old truck. Pros: Great all around range Easy installation Terrific sound Cons: None
great for the money Written By Devin, Roscoe, IL on Monday, August 11, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Way better then my stock speakers in my 97 Chevy Pros: Great sound. Clear at loud volume Cons: Not much bass
Nice product Written By Central_NJ, Trenton, NJ on Wednesday, July 30, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Replaced the rear door factory speakers in my 2010 Lancer and are driven by an upgraded receiver/amplifier. The installation only required drilling four holes in the door sheet metal. The mid-range sound is much better than before. Pros: Nice product and a modest price. Cons: None
Smooth and bassy Written By Isaac T, Stevens Point, WI on Tuesday, July 15, 2014 This speaker makes me fall in love every time I hear it. The bass response is among the best that I've heard from a speaker (even on headunit power) and the tweeter is subdied, mellow, and smooth. Nowhere near tinny, at all. For keeping up with subs this wouldn't be a good choice, IMO, but if you don't want a sub and want as much bass as you can get from a budget speaker-only system, these are the ticker. On the power pack or an amp they perform even better! The tweeter is on a swivel, so you can aim it a little, which is nice, too. Wonderful speaker. They even come with Chrysler mounting brackets, which is a bonus. Pros: Great bass Mellow tweeter Good on headunit power, great on amp power. Cons: Not ideal for pairing up with subs if you're only running on headunit power if you want lots of treble response. No grills included
Amazing speakers Written By Kevin I, Orange, California on Wednesday, July 09, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers sound amazing!! Purchased from Crutchfield during a special sale that was buy one get one half off so I purchased two sets, one for the front and the other for the rear. Replaced the stock paper cone speakers in my car. With any Crutchfield purchase, they came with the master installation sheet made specifically for my car. Pros: Amazing sound. Good range of sound. Lucky enough for an amazing deal on the speakers. Cons: Lacking bass so a subwoofer may be needed if you want that extra "oomph" in your music. Installation master sheet could have been a bit clearer (or it may have just been my car that was difficult)
Great speaker Written By Brett, Jamestown, ND on Monday, July 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Absolutely amazing speakers they are pure and clean best ones I have owned Pros: Clear clean speakers highly reconvened
Alpine SPS-610 Written By BJ, Greenville AL on Friday, July 04, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great oem replacement speakers. Sound 100x better than the oem speakers that were in my 2013 sierra crew. Best bang for your buck for sure
Alpine SPS-610 Written By Anonymous, Palmer, AK on Wednesday, June 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Combined with an Alpine CDE-143BT, these speakers sound amazing. Worlds better than stock.
Alpine SPS-610 Written By Anonymous, Saint Paul, MN on Monday, June 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sound. If you listen to country, rock or alt. these are perfect for you. But if you're looking for bass these didn't exceed my expectation. Would buy again. Install took me a couple hours Pros: Great treble Clear Cons: Average bass
Better Sound Written By Anonymous, wausau, wi on Friday, June 13, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Wish I would have looked before installation to see my Truck already had the separates, Would have spend the few extra dollars to keep it that way. I did expect a bit better bottom end having gone with the 6 3/4. That said it is much better then the aged factory units I took out. Pros: Crutchfield's vehicle look up and installation kit made this a breeze!! Would not do it any other way. Cons: None - everything went as expected
work fine Written By triley, Odem,tx. on Friday, May 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The speakers work fine. The supplied adapters were not big enough, so used both adapters the free ones and the ones that came with the speakers. I felt better hooking the speakers with the alpine adapters they had bigger screws. The free ones had pretty little ones to connect the speakers. Pros: The speakers have clear sound from my Clarion head unit. I have them matched with SPR 6x9 and they are a good match. Cons: none yet
SPS-610 install and performance Written By Mike M, 06057 on Wednesday, April 23, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Ordered speakers, adapter plate and wiring adapter for easy install in rear doors of 2011 Jetta TDI. The depth of the speakers 2 1/4 work with the recess within the door. It might permit a deeper speaker but these fit fine. The only notable comment is that when the speaker is mounted flush to thrle inner metal panel of the door is that there is a small gap at the top that needs to be closed out(velcro works) As for the sound..great though even when the mids and highs are adjusted i would prefer a separarte tweeter SPS610c. Might cost a bit more.. I might do that for my front ones. But all in all the sound is great and the price is right and you limit your exposure to any install issues. Pros: Fit within car..fantastic Sound. Mid and bass great Cons: Wish there was just a little more highs. But if you want everything be prepared for not only the cost of the speaker..but its installation
SPS 610 Written By saabsuperaero1, Butler, PA on Monday, April 21, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Hey, what can I say, these are Alpines! Legendary Alpine clarity with rich deep lows, great mid range, and infinite highs. These SPS 610s are being used as rear speakers in a SAAB 9000 Aero Hatchback. Just to give props to the whole system, the stereo is simple, a Clarion NZ 500 receiver , two 4" Alpines in the front, a 150 watt Fosgate amp powering a 10" Pioneer sub in the hatch. Not overly complicated but sounds better than the factory Bose in my CTS, and tons better than the my Lexus' system. The speakers range is clear and feedback free all the way up to max. Pros: Great sound. Cons: Wish Alpine had a 6 X 9.
Alpine SPS-610 Written By d, Pinson, Alabama on Friday, April 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) A great sounding speaker in a smallish package Pros: Crisp and clear highs, solid bass Cons: no speaker grills included

Great Speaker Written By David B, San Diego CA on Sunday, February 23, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers are a great deal for the $$ they sound great running off my deck with a small sub providing the bass. easy to install. Pros: Great sound great price Cons: None
great speakers! Written By Rich V, San Diego, Ca on Monday, February 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Needed to replace my stock speakers. These Alpines went in perfectly, sound fantastic. A couple friends of mine complimented their great sound. Pros: Clear, powerful sound Cons: I don't have anything bad to say about them.

Alpine SPS-610 Written By GDOMERMIKE, Drexel Hill, pa on Saturday, January 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great upgrade on factory speakers(2010 Toyota Highlander)!
Alpine SPS-610 Written By Anonymous, Marion, AR on Tuesday, January 14, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great overall sound. I was expecting a little more on the lower end than factory speakers, but it's the opposite. Pros: Great all around sound Cons: Lacking quite a bit on the lower frequencies.
alpine sps-610 Written By Anonymous, sb ca on Monday, December 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sound and the lows seem to push well even in low db's Cons: GRILLS NOT INCLUDED!!!
Alpine SPS-610 Written By Anonymous, Glasgow, KY on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought these speakers a year or so ago. One the of the reasons I got them was because they were buy on get one half off. I should have just spent the money and got a set of pioneers. I agree with some of the other reviews about them being muddy. There is no crispness to them. There is also a lack of bass. My receiver sends just the low frequencies to the back two just to get any bass out of them. I thought there might be a break in time but one year later and they still disappoint.
These are the starting point of quality sound Written By Rex, Arkansas on Saturday, November 02, 2013 These speakers are very close to what you get in an "upgraded" factory stereo as far as the sound. Not as good as Bose, but genuinely good sound. It doesn't bother me at all to go from my 1200 watt, high end focals and subwoofer in my truck to my cheap little car with just two of these Alpines. The reason I like them so much is that they are not overly bright or harsh. Sure, you can't hear the lead singer blink his eyes like you can on the focals, but you can listen to them for 12 hours on the road to every kind of music without needing a break. After reading some of the reviews, it is obvious that people buying lower end speakers like these are not willing to install them properly for good sound. Make no mistake, these are good enough to require a solid mount and some dynamat (or peel and seal from home depot). This will eliminate the "muddiness" some people are getting and allow you to hear what a basic speaker should sound like. Also, when installed properly, you can get some good bass out of these. My bass is set on 3 out of 6 and these things do just fine, and I'm used to a 12" sub. Personally, I love good music in my car, and these represent the starting point for good music in my opinion. Don't get the wal-mart noise makers, spend the extra $20 and get a pair of these (or at least something as good). I am running these in the front doors of a 98 Toyota Carolla from the cheapest alpine head unit (17 Watts RMS). Full dynamat on both front doors. Pros: Cheap, not harsh or peaky, balanced, smooth, warm, easy to listen to, generally enjoyable to most everyone for any type of music, best $100 speaker I've heard Cons: Instruments tend to run together when played simultaneously, highs are so soft that snare drums sometimes sound like a baby sneezing, imaging is almost non-existent, all the common limitations of $100 speakers without all the harsh, unnatural, unbalanced traits you usually get
Alpines Sound GOOD! Written By Paul S., Swartz Creek,MI on Monday, October 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I replaced my factory speakers on my 2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 with these speakers. Much clearer sound and way better base. I would definitley recommend these speakers!
Just what I was looking for! Written By Ethan B., Silverdale, WA on Saturday, October 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Fit very well in my 2007.5 Silverado 2500HD LMM. Very clean sound with enough bass for my liking. Came with many extras making install easy. Thank you Crutchfield! Pros: Everything Cons: None
Reviews for the Alpine SPS-610C Written By Anonymous, Port Charlotte, Fl on Sunday, October 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) attracive and high quality Pros: high quality Cons: expensive
Well, not the Alpine I expected Written By DCRT08, Grand Rapids, MI on Thursday, October 03, 2013 First and foremost I'm happy to do business with Crutchfield because they're always very helpful. It costs money to have experts on staff to serve customers so I don't even mind paying a little more at Crutchfield, but usually their prices are competitive anyway. My setup is a Pioneer deck using the RCA outputs to an Alpine KTP-445A power pack, then to a pair of SPS-610s and a pair of SPS 406s. I've predominantly used Alpine products for 30 years but I have to say that I think Alpine isn't what it used to be. While these speakers aren't the priciest around, they're in the same price range as some that perform better. These speakers tend to sound muddy and they aren't terribly responsive. Even when taking into account the speaker size, the bass performance is pretty poor. Forget getting anything out of them for low frequencies. They also are not very efficient so the recommendation is don't try these unless you have a separate amp even if it is a small one. I first installed the deck and amp then made sure that worked before replacing the factory speakers in my truck. If you can believe it, the factory speakers performed better in many ways than the Alpines did. In all I'd say these speakers are "ok" but I'd look to a different brand that is at least more efficient before settling on these. I'd return them but they don't sound bad enough for me to go through the hassle of removing and replacing them. I think Alpine needs to step it up. Pros: Seem to be made well. Cons: Muddy sound, poor responsiveness, and not efficient.
Amazing Clean Clear Sound Written By Anonymous, Vancouver BC on Monday, September 16, 2013 i have a pair of alpine type S subs that ive had for almost a year now, had somewhat upgraded my door speakers with some old speakers i got from my bro, decided its time to get new door speakers, these sound amazing, completely bring the car sound quality from a 5 to a 10. Would recommend these HIGHLY to anyone wanting to boost your mids and highs Pros: amazing sound, no distortion Cons: havent had any
Excellent Speakers Written By Anonymous, Oakland, CA on Saturday, September 14, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Just excellent, no-nonsense speakers. The built-in crossover makes sure the tweeter is not overdriven by low frequencies and the woofer has the punch it needs. Sounds better than similarly priced component systems.
Great replacements Written By lozo, Lees Summit Mo on Wednesday, September 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great replacements for my factory Infinity speakers Pros: sounds great Cons: I haven't found any
Quality is what you get Written By Thomas, Bennettsville, Sc on Sunday, September 01, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Clear sharp sound... Have gotten nothing less than admirable comments from those that have been a passenger and/or listened to them... I am considering a set for my older car to pick its spirits up a lil... Pros: price fit my budget... while traveling just the sound I need to enjoy my football season Cons: I didn't know bout them before now
Not that great Written By Justin Case, Searcy AR on Thursday, August 22, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought 2 sets of these speakers to replace the factory (non Bose) speakers in my 2012 GMC Sierra extended cab truck. I just thought the factory speakers were bad. These sounded much worse. Would not recommend them at all! Very muddy with very little high end sound.
Great Speakers Written By DaveH, Georgia on Sunday, July 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Speakers sound great and they fit in my Silverado front doors perfectly with the suuplied cable adapters that Crutchfield supplied for free. I had to drill 4 small holes for each speaker. Beware of the instructions that were supplied to remove door panels because there are about 4 different panel variations in these pickups. Pros: Easy to install and they sound great. Cons: None
Sound great, if only they fit Written By joc1394, Hagerstown, MD on Monday, July 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These sounded great, but unfortunately they didn't fit... These fit the front doors of my 2007 Honda Civic EX Coupe, as expected from the Crutchfield "Fits My Car" tool, but NOT the rear deck location as indicated... They were too deep and hit the rear torsion bars for the trunk lid. I ended up returning these for a set of Pioneer TS-A1675R's which I found to be even better than these, especially when they actually fit. These are good, but the Pioneers seem to be a bit better sound-wise, especially in the low end. Pros: Crisp, clear, and bright sound. Cons: Doesn't fit rear of 2007 Honda Civic EX Coupe as expected from "Fits My Car" tool. You'll want a sub to go with these, there isn't much bass.
Alpine sps-610 Written By JG, Lucasville, Ohio on Monday, July 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Replaced my rear door speakers in my chevy 3500 crew cab sounds a lot better than factory although I still have factory deck . The factory deck don't seem to push very many watts to rear ch. , but I think if I add an amp I would get full potential out of these speakers. Pros: Easy install , higher quality than paper factory spkrs. Cons: None
Alpine SPS-610 Written By Tmiller, Muskegon,Mi on Friday, May 17, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I installed these in my sons jeep grand Cherokee. And let me tell ya he loves them. They seriously fit in to the rest of his head banging stereo equipment. Alpine rocks great. Pros: Sound great either high peach or serious bass. Cons: None
Awsome Written By Anonymous, Hamden, CT on Friday, May 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Love the sound
lpine SPS-610 Written By Jim in PA, Bucks County, PA on Thursday, May 02, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These take decent amounts of power and sound great. I have them mounted in the rear with XTC baffles behind them and they perform well at all volume levels. I LOVE them! Pros: Efficient and balanced Cons: none
fit great sound great Written By jesse, tipp city oh on Monday, February 25, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) great instuctions fit and sound great Pros: easy installation Cons: not as much bass output as the factory when they worked
Excellent Product Written By Drama, SA, TX on Wednesday, February 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers create a nice warm tone throughout the car without being overdramatic with the highs like Pioneers. I have these driven by my factory head unit and they sound great, but seem to lack bass. I'm probably going to change the head unit out and possibly add an Alpine Power Pack to increase the power to the speakers and get a better equalizer to dial in more bass. Had these in a previous car with a JVC head unit and they were excellent so hopefully the head unit solves the issue. Pros: Clean highs and mids Cons: Recommend use of an aftermarket head unit with these to get some extra bass out of them.
Sound Great Written By Russ, Bloomington, IL on Friday, November 09, 2012 I am setting up a all Alpine system in my 2002 Galant and I added these first and i couldnt believe it but they were so loud that I could barely hear my stock 6x9's anymore. Great addition to my CDA-9884 Pros: Great front speaker, loud and great bass. Cons: Didnt like having to drill new holes for the speakers.
Alpine SPS-610 Written By G Brown, Linthicum, MD on Sunday, July 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I Bought these to replace a pair of JBL 6.5's. I was please too see that the sound difference was noticeably fuller, the alpines were clearly a better sounding speaker, warmer with a better overall presence. Pros: Great sound with a smooth delevery. Cons: None at this time.
Good speaker Written By Anonymous, Springfield, MA on Monday, June 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Good replacement speaker. Installed in a 2008 Silverado. Crutchfield provided the speaker mounting bracket adaptor and wiring harness adaptor with purchase - no splicing and installed in both front doors under an hour (no power door locks or windows made the job a little easier). Much better sound over the junk stock speakers. Pros: great sound - worked as advertised
TOO awesome!!! Written By John Paul, Albuquerque, NM on Tuesday, April 24, 2012 I have a 2012 Chevy Cruze LT without the Pioneer upgrade. I had 4 of these speakers installed into the front and back doors to replace the factory speakers. I had a local audio store put them in for me. The sound is great for being connected to a factory radio. They sound so good that I can't wait to add an amp to them. I want to keep the factory radio, so my next step is to put in a sound processor ( A sound processor is needed to hook up an amp to a factory radio in most cases. ) and an alpine amp up to them. This is when I will really be able to show the quality of these speakers. Pros: They sound great even with just a factory radio at all levels of volume because they are 2 - 80 watts RMS power. Cons: None!
Kind of disappointed Written By Ryan, Appleton, WI on Tuesday, April 24, 2012 I was excited to get these installed with my new Alpine deck and rear Alpine speakers, and I saw that these were rated really well, but the sound quality is nowhere near what I expected. I previously had Rockford Fosgate speakers in the car I just sold, which sounded great, but these Alpine speakers sound exactly the same as my factory speakers I just replaced for these. I am hoping there's a way I can return these and get different one's installed without having to pay a bunch of money.

Alpine SPS-610 Written By Mike, Fl on Wednesday, January 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Speakers sound great Pros: Clean sound
Sound great for drive to and from work Written By JohnP, Pensacola, FL on Tuesday, January 17, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great upgrade to my sound system. Alpine is my speaker of choice hands down. Pros: Great speakers for the money! Cons: Nothing bad to say. Installation was a breeze. Great sound before I even had the door cover back on.
Love them! Written By Jared, mayfield ky on Sunday, December 04, 2011 I have a Infintit g35 and I have the alpine 6.5 component in the front and these in the rear. I know it says they will not fit in the rear but with a little work they will fit. Anyways, these are very good! I love them! I have my mids and highs powered by a jl4500 and the power works great! These are very sharp, and the highs sound amaizing!
misfit Written By Rick T, Yorktown, Va on Tuesday, September 27, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The mounting brackets sent for the 02 and up Nissan Frontier XE did not fit and the speakers are deeper than oe and rattle against window. Took the universal thicker mounting brackets and had to do a lot of altering to make them work but speaker still rattles against window on drivers side. Lost a lot of volumn with the Alpine speakers compared to stock. Not really happy with the speakers but I do like the Alpine cda105 unit.
Decent Written By Doug, US on Monday, August 15, 2011 I just installed these in my 97' 4runner Limited and after a few mods to fit the size (moved up from 5 1/4), this speakers bring my back seat alive. I have these ran on a Alpine MRX-F30 with a matching Alpine SPS-610C front set of components and with it only turned to about a quater power and set at 45 Hz it really fills the space and cuts out all outside sounds when I need it too. Only issue about these is the same with all the rest you MUST BREAK THESE IN!! If you try to force them to run at top power with an amp right away you will end up blowing them in no time. Let these warm up, they may take a little time but before long they will hit strong mids and clear highs better than most of the rival brands.
Great Speakers Written By Joe, Santa Rosa, CA on Thursday, July 14, 2011 Put these in the rear doors of a 2011 Kia Sorento, and man...soooo much clearer...Bass response is pretty good. Definately worth it.
Alpine SPS-610 Written By Sam R., VA on Monday, July 04, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Installed in the rear of my 11' Cruze Eco. Sound improved 100%. No amp installed. Not needed. Exactly what I wanted.
Pretty darn good Written By andy, indianapolis, IN on Monday, May 02, 2011 great speakers! i used these to replace the 6x9s in my grand am. They aren't amplified, but they are really loud and clear. they have a good amount of bass (nothing compared to a 6x9), but the mids and highs are awesome. overall I'm really impressed the only thing I would change is that I might run bass blockers on them. they don't come with speaker grills btw, but who needs them!

Guys 4 years ago a client asked me to build this boat. It was featured in SC magazine. To date he still has not picked the boat up and now wants to sell it. The kits are over 1100.00 and the OTW cylinder Bob made was about 1750 as I recall. Then there's my labor to build the boat. Plus I have to get the batteries back up to speed, check it over, pack it and get it shipped.
Or you can take it as is. The tail lights need to be replaced and it may need new bats but that's about it. It comes with radio and everything installed you just need to get her running should take about a day.
He is asking 5 grand for everything which is a steal in my book. Or best offer.

Large quantities of waste straw are produced as agricultural residue in Finland and elsewhere, and only a small proportion of this is currently used, Neste says. The project will study whether a logistically effective and efficient, large-scale straw harvesting chain could be created in Finland. The goal of the project is to investigate the practical...

And i3/i5/i7 CPUs? You say recent, but I don't think those are included in the code names mentioned. Well, that's getting somewhere at least..
Phoronix: LM_Sensors Finally Gets Better Intel CPU Support
While the Linux hardware compatibility of modern processors and motherboards have normally been spot-on, as talked about in our many reviews, one of the areas that still causes annoyances with modern hardware can be the hardware sensors support. For motherboards this commonly means being able to monitor sensors for the temperatures, fan speeds, voltages. For the CPUs, their integrated temperature sensor(s) also aren't commonly supported on just-released Intel and AMD products...
And i3/i5/i7 CPUs? You say recent, but I don't think those are included in the code names mentioned. Well, that's getting somewhere at least..
Doesn't that have you covered?Originally Posted by Phoronix
Sorry, obviously didn't know the code names as well as I thought!
I was surprised by my relatively up values of temp on my Core2Quad (50°C when it's suppposed to run @ 40°C or even below). I understand now that this was just some outdated code that could explain that.
This is a good new.
My C2D reported temps went up by 10 C after a kernel update ~2 years ago, I think they changed the scale or something.
Well I'm not so sure it's wise to use this method unless there's no analogue to the way AMD CPU's expose this info over the PCI bus.Instead the driver now checks a CPUID instruction (CPUID.06H.EAX[0]) to determine if thermal sensors are available.
Unless there's some other mitigating code, if you're running a multi socket board then this instruction will interrogate the CPU currently running the driver code and not necessarily the CPU you want the info from.
Intel owners : The scale wasn't changed. Tjunction was. In early Core2's it's 90degrees Celsius, whereas in E6xxx series and later it's 100degrees Celsius. I've never heard of faulty temp sensors en masse, but it may be true.

We just couldnt be happier with the price and the product. Delivery and Overstock get 5 stars as well. Thanks O!

Questions & Answers
Returned a too large sink and had trouble finding one for a 30 inch sink base. At 28" wide, this should work. Gave up 16 and selected 18 gauge ss b/c didn't want the drain off-set and liked a more traditional corner.
Fit to my need and style
Fits our budget and all the great reviews.
I already own one... Exact size that I want, and price point is good (though I believe I bought it cheaper last time...)

Hello samantha1998...that grid should have fit. We will have someone from our Customer Care Department contact you for further assistance. Thank you for shopping with us and we apologize for the invonvenience.
Are you SURE this can fit in a 30" cabinet (as the detailed write up says '30-33inch cabinet) ? If it is 30" wide I don't see how it can fit in a 30" cabinet, but I am hoping it is possible! Thanks!
Fits 30-33-Inch cabinet.
The quoted text in responses, below, cites the product as 16 gauge, but the text above, also describing the product, says 18 gauge. Which is it?
Sorry for the confusion. This sink is 18 gauge.

The shipping weight of this item is 13 pounds.
Can the sink be mounted in a 28.5" wide by 22.5" deep opening in a sink base cabinet?

Newly-acquired Dice-K to start for Mets vs. Tigers
Fister to face former Red Sox standout in Interleague Play
With Jenrry Mejia set to undergo season-ending elbow surgery, there was a vacant rotation spot the Mets had to fill. They could have slid up Matt Harvey and had him pitch on regular rest Friday against the Tigers.
But in the interest of providing extra rest for Harvey and Zack Wheeler, the Mets have made a pair of moves ahead of Friday night's series opener against Detroit at Citi Field. First, they planned to shift Carlos Torres from the bullpen back to the rotation to make his first start since July 28. But on Thursday, the club agreed on a deal with former Red Sox starter Daisuke Matsuzaka, and he will be thrown into action immediately as Friday's starting pitcher.
Matsuzaka was released by the Indians. The veteran right-hander, who had an 8.28 ERA in 11 starts for Boston last year, posted a 3.92 mark in 19 outings for Cleveland's Triple-A Columbus affiliate.
"It was more just a function of opportunity," Indians general manager Chris Antonetti said of Matsuzaka's release. "We didn't have an immediate Major League opportunity for Daisuke. He'd been throwing well in Triple-A and thought that he may have a better opportunity elsewhere. So he asked for his release, and we granted it."
Torres was 1-1 with a 6.43 ERA during a three-game stretch in the rotation. He gave up only two runs in 11 innings over his first two starts before the Nationals pounded him for eight runs in three innings in his third outing. But he's thrived as a reliever, going 1-1 with a 1.45 ERA in 31 innings.
"When he first came here, he pitched out of the bullpen and pitched great. But he got here because of what he had done in Triple-A as a starting pitcher," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "He had two very successful starts and then got beat up one game, which is going to happen to anybody. We made a couple pitching changes and put him back in the 'pen and thought he had some success."
Matsuzaka will face quite a challenge in the Tigers' lineup, and lining up opposite Detroit right-hander Doug Fister isn't exactly an easy assignment, either. Although he hasn't picked up a win since Aug. 2, Fister is 3-1 with a 2.45 ERA since the All-Star break.
Facing the Royals on Saturday, Fister allowed three runs on 10 hits while walking two and striking out six.
The series also sets up a reunion for Collins and Tigers manager Jim Leyland, who gave Collins his first big league coaching job with the Pirates in 1992. Collins wears No. 10 in honor of Leyland.
"With their manager, I'm partial because I like him so much, but I think he's done a terrific job," Leyland said. "I think they obviously have some pretty good arms with the Wheeler kid and of course the big man, Harvey. The kid [Dillon] Gee has pitched very well for them. I think they've done a very, very good job. I think they got a lot out of their situation so far. I've watched them the last couple days, and they all played very hard, they're all competitive, they all grind out their at-bats and I'm impressed with them."
The Mets are 25-22 since the start of July.
Tigers: Cabrera banged up, still playing
• Third baseman Miguel Cabrera has dealt with abdominal, hip and leg injuries this season, and he showed some obvious pain during Tuesday night's loss to the Twins. But that didn't keep him out of the lineup on Wednesday or Thursday, as he continues his march toward a second straight Triple Crown.
Cabrera came up as the potential tying run Tuesday against Twins closer Glen Perkins and grimaced while swinging through a first-pitch slider. He wasn't tended to by a trainer, but he was clearly in some sort of pain. Leyland admitted Cabrera "reacted with some pain," and he said, "I could tell when he came up the steps he was hurting a little bit."
• Catcher Brayan Pena expects to be ready for Friday's game after being out of the lineup for a second straight game on Thursday. Pena jammed the big toe on his right foot on Tuesday, but it had improved enough by Thursday that he was able to pinch-hit.
With the Tigers playing in a National League Park this weekend, Leyland could opt to start Victor Martinez at catcher instead of Pena or Bryan Holaday.
Mets: Collins has Leyland's respect
• Leyland remembers Collins coming to the Pirates organization as a Triple-A manager and joining Leyland's staff for Spring Training. At the time, he impressed Leyland with his intelligence, knowledge of the infield and ability to throw good batting practice.
Collins went on to manage the Astros from 1994-96 and the Angels from '97-'99, then going a long time before getting another chance with the Mets in 2011. Like Leyland, Collins never made it to the Majors as a player, something Leyland believes makes the job more difficult because, "A lot of players probably didn't know who the [heck] we were." But Leyland praised the job Collins has done with the rebuilding Mets.
"I really credit him, I'll be honest with you," Leyland said. "What he's doing, and I hate to ever say I couldn't do anything, but what he's doing, I couldn't manage in New York. I wouldn't be able to handle it, but he's handled it very well. I like New York, but I would not have been able to handle it. It's too big for me."
• John Buck got the start at catcher Wednesday afternoon against the Braves, the first time he's been in the lineup since Travis d'Arnaud was promoted. Collins said "there is no ratio" regarding how often Buck will start, just that he'll get more playing time than former backup catcher Anthony Recker.
Worth noting
• Mets rookie Josh Satin has reached base safely in each of the 29 games he's started this season, tied with Steve Henderson (1977) for the club's rookie record, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
• Tigers closer Joaquin Benoit has a 2-0 record, a 1.21 ERA, 14 saves and 31 strikeouts over his past 30 outings dating back to May 28.

November 12, 2014by Liz Cornish JonesI met Sarah Johnson a few years ago while living in Omaha, NE. I think we officially met at a fundraising event for a local nonprofit, but I had known of Sarah and her bike advocacy super powers long before that first meeting. After moving to Omaha in 2010, I stopped regularly bike commuting because the roads felt unsafe. There weren't a lot of good low volume connectors where I needed to go,...
November 10, 2014by Christy KwanLast month Advocacy Advance held an open call for applications from bicycling and walking advocacy organizations for innovative campaigns to address the most pressing issues in bicycling and walking advocacy investments. Today, we're excited to announce the three campaigns receiving our "Big Idea" Grants. If successful, these three campaigns will address the urgent need for biking and walking...
November 10, 2014by Caron WhitakerA major lesson learned from this year's election was that picking the right candidate matters. Republicans had had the chance to win a majority in the both 2010 and 2012 but they didn't always run the strongest candidates, or their campaigns made missteps along the way.
November 7, 2014by Liz MurphyVoters flocked to the polls on Tuesday and we saw many changes in State Houses and Congress. But what did November 4th mean for biking and walking? Advocacy Advance tracks and supports campaigns to win public funding for active transportation.

Despite gradual improvements, the U.S. is falling behind its peers in terms of traffic safety. Making matters worse, our nation's most vulnerable road users—pedestrians and cyclists—make up a growing share of traffic fatalities in recent years. In response, the U.S. DOT has made...
November 4, 2014by Caron WhitakerElection Day is here, and we've got the breakdown on what's at stake for bicycling at the ballot box. In the U.S. Senate, a change of party control, which is looking likely, could spell trouble for bicycling at the national level. Here's why: We could be looking at a May 2015 vote to cut funding for bike projects and removed eligibility for bike and pedestrian facilities from the transportation...
November 4, 2014by Liz Cornish JonesOne key question that has arisen from attendees as we enter our fourth year of a day centered on women's issues in bicycling is whether its appropriate or effective to have this remain a separate event. It is in that spirit that we have chosen to update the name. Rather than be the National Women's Bicycling Forum, we are now calling this day the National Forum on Women and Bicycling.
November 3, 2014by Adonia LugoLast Friday, the League hosted a live discussion about the term "invisible cyclist" with Dr. Stephen Zavestoski, of the University of San Francisco; Najah Shakir, of Boston Bikes; Do Lee, of the Biking Public Project; and Erick Huerta, of Multicultural Communities for Mobility.
October 29, 2014by Liz MurphyTheir claim that bicycling has become much more dangerous is based on only data from 2010 to 2012 and is extremely misleading. Using official data from the US Department of Transportation, the total number of bike trips more than tripled from 1,272 million in 1977 to 4,081 million in 2009. During the same period, the number of cyclist fatalities fell from 922 in 1977 to 628 in 2009, a decrease...
