best speakers to put in barracuda ???

I have run a lot of live sound at different venues over the years and get kind of spoiled with good sound... However, I do have a number of pairs of 6x9s.... the best bang for the buck I have found are Pyramid 6987's (http://www.millionbuy.com/pyr6987.html) the key though is to put them in a box and run an amp to them. The power handling for any speaker is cut down to about 25% of the rated specs if you run them "open air" or out of a box. I have a pair of these along with a pair of 10" subs in the rear panel in my 69 Barracuda fastback... I made a new rear panel that is actually a 4 compartment box... it ROCKS.... the small boxes for the subs keep the bass tight and not rumbly like a lot of cars... (I also added a 12 in the rear for rumble)..



bottom line, 6x9's in boxes, pushed by a good amp.... (even if they are in the package tray in a coupe, build boxes under them, sounds WAY BETTER and you get a lot more volume without damaging the speakers.
