BTW, don't get caught up in wattage ratings - high-quality lower-rated speakers will be louder, and sound better at higher volumes than cheap speakers with gaudy numbers on the box. I've installed plenty of stereos - feel free to ask if you have any questions. | | |

They're made by some of the same companies that make the speakers, sort of creating their own customer base!
