not these days. Headunits offer good value for money but amps and speakers leave a lot too be desired.

i just installed identical speakers in my vt with alpine head unit they sound good depends what sort of music and how loud you like it i suggest install them and see if your happy and then think about an amp

they are components and should have tweeters the cm60's have a crossover built in get a couple of cheap tweeters and female crimp terminals plug them in and run through the front doors and stick them to the spot where manual side mirrors adjusters would be if your car had then (it dosn't) and leave your stock tweeter. thats what i did looks neat and tidy and sound is very clear highs and great mids

I wouldn't worry about it. Lot of extra work for not much gain...

why not its pretty simple setup, if you didnt get tweeters you wont be getting the full range of sound out of the speakers due to the built in crossover.

May sound like a plan. Wish I was given the tweeters. Dumb question... Which pins are for the speaker and which are the outs for the tweeter?
Cheers
