I just put in a cheap JVC headunit KD-R400 with a usb port, it also has an aux in on the front but I don't have an Ipod so I wanted the USB port for a memory stick.
I also put in a pair of pioneer 6x9 TS-A6963R in the rear deck. I have a bass tube that I was going to install but with these speakers I'm not going to bother. My fronts are dead so with just running the rear channels the bass response is way way better than I thought a 6x9 could do.
I've had it way louder than I'd ever listen normally and I can't hear any clipping from the amp or the cones bottoming or popping.
For $100 speakers and a $140 head unit I am quite impressed.
Becareful if you put your speakers in little boxes, as the cone suspension should be made for that, I'd imagine almost all car speakers are meant to be installed in an open environment, ie into a trunk or in a car door. Put in a little box they won't have much bass at all.
