Default Good Speakers??

Hey guys I need some help on this one.

I used to know a lot about audio but then lost all of the brainspace to storing EFI Live info.

Anyways. Its not for a truck but for two of our tractors.

They both have nice Jensen HD head units with 45wx4.

So waht I need is a good 6" speaker that is shallow since space is tight.

Dont want them to be too expensive either as well need 8 of em.

And if we get bored enough we might mount a 10" sub since it has a hookup for it.

My opinion on audio is about 15 years old, but my little brother seems to think Memphis is decent for the price.

Im liking those infinitys since they are a shallow mount. Ill obvoisly need to cut bigger holes in the headline since right now theyre for 4" speakers.

I put some 4" pioneers in a year ago, but theyre just too small.

yea them 4 inchers are just to tinny, they cant give you the range for mids that a 6 or bigger can do.
