going to put some 5.25 speakers in instead of my 6.5's as i want to use some oem speaker grills

but not sure what to choose

the amp ive got produces 50w RMS

Ive only heard good things about hertz

I've got the Vibe speakers and sound very good. At 70w rms they will be a bit too powerful for the amp.

Go for the Hertz, not heard a bad thing about them. I think Cliffybabe has these installed in his cabby :) :cool:

that makes no sence :? :mad:

the amp produces 50w rms, the speakers can handle 70w rms

so the hertz have a better chance of being fried :mad:
