JVC CS-DR521
Crutchfield customer from Folsom, CA on 2/15/2021
1994 Mazda Miata
The JVC stereo we purchased at the same time as these speakers cured all of our problems. Our old speakers sounded much better so we returned these speakers. We may purchase new speakers from CRUTCHFIELD at a later date. Additionally, the CRUTCHFIELD return process was seamless. I just did an internet request for return and everything was handled flawlessly, I'm very pleased with the service I received from CRUTCHFIELD and will be a continuing repeat customer!

Clean, crisp sound. Not the best speakers in the world, but very good for the price. If these are your only speakers you'll want to add a sub to get some depth.

Crutchfield customer from West Columbia, SC on 9/30/2020
Hoped these would replace the original 4" rear speakers in my '96 Geo Tracker without major work. Unfortunately they were much to large and ended up using a pair of JVC CS-DR421's. Was able to fit these whiteout a great deal of modification to the vehicle. Sound is reasonably clean and clear for this size speaker.

Crutchfield customer from Valdese, NC on 8/9/2020
1996 Ford F Series
These speakers replaced the OEM speakers in a 1996 Ford F-150 regular cab. For the most part, the installation was easy, however, I could not use the decorative cover on the two speakers that go behind the seats as it made them too deep to fit behind the plastic trim of the truck. On the front speakers, the cover could stay on, but I was only able to use two of the four screws because they didn't line up correctly. I will say that I was doing this on a 90+ degree, humid southern day so its possible I missed something, but I did take my time and feel like I tried every way to use the cover on the back speakers and use all four screws on the front. Anyway, the speakers themselves are really pretty good. Now, I'm comparing them to 25 year-old OEM speakers, so there's a bias, but even at regular price, I'd have been very happy with them. I also replaced the OEM receiver with a JVC, so that could also have some bearing on the improved sound, but I'm definitely happy with them.

There was a promotion to receive these speakers free with a purchase of a jvc receiver. I installed them and feel they are not much better then my stock speakers. I should have just purchased better speakers.

Nice sounding door speakers
Crutchfield customer from Knoxville, MD on 6/1/2020
I bought these 1/2 off with the purchase of a JVC receiver. Nice clear solid sound. Pleasantly surprised. Returned the head unit, kept the speakers. You will want to cross these over at 120 Hertz. Drive them hard with any lower frequencies and they'll start to slap.

Decent entry level speaker, but needs a sub
Crutchfield customer from Bellevue, NE on 11/15/2019
2001 Ford F-150
These produce clean and crisp highs, but are really lacking below 70Hz; although that's to be expected for their size. I'm not currently running them in a setup with a sub, but they would balance nicely when coupled with one. I got these 50% off with a JVC deck, so for the money I paid, they are on point.
Pros: Clean highs
Cons: Lacking in the mid range Virtually no low end

Crutchfield customer from Saratoga Spgs, UT on 4/25/2019

Good entry-level speakers. They were easy to install and are a good bang for the buck. I only wish the bass coming through was a bit stronger. Too many highs and not enough lows, but what can you expect. They're pretty good.
Pros: Good price, quality build and easy to install.
Cons: Lack of bass. Too high of treble.
