Agree. I think DB690/DB691 are above average speakers and they do sound very good. They are not the high end version but since you are using stock HU, how much difference does it make to go for the top end speakers?I have DB6501 on the front and DB690 on the rear plus a MOMO sub configuration and they are driven by a JBL amp and I am very happy with the results and sound quality.Just my $0.02.
