I'm trying to decide whether I want to get the Pioneer REV TS-D170R or
the Infinity 62.5i speakers for my car. I have listened to both, at
different places, and they both sound excellent. Nobody around here
has both of them though; so listening to them side by side is out of
the question. They will be powered by an external amp at 65 watts RMS.
Pricing is about the same through internet retailers.

Any thoughts?

thanks
Jamie

For your application, I would go with the Pioneer. I was comparing the
specs, and the Pioneer's seem to be alot better.

The specs are meaningless.  Literally.

I realize the specs are meaningless. Has anyone had any experience
with both of these? Which would you choose?

OK, then, forget about the specs. How about deciding on which brands
are more reputable? Infinity's quality is somewhat better than
Pioneer's. But I hear a lot of people don't like Infinity speakers
(Kappa series mostly) because they are too "bright".

It's really a matter of preference. If I had to choose between the two,
I would go with the Pioneer. I have had Pioneer speakers before, and
they were excellent.
