Found a place with some good prices on 2 of the Pioneer 6.5 speakers. The store is located in NY and they said shipping to CA would cost only $9. Here is there website:

1665 $55.98
1695 $77.93
After hearing all the rave reviews of the 1695s I decided to finally check'em out. I won a pair on ebay for $80 (including shipping).
After fiddling around with my amp settings I finally got hear how they really would sound through a powered amp. I can honestly say I'm very impressed with how it handles the bass. It's both smooth and punching. Pretty much what I was looking for. The only real gripe is the highs aren't as crisp as the Kenwoods I was previously using - but hopefully some new tweeters or an even EQ will solve that. Shin, any suggestions?
