1) you didnt give a price so i could see if they are worth it
2) ive never heard of them, but they look kinda neat in a funky way. They got the power, they got the frequency range. Try them if they sound like a nice price. Whats the worth that could happen, they make better sound then your factory speakers .. BUT!!!!!
Theres a limited space in the stock locations, so if you put speakers with a big magnet in there, they wont fit .. so you would have to do some work.

CDT Audio makes great stuff. I started getting stuff from them when they were Cliff Designs and had great luck and have a few trophies to show for it. I think you'd be happy with the companies products.

1) 6x9 subs huh? That's a new one.
2) CDT is one of the top three speaker companies (SQ) rated by IASCA. The other two were OZ Audio and Focal. (I don't want to start a fight becouse I'm sure they only rated companies that sell in mass quantities, there are plenty of small companies that might sound better)
3) go to www.cdtaudio.com those speakers are the cheaper series, which still sound very good. Just not as good as their HD series. I plan on buying a set of their Classic series soon.
4) The CDT speaks you looked at sound as good as most $150 6x9s. That is about the average price for a set of their Cambria 6x9s.

CDT Audio makes outstanding speakers, especially for the price. Some of their lines are usually classed above speakers such as Infinity's top of the line. They're known to make very realistic "musical" speakers. I have their classic 6.5 seperates in kicks, and they sound fantastic, and take pretty much everything i throw at them (off about 75 RMS, rated to 90). I highly recommend them from personal experience.

CDT is good stuff. I would buy the stuff if I didn't have other stuff (mind you, I have close to $10,000 retail of stuff sitting in the closet.. Big time car audio geek).
