Pioneer TS-A6901C 6x9 Component Speakers vs Alpine S2-S65C Speaker and Amp Bundle

Buy the Alpine bundle if you want a complete upgrade in one box: 6.5-inch component fronts, 6x9 coaxials for the rear, and a 4-channel Class-D amp that matches them. Buy the Pioneer TS-A6901C if you already have an amp or head unit power and just need efficient 6x9 speakers that drop into factory openings. The Pioneer set is easier to drive at 92 dB sensitivity and handles more RMS per driver, but it is speakers only. The Alpine set is a system, with Hi-Res certification and a silk-dome tweeter, and owners rate the S-Series for clean output.

• Choose the Pioneer TS-A6901C if you have 6x9 factory locations and existing amplification, and want efficient speakers that play loud on modest power.
• Choose the Alpine bundle if you want front components, rear coaxials and a matching 4-channel amp in one purchase.
