Well the speakers are Infinity speakers but they are the "cheap" ones. It
is true that is you go to the Dodge dealership they will cost you an arm and
a leg they are in Infinity's eyes the cheap ones. Well they are great if
you don't want to spend alot of money on a system. I have spent about 3000
dollars on my system that is in an 84 Chrysler Laser, well enough about my
system lets go to yours. I wouldn't spend the money on a MTX Thunderform
elcolosure. I would find a reputable stereo shop around where you live and
get them to make you a custom box for your Pioneer subs. They would make
the box to the right size and it would last longer and look better. If you
want to upgrade your whole system e-mail me and I will be more than happy to
help you design a system
