I would install both of them and see which one gives the best sound for what you are looking for. I'm leaning more towards the pro 60 because I might be throwing in one of my 15" Juggernaut Subs in the trunk.....but if I don't install the 15.....I may spend the extra money on the spz60. What kind of amp are you gonna be running the speakers on?

I have a subwoofer in the trunk and if i want to turn it up to hear a lot of bass the speakers will distort while my subwoofer runs just fine. I want speakers that will keep up with the subwoofer.

OK, you've got to be joking!

If you already have both of them, then DEFINATELY install the SPZ 60's... I have the Bpston Acoustic Pro 60's installed, and these things kick ***!!!! But, you need a powerful amplifer if you're gonna run either of these....

YOU CAN NOT HOOK THESE DIRECTLY UP TO YOUR FACTORY DECK!!!

these things require between 50 - 150 watts RMS to run, your factory deck (even if you have Bose) is only doing between 10-15 watts RMS at best!

If you are gonna use the factory deck, you would be best served getting a JL audio cleensweep AND a nice high powered 4 channel amplifier... or you can get an aftermarket deck and an amplifier... but I swear if you hook these thing up to your factory deck I will hunt you down and

At 27" long, and only pushing 65 watts @ 2 ohms (even less at 3 ohms), ABSOLUTELY NOT. Boston Acoustics is known for their component speakers, and that's about it.. they are not known for their amplifiers.

It will be hard to find a good 5 channel amplifier just for your highs... (if you have the center channel speaker). I got a good 4 channel amp, and a seperate amp for the center channel, and then a seperate amp for the subwoofer. There are a number of good 4 channel amps out there
