Neodymium magnets... they have much more strength than a typical stronium or other type of magnet... size does not matter with a neodymium magnet.

Honda used to use pioneer crap in their cars, something tells me this may still hold true with their new cars.

I have an 02 EX with the factory system (6-disc in-dash changer). You may think I'm nuts, but this thing sounds better all-around than the aftermarket system in my old car. I had a Ford Probe with Infinity Reference Series 2-way, directional 6.5"'s in front and 6x8"'s in the rear. Had a decent amp, Eclipse head unit and a single 10" sub. I mean, it sounded good and loud, but didn't have the kind of clarity and low-volume power that this factory system has. I'm impressed, although I'm sure these speakers are probably made of the cheapest materials going.

Are you serious? I don't know if there was any difference with the speakers between the 01 and the 02 but my factory speakers sound like crap. I can't wait to remove them and put something better.
