Here are both sold together for less than $6 on amazon. I haven't seen them sold individually but they must be out there.
You get what you pay for is all. The quality sound just won't be there. Google DUAL speaker reviews. I've had a dual deck, and I know not to waste my money now.

i put 2 duals in my truck and have had them in for 2 years and nothin wrong with them yet. I usually have the radio up to about max so they have held up real well, no great on base but the music i listen to dosnt use a lot of base so there good

i went to best buy cause they specialize in electronics for my stereo. i spent more money on the deck and had someone install it for me so it was done right, i would buy a cheap stereo cause i use it every day and i wanted it to be nice

Don't think that Best Buy is doing it "right", I have pulled apart some of their work in the past, and some audio shops work too. You'd be amazed who uses electrical tape and wire nuts... The "right way" to do this is with adapters, soldering, and shrink tubing.
Also, when I put new speakers in my old acclaim, the factory speakers had a plug, car side and speaker side. I cut the wires at the base of the speaker and soldered/shrink tubed the harness to the new speaker. So the new speaker was tied into the harness with the factory plug with NO mods to the car's wiring.

No, see thats still just the stereo harness. I believe gray covers more of the power source part while black is to the speakers and everything else...might be the other way around lol I'm not sure...but what I was talking about was the + and - wires that go to the speaker where the speakers are mounted...I have 2 separate, old, basically adapters that plug into the factory speaker wire harness right there with 1 black and 1 white wire coming out that you crimp terminals onto.
