I now have a head unit for the car and now need some speakers I don't wana chop holes in the door cards so its what where an how big will I need for the front and where to put them as for rear im thinkin a sheet of mdf some router time an some 6x9 sunk in and acoustic cloth over the top again which ones? I don't wana spend boat loads on it what r your thoughts cheers rich
there are mounts under the dash for 4" ones. can you get high output ones in 4"?
If rember right halfrauds have fli speakes on offer well at least here the did from €20-25 so should even be cheaper for you fellows
i did pick up ser of 4in h they fir in dash perfect were 25€ about 2weeks ago cant comment on how well they are over standard as id none in the first place
Pardon my ignorance but where under the dash do they go have pulled bit out under there but never seen anything that look like speaker holes ?
In a mk1 dash they go near the vents for the sidelight
decent speakers dont fit due to the size of the magnets & they will always sound terrible as the dash in either a mk1 or 2 just cant take much more than about 10watts before it tries to unscrew itself from the bulkhead.
Make some kick well builds.
I would do door builds or kick panels. Sound is 300% better.
I did like some one above, got FLI stuff from halfords, £120 worth of speakers for £60. Sounds bloody good on them too.
I put uprated 4" pioneer speakers in the standard mounting points..................don't bother it made little to no difference at all worse 30/50 odd quid I ever spent
The std dash positions dont seal the speaker in its baffle (ie the mounting surface) so you get the same sound quality as if you dangled the speaker from the rear view mirror.
