I posted a while back about some problems I was having with my subs. Well, I took it in and turns out one of the subs was blown =[

Anyways, I'm going to be selling my good sub, the enclosure, and the amp.

Right now I just want to do away with the subs and get some new speakers.

Here's what I am looking at:

For the back
Eclipse 6" x 9" 4-Way Coaxial Speakers (SE8495)
• 75 watts RMS
• 220 watts peak
• 3/4” super tweeter
• Sensitivity: 93 dB
• Impedance: 4 ohms
• Hybrid mica cone
• Variable crossover

For the front
Eclipse 4" x 6" 2-way Coaxial Speakers (SE8465A)
• 30 watts RMS
• 90 watts peak
• Sensitivity: 87 dB
• Impedance: 4 ohms

Let me know what you guys think.

Bump.

Any opinions on these speakers or recommendations?

I'm also in the market for a CD Deck. I'm looking for something MP3 compatible that reads discs fast.

Thanks fellas.

Do a set of 6 1/2's in the front doors, and thank me later. As far as decks, Alpine, Kenwood, or JVC decks seem to do the trick.

6 1/2's wont fit though right?

You would have to get some adapters, here in Ontario they cost about thirty dollars. I would suggested making some adapters out of some 5/8 or 3/4 MDF. The wood sounds alot nicer and it is much easier to make the adapters fit behind the door panel (some people have to cut the speaker grill out. 6 1/2's are a good choice, they provide a much better front soundstage.

6 1/2's will fit with an adapter. make one out of wood, and like i said, thank me later

like said above either go with some nice infinity 4x6 components or 6 "1/2s
if you go with the front speakers you ahve chosen your backs will overpower your fronts

Eclipse makes some nice stuff. I really like them..and yes you can fit 6 1/2" in if you have adapters. That's what I have in my car. Otherwise, like said above, Infinity is a good brand for speakers also.



2010 Subaru Impreza WRX Limited
1999 Cavalier Z24 Supercharged
1999 Grand AM SE (Beater Car)
1997 GMC Sierra
2007 Honda CBR 600RR
2005 Honda TRX450R

Where can I buy the adapters?

My second choice in speakers was Infinity, maybe I'll go with those for the back too.

Thanks fellas.

Also, if I got Infinity's, which ones do you recommend?

Give me the top 4x6, 6x8, and 6.5'z

Go with a set of kappa components, heck even reference components will do you justice.

How does this setup look:

Orrrr for $50 more instead of the 4x6's I could go with these and get the adapter:

Also sorry for triple post, but I can't find any adapters that do 4x6 to 6 1/2. Where can I find them?

Best Buy/Circuit City carries them. Or make your own.

How much do they cost on average? I couldnt find any online. Also will this deck do the work?

to make the adaptor, maybe like $5 wood...lol...but you need a sheet for like $15 or something if you can find those small sheets that some stores carry

you want to bump, then they will bump and hit real hard and a lot good.

LOL

Do you have a guide for making the adapter? I don't know how, so I just figured it would be easier to buy one.

i just traced my old 4x6 on the wood then cut it out, then traced the new speaker hole over that and drill new holes.

Any specific kind of wood you guys recommend?
