hey guys, need to replace my tower speakers but i'm unsure of what size of speaker i can use. right now i have lame *** 6.5s in there and they sound horrible, what size of speakers are you guys running in there?

 

Once I get my car back Im going to go with Pioneers all around. No amp or nothing, Im not into rape and **** but it should sound nice I hear.

 

i have 4" Eclipse up front, and go for some Cerwin-vega 6.5 in the back with a small sub....it will sound great

 

I think it depends on what year you have. In my 1990, I've got 4" speakers in the towers.. BUT.. it's held there by a metal mount that could be modified for a 6.5" speaker.

Soon, I'll be running 4 6.5" Infinity Ref. Speakers, 2 4" Infinity Refs, a KDC-V6017 CD head, and a 40W@x4 amp for the 6.5" speakers.

go with components..... they're worth it and they're worth amping... JBL,Infinity,Pioneer...in my case i have 4 inch under the dash speakers and 6 1/2 in the doors and 6 1/2 in the towers... but i dont use the dash speakers... just 4 6 1/2 mid ranges and 4 1 inch tweeters and it sounds wonderful..

 

That's good to hear ...

Don't put full range speakers in the rear. Just get a decent 6.5" mid-range driver. You only want your higher frequencies coming from the front stage, or it'll mess with your imaging.

And this topic should be in the Audio section, not the 2nd gen section.

 

So is the Pioneer setup going to sound nice and clear?I work at Best Buy and all the car audio guys tell me its the way to go.(But I know nothing about radio really, just not my thing)

 

if you want the best sound go to a eclips built in crossover, you wont be sorry

 

Huh? Try to form complete, legible sentences ...

If you want to learn audio stuff, go into the audio forum. Not here.

 

Maybe for what sounds best to you..... :P Brand really doesn't matter. Listen to all the speakers before you buy, and pick the speakers that sound best to you.

i think someone mentiond you could mount 8 inch subs in there? anyone done that?

**edit
..hmm maybe it was 6 inch subs....well still could you get 8inchers there?

 

I had 6.5 I650 kickers in my towers and custom door pods for I6.2 kicker componet speakers driven with a kenwood amp they sounded good.

 

I have 2 6.5's in the towers, 2-6*9's in the storage boxes and stocks in the front. Sounds like ****. I'm going to get some 10's or 12's

 

i m running 8" Rockford Punch subs in them right now. They suck so i will get JL's s soon.
