Center Speaker Replacement
Did some searching didn't really find anything.
Has anyone tried to replace the center speaker with an aftermarket one, I did enjoy the imaging that a center speaker provided before it blew. Just curious if its worth the time to try and get something in there or not.

1) This should really have been posted in the interior/exterior/audio section
2) Here's your answer: https://www.rx7club.com/interior-exterior-audio-26/center-speaker-can-still-bought-232250/ Took about 1 second's worth of searching

Thanks for the info, I still think I will consider constucting something to fit a slightly larger spear in that spot, just can't do much now cause I am nowhere near my car. I was wondering did you get the problem of poor sound in the front taken care of yet?

I have never heard what an FD sounds like w/ the center speaker (all the ones I've been in, it's either blown or disconnected). I've been playing w/ the idea of putting in a replacement speaker in the center spot and making slits on the sides of the gauge pod base to allow some sound to come through. I'm just not sure if it's going to be worth all the trouble tho...

I was looking at the new dvd/receivers and some have 5.1 output which includes a center speaker. Mine is connected to my Kenwood somehow, but it is very faint. I think he bypassed the amp and connected to one of the high level channels.

As for speaker size, they're 6" components all around (front & rear). Fronts, the tweeter is mounted higher up (as mentioned before), rears the tweeters are mounted in front of the speaker cone (an optional mounting method for Boston Acoustics' component speakers).

i would make a mount and put 2 swivel tweeters in its spot facing towards the back of the car while keeping them under the cover i bet that would sound awesome somethning i plan to do to mine in the future. That way u can have ur components in the doors plus the 2 tweeters in the center, 6 speakers in the front will sound great for your highs...just my thoughts
