speakers bluffing need replacing

[mikesthedaddy1]

looking at upgrading my speakers as all of them bluff and rattle gt a 99 estate and dont wanna cut into the parcel shelf any 1 tell me the sizes of the front and rears that go up the rear strut to roof hopefully get them after my pp2000 with some decent sound deadening need speakers doin as im not aloud my sub in wifes orders lol cheers guys

[lozz]

The fronts are 6.5" iirc
or 16.5cm

ive just replaced the fronts in the 306 and thats what they were, im sure the 406 has the same size

Get some JBL s there Re branded Harman kardon, alot better than the standard pug crap lol,
ipicked a Discontinued set up from Halfords for 9 quid. they where having a clear-out,

[mikesthedaddy1]

Cheers mate just need the read pillar size think they might be 4.5 or 4 got some 5 and a quarter but too big might just relocate them elsewhere

[lozz]

Sorry idont know the sizes of the rear speakers,
hopefully someone else will know,

if you get some that are abit too small you can make some spacers up fairly easy to do,

The rear speakers are normaly ok'ish in the pugs, all mine seem to have /had crap front speakers Makes abig differnce swapping them out first,

iwas thinking of putting 6x9s in the tailgate but not sure if they will be too heavy , that wouid be the way to go ithink in the estates
for decent sound quality , and perhaps a small amp stashed out the way somewhere,

as for sound deadening some chaps on another forum,are using carpet underlay (cloud 9 stuff) seems to work well

Bluffing?

You can put the same size as the fronts in the tailgate (6 1/2"? ) as there are cut-outs for them in the metalwork, you just need to cut matching holes in the card. However I put some in my D8 and then found the struts aren't up to the extra weight (said finding was done with my head, quite a few times - ouch.)

no good adding diffent speakers in the tailgate then

the ones in the 306 are a pie shaped thing and are feather weight,

not sure on the 406s ones but on the 306 it wouid be a jigsaw job,

[mikesthedaddy1]

Fronts are done such an easy job gt some fli 210watts for 25quid just rears to go and managed to pursuade the wife so sub is in too

[lozz]

Fli speakers, are they the orange ones?.

[mikesthedaddy1]

No mate got them from halfords they're silver orange ones from halfords are edge speakers

[lozz]

Ah rite cheers,

iwas looking at the orange one's but wonderd if they where any good or not,
ididnt spy what Make they was,

I must admit I have the original speakers for my iMac G4 which have Harmon Kardon speakers, they are damn good so I am definitely looking into these JBL's when I get around to upgrading the speaker system

the Jbl /harman speakers are well recomended, ihavnt blown mine up yet, so theyve passed the distruction/dubstep test,
for the price of them theyre worth buying anyway,
