Does anyone know what size the speakers are in the front and back, as I am looking to change them but unsure what size to get.

6x9's in the back, cant remember the fronts sorry lol

Thanks dude

I think the fronts are 13cm diameter

Don't quote me on that - I may be wrong.

5.25" front and 6x9" rears. However the fronts have a built in spacer so you will need to
make or buy a spacer. If you do it is just as easy to fit a 6" front speaker as a 5.25"

Hi guys does anyone know if two or three way 6/9 fit in the rear?

theminiv · Dec 3rd, 2007, 06:35 PM

am I right in saying you can fit 2 or 3 way speakers, just watch the size of the magnet, bigger does not always mean better and I know it can restrict what you can fit in there.

Yes they will but you may need to enlarge the hole slightly, my 6x9 Genesis weren't a
straight fit. You'll need to be careful though that the rears don't over power the fronts.
And don't make the mistake of having 6.5 fronts, 6x9 rears and sub(s) unless you have
active crossovers.

Some people are like a Slinky ........ not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs
