6x9s

[leighk18]

were is the best place to put 6x9s in the clio mk2 will they fit in the side pods in the back as dont want to have them on show any one ideas/pics of there cheers

 

[Gammer]

I've always thought that 6x9's in the parcel shelf is like a big invitation to your local thug or chav to come steal them. I still haven't installed any 6x9's because of this reason i am looking to instal them in the boot built into the panelling

My opinion if you can hide them elsewhere do so.

Others say that they make the "sound stage" of the car and to just put Componants in the front and rear.

 

[leighk18]

just change the fronts to vibe sk-60 serious so thats fine my old 6x9s were in a custom made stelf shelf but wanna try and my old parcel shelf in so looks stock why was thinking either in side pods our if can get them fit in the little speack vent behide the seat

 

[MT AUDIO]

why 6x9s,there the worst shape possible for speakers

 

[vavazoom]

6 by 9's are poo sticks! dnt bother!

 

[leighk18]

lol alrdy got them mate wish i not now and got them off ebay so cant just take them bk

 

[vavazoom]

sell um on again lol

 

[leighk18]

cant be assed the last 6x9s i had in were fine but the seal has now broke on them so i got new 1's

 

[pacey]

6 by 9's are poo sticks! dnt bother!

6 x 9 's are an inexpensive upgrade from the factory speakers for people who don't wont components up front and subs etc...

You've left me no alternative but to report you anti 6x9 thugs to the ICE police for discrimination 6x9's have feelings too

 

[vavazoom]

6x9's are only good for rear fill! thats if u got a decent pair of comp's up front!

 

[hydeyho]

sell um on again lol

lol, exactly what I was going to say, or chuck them in the bin and save anyone else from them!

 

[leighk18]

i have changed the fronts for some vibe sk-60 serious with tweeters and crossers the kevlar 1's so the 6x9s are for back sound

You don't need any 'back sound'

I'll say it before anyone else does, they ruin the soundstage, if you go to a concert ... blah blah blah it's been covered so many times!

 

[leighk18]

lol well i alrdy got um so there going in and they sound fine but as i said i asked for advice were they can go apart from paracl shelf

 

[MT AUDIO]

the bin has already been suggested

Throw them into your local halfrauds, they'll feel right-at-home

**************​

As said, you don't need anything in the rear apart from decent coaxils - having "in your face" speakers in the parcel shelf (stealth or showing) will disrupt your soundstage hence loosing overall sound quality.

Maybe sound quality is not an option though - I see vibe have been mentioned :rasp:

In your opinion they are shite, but his question was do they fit? Not what you think of them or what he should buy!!!!!!!

No people say they ruin the sound stage of the car and you should have amped componants UP FRONT.

[leighk18]

cheers mate very usefull unlike some

Sorry for the opinion (which most will agree with) but if you are keeping the 6x9s keep them in stealth
At least that way you keep the car looking standard and less attractive to the wrong audience, also you have your "rear fill" for the back passengers.

Make sure you have the front comps well amped so that your rear isn't going to sound better than the front end - what I was trying to explain how to avoid in my first post

Eh? :S

I "agree" that most will "agree" with the opinion of 6x9's. But my point was that he didn't ask what people thought of 6x9's. He asked if they would fit in a certain area. And all he got was, 6x9's s**t blah toss blah component this blah.

[crow]

just get a sub and amp
