speakers

hey guys, some one (cough woman cough) blew one of my front speakers, so im looking into some new ones, hopefully a bit better than wat we have stock. anyway first question.... the front speakers in the doors are 6x9 right??? correct me if im wrong and second has anyone tried these? http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Infin...oductDetail.do
worth it?is there something better? if they arent worth the price and i no most infinities are KILLER speakers, i have a 75 dollar off card so would that b worth it? anyway let me know wat you think. thanks

no the ones in the doors i believe they are 5.25's... not too sure... the ones in the back seat deck are 6x9's... then again the ones in the doors might be 6.5's... i suggest you take them out first before you buy anything... i'm pretty sure that mine are 5.25's for the front doors... and 6x9's in the back...

About infinity's... i had a bad experiance with that brand so i vowed never to get it... EVER... but its just preferance... you can find the cheapest speaker brand ever and might sound better then Kenwood and even Kicker... I personally like Alpine... i'm need to upgrade mine again... I blew out my two front doors too... just havn't got the cash to fix it... Good Luck on upgrading!!!

Front door speakers are 6.5 inch full range.

I replaced all of my stuff with Nakamichis

I've blown mine as well. I don't need super powerful so I'm just thinking of replacing them with the Pioneer 6.5s I had in my old car. Do we need any sort of mounting bracket or anything or will they just fit right in?

i put 6.5 components in the front infinitis... i had to modify the plastic baffle that holds the sub in a little because it was bigger than stock.. but nothing a dremel couldn't take care of..

Best speakers i've ever heard.

If I had 6.1 in the car, i'd dare say it sounds better than the RL's new system.

CRISP and clean. Oh and it CAN be loud but I prefer quality.

I have Kaption components up front, I have to make a new bracket to replace to factory baffle, but it wasn't a big deal, basically traced the baffle, and cut it our of 1/2" MDF. Speakers sound good, but I ned some dynomat in the car to help out in a few areas.
