    new enclosure maybe? newb question

    I don't know if I have the time or tools for a project like that. I'm sure there is a learning curve. what if you made it for me? how much money would make it worth it to you?

    new enclosure maybe? newb question

    Thanks for the input! I guess I could build my own but I would have no idea where to start. Are there threads or websites or kits that could tell me everything I need to know?

    new enclosure maybe? newb question

    I have a very beginner system and I'm a newb...please bear with me. Power Akoustic BAMF 800/2 amp (something like that) Kenwood HU, (can't remember which one) Two older Polk Audio 150w 10" subs Q-logic 2x10" Bandpass box (here's a pic of the box...

    does my HU have enough power?

    however, I must say, I do find it hard to believe that there are no 6x8" speakers at all that could be powered by 22w rms and also sound significantly better than the factory speakers in my Mazda. still open to suggestions in that area

    does my HU have enough power?

    well the concept 5.25's worked great with just my HU, but maybe 6x8's are a different story, or maybe they would have sounded even better with an amp, but I thought they sounded much better than the factory speakers that they replaced in my old car. I'll put those in the rear doors and see how...

    does my HU have enough power?

    anyone know of any good lower wattage 6x8's in the same price range as pioneer rev's?

    does my HU have enough power?

    the concept speakers are 100w peak power but I don't know what the rms power is. they ran fine with my old pioneer HU that was probably 22wx4 as well. so what would happen with the revs? they would just be really quiet? to avoid getting an amp, what are some more efficient 6x8's that are good...

    does my HU have enough power?

    I'm a newb. I just put a kenwood kdc mp205 (22x4 rms) in my mazda protege 5. I am about to replace the stock speakers in the rear doors with some Concept 5.25's that I already have. After that I want to replace the 6x8's in the front doors. I am thinking about getting some pioneer rev 6x8's...

    speaker adapters...I need some.

    I have two pretty decent aftermarket 5.25" speakers. I would love to replace the factory speakers in my 2002 mazda protege 5's rear doors. The stock speakers are 6", so is there a way to make my 5 1/4" speakers fit into the 6" opening? Also, the factory speakers have three screws (one every 120...

    6x8's or 5x7's? price and recommendations?

    aha...you are right: 2002-2003 Protege5 Front 5x7" @ 2.75" * Can use 6x8"s, see note belov. NOTE! 5x7"s and 6x8"s speakers are totaly interchangable as far as aftermarket speakers are concerned. So if you have a car with 5x7" speakers you can replace them with 6x8" speakers. So I guess i'll...
