I was thinking something along the lines of encasing the speakers in 4.75" PVC pipe (if such a pipe/ comparable pipe exists; or some sort of thick/ long wood ring.) I wouldn't want to use a metal pipe because that would lead to sound distortion/modification. Where could I find these "spacer rings?"

Thanks audiobaun for the help, but I have a Toyota and that site doesn't have anything for me. Thanks for the idea though

I have all JL: 5.25" 6"x9" 12" sub 700/5 amp Already dropped $900 on it less than a month ago for all the equipment, not looking to replace any of the speakers, just looking to better encase them. But thanks for your advice.

The only speakers that'd fit would be 4", and my current 5.25" speakers are already under performing the 6"x9" that I have in the back. Do they sell 4.75" fiberglass piping?

I've put (2) 5.25" JL C2-525 speakers in the front doors of my '95 Corolla, however the stock speakers were 4" speakers. In order to compensate the increased mounting depth, I put 2" spacer blocks between the speakers and mounting brackets. My problem is that there's about 1.5" of exposed...

kthnxbai...But okay thanks

Thanks Captain Obvious lol. That doesn't help me in any way.

I have the following set-up: Head Unit: (1) Pioneer DEH-1300MP Front: (2) 5.25" JL C2-525x 2-ways (60W RMS) Rear: (2) 6"x9" JL 690tx 3-ways (70W RMS) Sub: (1) 12" JL CP112W0v2 ported/ enclosed (300W RMS) Amp: (1) JL XD700/5 (At 14.4V: 4 x 75W, 1 x 180W) I spent 20+ hours custom installing...

Yeah i'm looking more for SQ than tremendous volume; driving a '95 corolla I don't have an extremely large cabin either. Thanks for the advice guys!

Okay cool thanks, any other opinions?

I'm looking to install 5.25" C2-525 components in the front, 6"x9" C2-690tx in the back, and a CP112W0v2 single 12" ported sub in the trunk. Wiring these would be a piece of cake if they were to be wired with the XD700/5, but I fear with the sub being 300W and the XD's sub port only exibiting...

Lol well I'll ditch the Pyles if I find out they aren't satisfactory after getting the 6" x 9" but I think I'm gonna go with the first option because I had a feeling the 6 speakers would be an overload on the system. As for what CivicGTI said, idk how an oval speaker sounds "unnatural." As I...

Okay so I should look into getting an amp rather than messing with the speakers; got it. Any amp recommendations?

I got all 4 Pyle speakers for $40 total because I previously only had 3 speakers total, one of which was blown out. I just wanted 4 working speakers but am now looking to upgrade. CONSTRUCTIVE criticism only please.

I currently have a '95 Toyota Corolla equipped with four speakers; (2) 4" Pyle 180W 2-way speakers in the front doors and (2) 5.25" Pyle 200W 3-way speakers on the rear deck. I just finished putting these in along with a new head unit. I'm happy with the head unit, but feel as though my speakers...
