90 watt rms 6.5 door spks

[fogelmclovin 10+ year member]

I have a 4 channel, 90 RMS per ch. amp. The front door mounting depth in my honda CRV is kinda shallow. I think it's around 2 1/8 at most. I'm havin' a hard time finding any spks. that are shallow enough to fit but can take the 90 RMS. My amp has a high pass crossover. If I filter the bass, can I push a little extra power through? If not, any sugg. on what spks. to look into. Trying to spend less than 100, and I'm probably not a good enough installer to handle components with a seperate tweeter. Thanks for your help.

Is it possible to put a 1/2" spacer behind the speaker?

Also, you don't need to be a good installer to cut a 2" diameter hole and stick a tweeter in it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

What kinda budget do you have for the speakers?

I'm not sure I have the room behind the spkr. cover.....but I'll check.

Its not the hole cutting I'm worried about, It the door panel removal. But I'll do some research to see what that entails. I looked on the Install DR. website, and there was no info about spkr replacement. I think that cuz you really only have to pop off the cover. I'm really not incompetent, just a little lazy.

- Yes.

Almani Components are 2.25" deep... and like kross said, you can make a spacer ring to get more depth out of 1/4" MDF, and you can install tweeters.

You can replace the speakers on a CRV without taking off the door panel?

Guess I should have asked, are the speakers in the door or somewhere else?

I'm only worried about the door panel removal to install tweets.

taking off the door panel is the least of your worries. i can do that with my eyes shut. just take out the screws and pull....
