Esk 165l

[wuelfman]

so i have a e90 2006

i am looking at the hertz ESK 165L for the first phase of my upgrades. i like the sound.

under the seats are 8 inch woofers with a shallow mounting

i want to put the ev-165l as a mid/bass in place of the 8 inch.

would these fit with modification to the housing and still have room for the seats.

im gonna add 2nd amp and subwoofer in the trunk later

any help would be great //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

If you like the sound of those speakers, go for it. A large part of the sound will be fabrication of their housing, whether it be your door or pods.

As far as fitting the ev-165l's, if the depth works and the diameter is the only difference, an adapter plate could be bought/made to accommodate them.

There are also some very shallow neo 8" subwoofers out there, if that interests you.

Feel free to PM me with any questions.

What are you trying to achieve with replacing the 8's under the seats?

 

[wuelfman]

just more of a midbass with a sub to be added later in the trunk

so i would have tweeter in the a piller , 4 inch in the door and the 6.5 under the seats to start with

then later add the sub in the trunk, change amps (maybe) active crossovers
