[QUOTE="BroncosNeverDie, post: 8655635, member: 675219"] Hello everyone! I need some general advice. I'm in the process of putting newly acquired speakers in my car. One of the things I'm confused about is the fact that my vehicle (1994 Bronco) has these weird metal "brackets" to mount the rear 6x9 speakers in. It's then covered by a mesh and all, but it's not enclosed at all. It's basically an open baffle design, which I think is stupid because you lose a lot of good audio quality. I much more prefer enclosed speakers than free baffle ones, as I feel you get more depth from it. Below's an example of speaker mounting.
