Speaker Opinion----PLEASE READ!!!

[Tucker 10+ year member]

I have a Jeep Cherokee and with really thin doors and I'm concerned that there are a lot of speakers on the market that are to big to fit in them. And I don't really want to buy kick panels. Tell me what you think about these speakers that I think would fit.

Also, please let me know if you have any other suggestions as far as great quality but fairly slender component speakers go. (5 1/4")

Kenwood Excelon KFC-XR51P

Diamond Audion S500s

Thanks!!!

Thanks,

Yeah, the Diamonds are only 1 7/8" deep. . . I don't think they get much smaller than that. Do you know of any other comp speakers offhand that have a shallow mounting depth and are of the same caliber as the diamonds?

Thanks
