Hi all, ICE section newbie here

A tight one at that

Having spent 18 months and shedloads of cash on performace enhancing bits for my scoob, I find it hard to justify spending any money on it that doesn't make it go/stop/corner better.

But I've had it with this poxy sound system. I don't want to change the head unit (its one of the double DIN import thingys) so I'd like to upgrade the front speakers.

Now obvoiusly I'm not looking for a miracle improvement with the budget in mind but if you ICE gurus had to (for some bizarre reason) be restricted to upgrading an OE stereo by way of £50 on some speakers which ones would you choose?

6" ones drop in, so I suppose there must be a pair of 6" coaxial speakers that come top in a <£50 group test?

Thanks for any advice / pointers to speaker reviews

Your ICE numptie

Justin, I think there's a test due in Total Car Audio soon - they've just done budget head units...

...but I would suggest you lose the POS that's in the dash at the moment. It's not really much good at making noise.
