Which speakers?
Can you please recommend what speakers you would replace the original scoob ones with in the front of a bugeye.
Type of music I listen to most is RnB and Dance so I like plenty of clear bass.
Looking to spend upto £150 for speakers and also a bit on top to get the doors sound proofed.
Is it best to soundproof all 4 doors or just the 2 front doors?

Alot of scoob owners tend to use infinity components 6.5 inch, i have some in mine and gotta say they do sound good. U will need some spacers which can be bought off ebay. You cant buy speakers that will go straight in.Theyre an odd size.

Look at this thread and read my post.
Have a bugeye myself, you just need some glue to prevent the screws vibrating loose.

Steven,
You'll not go far wrong with some Focal components. Having owned both I can say the Focal's will murder the infinity speakers in everyway.

Hi i think the model number is something like 6500cs ive had em a long time so not completely sure.
I agree with the above Focals ARE the daddy, however that also reflects in the price!!!!

If you can afford them get Focal K2's 16.5's. Amp them up properly and they will transform your audio. You will need adaptors though.
