Can anyone tell me how to fit a pr of 6x9" speakers in the back shelf of my WRX.

How do I get the seat out of the way etc, etc?

Thanks in advance

Richie.

I also have a detailed description of how to do it on my website -

What is the best model 6x9" Speaker to go for?

I dont want to spend a fortune and tend to favour the JBL GTO 963. Are these still decent??

Thanks again, Richie

I can't comment on those particular speakers, but I have the top-of-range JBL 6x9's and they are ACE http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif

Have to add my bit.

Lees 6x9s were v impressive, but if you do intend to fit a sub (and can upgrade your front spekears - see Lee) then remove rear speakers altogether and have dedicated sub for bass.

Do them in stages whatever, just remove them whenyou have a sub and front spekears.

I'm not sure I agree with Adam! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

That said I think all systems need a subwoofer, and not some go between!

Hmmm, now to get the subs in phase!! That's another problem! - Cheers Lee and Adam

I have to say I heard Lee's system today, and they do carry a lot of bass! If you're not interested in getting a sub, then they would fit the bill very well!

Cheers

I should just point out (for Richie's benefit)..mine accept upto 150W RMS, and although they have a very impressive efficiency you NEED an amp. I ran them off a 4x55W head unit for 10 seconds and nearly sent them back !! I use a 4x60W RMS Amp to drive these and the fronts.

Subs aren't practical for everyone, as I cart loads of gear round in my boot all day.
6x9's are an ideal compromise.

Lee 04 October 1999 05:33 PM

Yes I'd definitely agree with that.

For me boot space was an important consideration - I bought a fibreglass/mdf box from auto audio (subworx) in manchester..it snugly fits in the rear quarter..I still have a nice square space left.

The number I have for Auto Audio in Manchester is 0161 839 8927.

Lee, have you got contact details for them?
Also, where did you get the matching carpet from, did they supply that also?

..said that without moving my lips... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif Cheers Tony.

it only comes for the right hand side. Can be bought with/without sub
