Default IS ANYONE SELLING REPLACEMENT SPEAKERS FOR A CLASSIC?

as title says really,

im looking for a replacement set of speakers as there is no bass in the standard ones, and they don't go very loud without distorting. im not looking for subs and whatever else, i just want a nice sounding speaker system.


any help would be appreciated, if anyone is selling some let me know.

hello, mate, im not selling any, but ive replaced the fronts and rears in my my99 scoob. pretty simple if you get the correct sizes really. only coaxials needed and not component systems.

ive got alpine s-types in the rear and e-types in the front.

oh yeah. the rears are 6.5" and the fronts are 5.25". i went for small ones at the front so i could use the original plastic plates in there. just drilled couple fresh holes.

on the rear after i removed the wooden carpeted shelf which sits on the metal chassis frame bit, i slapped some sound proofing on there. no vibrations etc now. fronts didnt really need it.

the sound quality is absolutley incredible compared to the standard dusty units. i only have a cheap £80 jvc headunit and the difference is

price wise...

fronts...
Alpine 13cm Speakers - SXE-1325S from £16.99

rears...
Alpine SPS-17C2 SPS17C2 (17cm) COAXIAL 2-WAY SPEAKER !! on eBay, also, Speakers, In-Car Entertainment GPS, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 25-Jun-08 23:10:08 BST)

i would whole heartedly recommend alpine.

nee problems, if you get all the right stuff and fiddly tools, can do front and back in a day easily...

(for the record, by attempt at the rears took 13 hours as i was slightly retarded in my approach, but the fronts took 90 minutes between them, in the dark)

good luck fella, isnt too hard if your not sthupid like moi.
