Front Speakers for S14
Front Speakers for S14
What do you guys recommend? I have tweeters in my A-pillars. My front speakers blew, so I'm wondering was is a good pair to get, I'm on a budget, so if you guys could help out, that'd be great. ^_^
Well, I think there's a few questions
- Do you have the factory amplified speakers?- (If so) Do you plan on adding an amp for the new speakers?- Do you have any woodworking skills?- Factory HU?
Okay, I'll just say check your local Best Buy/Circuit City/etc and look for "open box" 4x6 speakers (6.5's if you want/can make your own adapters). I think Pioneer has a very good entry level speaker.
I think the answers to my questions may mean you have alot of decisions to make.

I do have the factory amps. I'm still new to the whole audio stuff. I just want speakers right now that will sound good, then I'll move on to the bigger stuff at a later time. Budget would probably be around the $100-150 range I guess.

Re: (Rex)
Rex: When you have seperate tweeters like in his car and 94+ Q45s, do you also have tweeters with the speakers in the doors?
Meaning, if you have tweeters in the A-pillars, do/should you also have 2- or 3-way speakers in the doors?
Or, is it better to use a crossover network and only send the mid/low frequencies to the door speakers?

PMQ, I think it would depend on what you want to accomplish.
IMHO, I would do seperates or as close to them as possible. Meaning, I would either look for a mid driver or accept a 2-way with good low end and cross over the highs out of it.
One of the best systems I ever had consisted of 5 speakers, ranging from 10mm to 15" .

Re: (Rex)
How is the 94+ Q45 system setup? Are the the high frequencies crossed over to the tweeters? or are the high frequencies played by both the indoor speakers and the tweeters?
Good suggestion. I would especially look for a mid driver (not 2-way) if the high frequencies were going to be sent to the tweeters only.Rex wrote:Meaning, I would either look for a mid driver or accept a 2-way with good low end and cross over the highs out of it.
Re: (PoorManQ45)
Not sure, as I've never pulled the the door panel, but my understanding is the in door amp sends mid to door speaker and highs to the A-pillar tweeters.PoorManQ45 wrote:How is the 94+ Q45 system setup?
