850 Speaker Sizes

[theunderlord]

Simply put : post what you got brand/size/location(s) in the car.

Let's get rid of the guess work.

OEM speaker replacement stories only please. :)

Alrighty... here we go

Upfront - MbQuart 5.25" components with the tweets custom fit in OEM tweeter space

In Da Back - MbQuart 5.25" coaxial speakers custom fit into OEM rear deck 5x7's

I currently have nothing in the back doors as I believe with the correct projectioning (is that even a word? lol) off of the rear glass there is no need for them. Especially when tight on cash :(

I have tried swapping these speakers on both front and rear DOORS:

- 5.25 focal polyglass V2 (almost didn't make it in front, a little bit of push will help)

- 5.25 infinity reference

- 5.25 nakamichi SP-S522

Wow...Focal? I was looking into some Focal speakers until the price tag came about...ouch! Totally superior sound tho.

[steve s]

thought we had something similar..oh well..

dash, 3-1/2" will fit, required some trim to make flush

front door, 5-1/4" didn't fit at first, had to trim door panel

rear door, 6-1/2" fit, but not under stock grill.

tailgate pillar, tweet fit.

Focal Utopia 5.25 components ARE NOT A DROP IN replacement for the front speakers in an 850.

BUT IMage Dynamics CD-2 Comp Minihorns will fit under the dash and you can attach them, in part, to the trim panel under the steering wheel and glove box, respectively.

are these wagons? sedans?

[theunderlord]

what do you mean wagons or sedans?

[Momsoldt5]

In my 850 I've got

Front doors-5.25 MB quart reference series

Rear doors-Kenwood KFC XR501 dual mag 2 way

Rear deck - Deleted speakers because my W7 would have made them sound like sh!t.

[steve s]

with wagons, u have a tweet in the tailgate pillar

with sedans, u have a deck behind the rear seats

ohms may be different in the rear doors depending on 4 or 5 door and what options in terms of audio u got.

Car Type - Sedan

Front Doors - Infinity Reference 5002i (5.25")

Rear Doors - Empty

Rear Deck - Empty

Note:

Old Rear Deck Setup - Infinity Kappa 693.5i (6x9)

^This took a lot of work and modification to get to work... I didn't like the end product so I removed them.

Front doors and rear doors : 5.25 Alpine, fits perfectly.

Rear deck : 5 X 7 Alpine fits easily

All of them are coaxials.

To fit all the speakers, I only had to drill in new holes (for the screws).

[theunderlord]

bump for new people to read and to add to.
