I don't see what's wrong with the stock speaker location providing you spend some money and buy decent speakers.

Although i agree the grilles should be black, the positioning in the doors like that is better for stereo imaging, allows bigger speakers, and gives the speakers the whole doorspace as an enclosure, not the crappy standard podsAlbinojay wrote:Not a fan of that at all.bigredbmw wrote:this is my speaker pods .....................

I used to have a shitty old rover, and it came with some focal speakers int he back (£285!!!) and some components up front again focal (£595!)
so a car I paid £500 came with nearly a grandsworth of speakers lol They were kevlar or summa,t shit hot dont get me wrong but fuck spending that much on speakers.
I've well gone off ICE dunno if I'm getting old or just more of a petrolhead? I prefer engines

You are totally right on this one bud, iv seen so called 'sh1t' speakers out-perform expensive stuff just by being installed and set up properlybigredbmw wrote:prices of speakers mean nothing these days its how ya set them up thats wat matters ..................

However your mate Monty sounds like a tit lol, if they were all basically the same then why would there be so many variations eg paper, kevlar, polypropylene cones?? or dome tweeters and crappy cone type tweeters (in silk, plastic, titanium etc...)bigredbmw wrote:my m8 monty told me that , as he owns bassmechanix in newcastle ................all 6x9's and that are basically the same really all they are is different names on them .......... ave done many a build in cars

Oh yeah I agree that they can they need to be installed right, it's like anything though. And like anything else you do get what you pay for.
6x9's are shit anyway. Best off with some decent components.

It doesn't always boil down to money with cars, but he is saying that some cheap £10 speakers will just be as good as some £500 speakers.
I very much doubt that, like you said all the variation in materials etc.

The only common thing between the manufacturers is the size, the way that they work (eg fixed magnet, moving coil attatched to cone), and the fact that most are co-axial or tri-axial systemsbigredbmw wrote:HE MUSTNT BE THAT BAD IF PEOPLE ARE TRAVELLING FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY TO GET A SET UP DONE ......secondtimelucky wrote:However your mate Monty sounds like a tit lol, if they were all basically the same then why would there be so many variations eg paper, kevlar, polypropylene cones?? or dome tweeters and crappy cone type tweeters (in silk, plastic, titanium etc...)bigredbmw wrote:my m8 monty told me that , as he owns bassmechanix in newcastle ................all 6x9's and that are basically the same really all they are is different names on them .......... ave done many a build in cars

I can honestly say im surprised he gets any business if he's telling customers that 6x9s are all basically the same

No I wouldn't.
That isn't what we are talking about though lmfao.
I'm the tightest person ever with money as I am so skint, I mean check out my progress thread lol.
But say you did spend £500 on some speakers so say the whole system cost well over 1-2k? Then compare that to your £150 system. The expensive one will be better.
Oh wait, no it wont because your mates, dads uncles brothers barber sets them up better than anyone.
Hmmmmm

Lets not get out of hand here both of you lol. It one thing having a budget for a system but if you were going to spend 1-2k then installed that properly, it would hammer the life out of a 150 quid install, even if it was installed properlyAlbinojay wrote:No I wouldn't.
