Did a search, the speakers listed were NLA, I know there's clearance issues with the big magnets of today's speakers.
Just wondering if anyone has done this lately and have a model number for a speaker that fits. I realize you have to trim to fit. The guy doesn't want pods, I asked, he wants something cheap that fits the stock housing. He just listens to news radio and baseball games. |

^ Man, how cool is that? Makes me miss working with big systems as a "sound guy" for live performances, but nothing so dramatic as that. Even then, though, there is simply nothing like a big system. Or even a smaller one for a live performance. At least, nothing that I have gotten to experience.
I guess my question is simpler: How much of a loss in sound quality for, say, a JL Audio 6.5-inch "bass" speaker in a 914 door between using the supplied JL grille and hiding the speaker behind perforated basketweave—mimicking the factory setup for the 928? I imagine there is going to be some loss of sound from the JL tweeters and mids in the factory speaker boxes due to the grilles and the factory "cloth," but interestingly the JL manual's "ideal" suggested layout of the 3-way system puts the mids and tweets in a generic interior right where the 914 has its speaker boxes with the 6.5s in the doors right where they have to go in a 914 door. |
