Ghia Member 191 Member For: 22y 6d Gender: Male Location: Aus.Vic.Melb Posted 05/04/07 07:35 AM Share Posted 05/04/07 07:35 AM Hey guys,I have done some searching through all the various threads on here and all the audio manafacture sites but want to get the consolidated opinions of people here.What splits have you used in the front stage of your BA/BF?[/How easily did they fit ?(Both Woofer and Tweeter), Mounting depth etc..I'd prefer an easy replacement of the factory ones that's why I am looking at component 5x7 sets. I'm past the stage in my life where I have the time to make MDF spaces and Fibreglass A Pillar mounts etc. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told him they were for a BA and he said they have to space them 10mm out to mak them fit (due to mounting depth issues)Did the Type R's fit in the factory spots without any modification?

Guest EGOXRT Guests Posted 06/04/07 11:50 PM Share Posted 06/04/07 11:50 PM Polk Audio MMC570 you can not beat this speaker for th money you pay. They will fit straight in but you need to replace the original screws.. Here is a link for them.http://www.polkaudio.com/caraudio/products/mmc570/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking at getting these and 6" Type R coaxials for rear fill... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My speakers type r splits and type r coax's will be running off a MRP F240 4 channel amp... all this through an LC6.... whatta reckon the sound will be like? I had the setup in the old car minus the type r speakers... I use to have 6" type s coax and 6" DD Linear splits and it was awsome... but that was through a head unit... I hop I get the same results through the LC6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focal sound amazing and although not cheap the Focal Beryllium Utopia are awesome if you want the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
