Corvetteman Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Does anyone know if I can buy REAR speakers that will fit into the existing rear speaker bracket on my LWBTT,I realise I may have to drill new holes in the bracket. Ideally, speakers to compliment my Alpine stereo and better than the existing ones. Help much appreciated :bow: Chaz Quote
Darkside TT Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Think the stock size is 7 x 4 JBL make them, a few others as well. with the JBL ones no need for re drilling holes hey have them in the right places. HTH Neil Quote

sixpenz Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I had some new rear speakers fitted earlier in the year when I had my new head unit fitted. I'll see if I've still got the box for them somewhere... hopefully I didn't chuck them out. The guy that did it for me said that the rears were already going through an amplifier, so I'm assuming that's a stock thing from Nissan, because they're definitely miles louder than the fronts and I have to fade everything forward to get a good balance.

jzack Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 FYI -- For the rears, folks often replace the stock box (top panel) with a piece of wood (MDF-fiber composite or similiar) that's been cut out to fit the new speaker size. It's a way to retain the stock box while allowing a larger speaker size fitment.... Quote
Porkpie Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 you'll probably also be able to get adapters from most audio shops or halfords if u want to used different size speakers although must amit they would sound better mounted in MDF Quote
Corvetteman Posted November 24, 2006 Author Posted November 24, 2006 Just want original sound goodenough..........for me!!!!! :nono: :nana2: Quote
Daves_Zed Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I've got a pair of Longmill's in my rears, don't know if they are made anymore. But the JBL's are a good quality speaker, around £48 a pair when I last looked. Quote
Corvetteman Posted November 24, 2006 Author Posted November 24, 2006 What wattage are the JBL'S? What wattage are the originals?? Chaz Quote
Daves_Zed Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Here you go, just found this.... http://www.newimagecarhifi.net/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=369 HTH Quote
scartlead117 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 The best way to go IMHO is to get rid of the rears and just invest in aquality set of fronts Quote
The Dark Warrior Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 Got the JBL's in mine. Think they are good enough for my ears. Mine are amped by a JBL amp under the seat. I also have 7 inch JBL's in my rear quarters see pic attached. Ivan Quote
scrawni Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 I also have a 7 inch in my rear OOww eerrr missus Quote
Tony 260Z Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 You can buy adaptors on ebay to fit bigger front and back speakers. Quote
markzx Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 I have a pair of 6X4 speakers from my car . They are 100watt x max 240watt. Can't remember the make at mo, but they cost over £160 ans weigh a ton. They fit direct into existing brackets and are very good quality. + They're for sale if your interested. Quote
Bassologist Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 I have the Lanzar 6x4's in stock .. rated at 60w RMS and 120 watt max £30.00 + P&P if youre interested Regards John Quote

OK, sorry it took so long, but I found the box. My rears are Alpine SXE-4625S 4x6" and 150W peak (20W RMS). The smart ones among you may realise why I'm an idiot for going looking for the box :rolleyes: Quote

friday Posted November 29, 2006 Posted November 29, 2006 The best way to go IMHO is to get rid of the rears and just invest in aquality set of fronts Totally agree. Why muddy the aural waters when you can get a pair of quality components for the front offset by a decent sub or subs in the boot (or wherever)? Just my opinion though. Quote
