aye, i have the inifinity's 5000cs's...perfect fit (just) and when amped they sound not too bad (well you use the -3dB drop on the crossover). I have the 5" versions, but i believe the 6.5" versions fit perfectly, although dont quote me on that since im not too sure what the magnet size is, nor mounting depth of the speaker with adaptors.

Eitherway, get a decent amp to power the speakers and try and get something that is near or a tad over the rated RMS wattage of the comps :)

HOWEVER, wait until you get a decent HU in first mate....and there wouldnt be any point in replacing all of the speaker wire, especially not the stuff that runs from the HU to the door (crossover) since it would be a waste if your planning to get an amp soon. But yea, wait til you get a decent HU because it wont be doing any justice to the speakers.

cheers mate. Was thinking of disconnecting the speakers in the back and just having the comps in the front for the time being until i get the sub/amp installed.

Would you recommend replacing the front speaker wire (ie from the comps to the head unit)? Isn't this a little tricky to do?

yea you would get some kick

thats fine for the time being, just wanted to get some better speakers in there.

would i get bass from these comps?

would work i think just the sound wont be as good as it could be,

thanks for the input lads. I'll eventually get them amped and whatnot, but for the time being they'll just be running from the standard Corsa C head unit and normal speaker wire.

Would this be ok?

Speaker wire aint all that i spent 300 on 3m`s of wire for my home cinema it dont make shit of any difference unless you get an audiometer to test it

Alpine doing New Type S real soon look real cool Cheek there home page, or the new Type X stuff

Infinity 505cs Good quality system and within your budget. Dont forget you will need adaptors and some good speaker cable. R u hooking them up to an amp?

yeah i heard quite a bit about infinity. Any particular model?

infinity are mint, magnat are also quite good.

morning,

I realise that this query may have been posted many times before but I just wanted to get a few quick answers back about what would be the best comps to go for for around £120 maybe a bit more.

Thing is since selling my old motor I got rid of the Kenwood head unit i had in there, wasn't anything special, but better than the standard stuff you get. So now i have to start all over again, new comps, new head unit and a new sub. :(:( oh well it'll be fun :D

I wasn't planning on making my own custom door builds so wondered what would be the best components to go for in my situation.

Also, am I right in thinking that comps give out no bass? Bit of a crap question i know but i don't have a clue :lol:

Thanks for the help, any recommendations and good places to buy them are appreciated.

Cheers

Dave
