The Perfect Speaker For Our Doors

Postby Sublimed Aveo » Fri Jun 04, 2010 8:17 am

Is there is anybody looking to upgrade to some better sound for their Aveo, but are afraid of the magnets on 6.5's hitting the window mechanism even with a spacer? I was having the same issue with many speakers (including the Hertz set I bought) and finally found some kick ass speakers that require absolutely no extra space! The Kenwood Excelon XR-S17P series are probably the THINNEST 6.5's I have EVER seen! The magnet is inverted, so its on top of the speaker. The sound is amazing too. I highly recommend them to anybody

With a spacer(needed to convert from 5" to 6.5") I will keep working on a drop in 5"/5.25" solution that is a direct fit. I will keep you updated.

I'll have to check if the newer door panels have room for a spacer, 1"?

How would these sound powered by the stock head unit?

They sound great powered off of head unit power and even better when amplified!
