rear speaker

[dbst11]

I have a 05 RT with the Boston sound system and was wondering what speaker would be a good replacement for the rear 6x9. Any suggestions?

I just bought a set of Infinity reference series 6x9`s for my front doors for my Mag, they sound sexy enuff to f*ck im so impressed with them.

Infinity Kappa.

Thanks fellas, wifey said she would get me them for Christmas. Lucky me. If she only knew how much I've spent already

I was under the impression that the front's were 6 1/2. Did you just shoehorn in the 6x9s?

If you have a sub in your car i'd go with the 6 1/2" component speakers though over the 6x9's, much better sound quality and with subs you aren't concerned about the bass from your mains, I have the 6 1/2" infinity kappa's front and rear, they sound great.

depends on which factory system you have, the standard has 6 3/4" (I think not 6 1/2") up front, with the Boston Acoustics there's 6x9's up front.

Any quality aftermarket speaker will be an upgrade over your stock speakers. Eclipse and JL both make a great sounding speaker.

Gotcha shiltz. Thanks for the info.

Kappa's all day.

I dont have BA system, just the simple 4 speaker setup in an sxt and the doors are 6x9 as are the rears.

[MagnumRT05]

Just get the 6x9 Kappa's off ebay. You could always amp them in the future, but they are one of the only ones that are an exact fit. I havent seen many that fit without modification besides Pioneer/Alpine and of course the Infinitys.

make sure they arent too deep! there's not a lot of room there for a deep speaker. i think it needs to be less than a 3" mounting depth

[MidnightSXT]

The infinity references I got I had to dremel a small amount of plastic off the speaker adapter to make em fit, otherwise they fit/sound nice

I realize that you will get a lot of suggestions regarding brands. If you want a really good sounding system at a very reasonable cost this is what I did.

Rears & doors are Pioneers 6 x 9 ($87 a pair at Best Buy). The dash speakers are 3.5" BA's. Also got those at BB, but I don't remember the price. I got the wiring adapters for the rear and doors from Crutchfield, so it was plug and play. The dash wires had to be cut.

As stated in a previous post, almost any aftermarket speaker is going to sound better than the stock ones.

And BTW, all of the above fit with no trimming.
