Replace stock speakers in VZ

[cold_carve]

yeah should be straight forward just trace back the wires ya required in the loom, from vauge memory should be a light pink and a grey wire for the left hand front door and a dark green and light green wire for the right hand door, check ya polarity before ya start disconnecting and cut wires. for the crossovers ive mounted mine under the dash tapped into the original loom with headunit side of the cut wires feeding the crossover and the door side of the wires connected to the woofers output, run a new paired wire for each tweeter to the crossovers- works a treat. btw yeah if ya follow the link in my early post should explain in detail how to dismantle the vent facias
as for the rear doors just go ahead with a decent set of coaxials should be fine not to mention very quick and easy to do.
BTW as for any help in regards to parcel shelf or rear doors... ask Phreddy or any the gurus infact who got a sedan and know this area! Hard not knowin that area when i only gots a 2 door ute.

Ive got a vz stock stereo if i change the speakers to better ones but keep the blaupunkt deck will the quality of sound be the same compared to.if i changed the deck.

epic dig mate, only real way to get better speaker sound is to add an amp

 

[luke02]

Haha yeah. Thanks for the quick reply. So get new speakers and an amp or just the amp

Thats not true, better speakers will still sound better than stock, amplifier or not.

 

[aussie4life]

yes but if you dont have the power to run the new speakers thru their full range then its not much point getting them. amp fronts and rears and see the difference.

 

[sweefu]

What do you mean 'run speaker through their full range'? The frequency response of the speaker does not change with / without an amplifier. There is still a lot of point in replacing speakers without an amplifier. If they are good speakers they will sound better, even if they are just put in the stock locations with nothing else done.

 

[aussie4life]

if you dont have enough power to run the speakers, as most head units dont, you will experience clipping/distortion from the speakers.

 

[sweefu]

The headunit sending a clipped signal will not change with speakers, the headunit is still the same, so why would changing the speakers make it send a clipped signal? Providing both sets of speakers are 4ohm.

Can you buy mounts for 6.5" speakers to go in the doors?
