[QUOTE="frikkie, post: 81073, member: 845"] How long is a piece of string? Often, it largely depends on the OEM enclosure sizes if you want to stick to the car looking OEM. Once you know what will fit in there, cut-out size, depth, what size magnet will fit, you can start shopping around. Also, are you gonna power them from an amp or the head unit? Are you using active cross-overs or the passives that come with the split set? Will the fronts run full-range or mid-bass/tops only? All of these questions need to be answered prior to deciding on speakers, as the power-handling, frequency response and so on will need to be considered. Also, how high-end do you really want to go? The sky's the limit, but you may well get very good results, good enough for most, from very modestly-priced sets. This is now where a decent car-audio installer comes into the picture, that will be able to have a look at the car, the mounting locations and the rest of your kit, and then advise you from there. I'll help as much as I can, if you can start by answering the questions above, but best would be to go to a reputable installer. Which region are you in? [/QUOTE]
