3 quick Questions about Audio System, Bose System in Celica ? :) Options

[Gunsnake]

Hello,

I know that these kind of topics have already be discussed, but I've checked, I haven't found the answer.

I own a 1995 Celica ST (AT200). My sound system is the 6speakers kit (2tweeters near mirrors, 2 front door speaker, 2 rear speakers).


1) Is the front speaker size 6,5" (I've found it on this forum)
2) What is the size of the rear speakers ?
3) What's the depth of these speakers ?


In fact, my project is to install a complete BOSE AudioSystem (coming from an Audi A4 or A6) in my Celica

Do you have already heared about how to do it ? Do you think it'll be possible ?

This is the kit I want to install. Please tell me if the depth of the speakers will match

I'm pretty sure the rear speakers are 6.5 Inches as well

One piece of advice about Bose.

Bose is big on enclosures for their speakers. I'm not positive that they have enclosures for their car speakers but I would look into it if I were you because this could have a huge impact on how these speakers will sound.

Remember, these were FACTORY speakers for that car, which means that Bose probably had a lot of input into the design of where the speakers went and how they would be mounted.

I'm not saying they won't sound good but I would just consider these factors before shelling out the money.

Nice advice man,

But you know, my OEM speekers sounds like craps and I think BOSE will not sound bad than now.

I can have the whole kit or less than 200$ so I think it won't be a very huge loss of money.

I know about the enclosure, I keep in mind that it won't sound like the car that it was design for.

Do you think it's a bad idea ??? I have looked at my speakers this evening and think it will fit. I've taken some huge pictures in order to do a "How to". Keep in touch

Thanks guys

Yeah, for $200 it might be a worthwhile gamble.

I can't comment on how they'd sound as I know nothing about Bose car audio.

I can say that, unless they are unusually deep, they should fit no problem in the Celi. I think the Celi has at least 4 inches of depth in the rear and even more in the front. The one caveat with the front location is that the bracket that the speaker mounts to gets kind of narrow after a few inches. This shouldn't be a problem for MOST 6.5 in speakers but you never know.

Please dont get them bose speakers, they are good speakers for high end manufactured cars but no were close to Q-series MbQuarts. So if u are really looking for sound quality go MBQ Q-series.

I look for a quality but not so Audiophile.

Just that the OEM speakers are so bad that I want a cheap kit all include with a good well known brand.

Bose doesn't sound so badly isn't it ?
