So earlier today, I went to one of local flea markets/swap meets and picked me up a pair of 6.5" Boston Acoustics S60 component speakers for a reasonably nice price. Not many BA Authorized dealers around town, or so I've heard. But anyways, my front two speakers are blown and I'm wanting to replace'em. My only problem is that I don't know how to get started on it. I have the 6-speaker set-up in my car. If anyone can pull up a How-To article for me that can help me switch out the speakers, that would be friggin' awesome and I would greatly appreciate it.
BTW, while I'm switching out the speakers, would it be a good idea to put some Dynamat in the doors since I plan to add a small sub later on down the road? -Alex -------------------- -Alex {](O_o)[}

Done ^^ MDF will also reduce vibrations better. Use two layers of 1/2" MDF and stick some non-hardening clay in between them. And if all else fails, you can make kickpanels, which is ideally the best for sound imaging. |
