I just want to gauge interest in this and see if we can get 10 committed souls together to buy these at a discounted rate of $72 a pair + Postage and Handling if shipping is required.

I will compile a list of interested parties and we can go from there.

Alex, no rush mate, can hold this until you have some spare cash. I am sure others understand that buying a house pretty much rapes the wallet.

Happy to Help.

How long do we usually give people with these Group buys? if I organise it the downside will be it will be about two weeks before I can make something happen due to work and travelling commitments.

Damn straight.
Count me in, sick of the broken speaker fart noise. Funnily enough, it's the front passenger speaker in mine too.

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.


It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.

Hi,

Silly question I'm sure, but if I get two sets - will they fit in the back?

I am under the impression that rears are smaller than fronts, but not sure about fitment.

@Lukosh: I've run about 15 GB's now and the best method is to strike while the iron is hot, and also, to KEEP ALL RECORDS.

Cheers,
Nik

Rears will most likely be smaller than fronts, Nik.

Hi,

Would that mean the housing won't take them? Or that there won't be sufficient power supply? Or?

Cheers,

Should be no troubles powering them Nik. Just double-sided tape them to the outside of the door trim if they don't fit.

If they are infact smaller, they won't fit.

I initially bought two sets of 6" to go into the Foz. Installed the front two no problems (except the slight contact with the windows - need more spacers) but the rears are a weird size. I thought I measured 4" so replaced my second set of 6" with the required 4" but when I compared the stock rears to the newly acquired 4", the stocks were at least 1" bigger in diameter?

The components of the 6" wouldn't even fit in the hole provided in the rear door. The 4" seem physically too small but they still pack a punch compared to the stockies ;)

I replaced the front ones when the cones cracked and they were 6's.

Never took the rear trims off but I'm almost certain they they'd be either 4-5"

Yeah cool, I just imagine the front speakers in the outback would be the same size and mounting position as in the Beefwhore? did they also need to be shallow?

I only bought relatively cheap ones from JB so they weren't that deep and had no problems.

Obviously, the better the speaker, the deeper they go

Are these good quality? Surely they're going to sound better then my cheap cadence 3 ways I got from JB for $65?

I'm down.
PS: Anyone down for 6x9's too???

PSS: It's Nick.

yeah 6inch in my BH Legacy rears. You dont have the issues with depth with the ones in the back as the window goes down on an angle. Im making some spacers for the front ones. Funnily enough, my front passenger one went first too :)

Just curious, im kind of interested as I am looking for some speakers now but has anyone tried these as they are similar priced to some bigger brand named speakers?
