'98 a4, looking to spend no more than 250 on fronts.

 

[mr monday niight]

they recommended 5 1/4 for the fronts?

 

[jretro23]

that's what they said when they took a look at them. they told me its listed as 5.25 for the size of the fronts, but weren't really 5.25 when theymeasured them. then they told me they are looking at 4.25's or maybe trying to see if they can work with a 5.25

can you recommend me a pair for both sizes?

this is the amp i'm working with for the speakers

[mr monday niight]

200 for that amp? smh

This does triple the power and is cheaper.

get some 6 1/2s and have the shop make some baffles for you.

[mrmeeh2]

lol everywhere i go, this lame is following me to hate

 

[mr monday niight]

No need to hate on that k mart amp and those old %+# jl subs..

You had a better setup with the solobaric..

 

[mrmeeh2]

Seriously, let loose off my nuts you're killing me. That kicker would pound as much as those 2 underpowered JL's because of its set up. Besides that,hop off that heated %*+ wagon you jumpin on.

 

[kobe82410]
