6x9's or 6 1/2's - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I am replacing my factory BA speakers and am wondering if I should replace the 6x9's with 6x9's or go with a coaxial 6 1/2"??? I know 6x9's produce alot of base but since I have two 10" subs would I be better off with 6 1/2's for sound quality? I have an Alpine 75w-4ch amp for the speakers, looking at Focal or Hertz. Any opinions or info appreciated muchly!

It's rear fill. A 6.5" would be a bit less, all else being the same, but you'd need an adapter. :shrug:
Get the coax version of your front components, or the closest equivalent, and then turn 'em down.

Thanks, which ever way I go I need an adapter so I think I'll take your advice and go with the 6.5".
