best way to do it it take the door panel off and measure the speaker there, as for what speaker i would suggest the alpine type r with components, got good all round sound and decent value for money, from what i know i think they are 6" speakers but may be different in the v70 to the 850 :)

I fitted some alpine speakers that fitted staright in front doors but had to mod the rear doors as not a straight fit but not to much hassle
front were 1325 sxe and rear 1725 sxe

I know nothing I know (is that tautologically illogical?) but my R has the top of the range Premium Volvo system with the additional amp that sits behind the head unit and even with the factory speakers, sounds pretty good. I have tried a couple of other head units (Kenwood and JVC) and they were not up to the Volvo (Alpine I think) unit. I am often left wondering how to upgrade the system - because it sounds pretty good as it is.

Always on the lookout for a good audio plan though!
