Hi All,
I have a C70 '04 plate with the Premium Dynaudio 13 speaker ProLogic, SC901, 4x100 amp setup
I have unfortunately blown the passenger door woofer.
How easy is it to source a Dynaudio replacement?
If not, what size is it for a replacement?
Any suggestions for similar quality brands?
TIA
Shevek
I'd look for one that's being broken mate, coupe or convertible, GT spec, as the standard speakers are the nuts.
If you are after pure sound quality Focal are the mutts
Be careful though, you will want to do them all and they ain`t cheap
As you've had a C70 GT spec Rik, how do they compare to the dynaudios? are they that much better? I find the standard system set on pro logic is quality, and made me realise how bad the standard Cougar speakers were.Quote:

Focal are different league Steve, I have them hidden away in the Cossie (only four inch but they sound amazing) Dynaudio are good for oem but there is much better out there if you want to spendQuote:

I'll have a look. These are the ones from the bottom of the doors?Quote:

Would these be a good replacement?

Sorry it slipped off the radar - I'll try to remember to have a look.Quote:

Isn't the big 8inch ones at the rear of the car and not in the door
This is what I have found from various places:Quote:

4 inch mid and 8 inch bass in each door
Convertible:
1 inch tweeter and 6.5 inch mid bass in each side panel
9 inch sub in each rear seat (option I think)
Coupe:
pair of 1 inch tweeters and 8 inch bass in the parcel shelf
This is from various posts and wiring and parts diagrams across the 'net
I'm guessing this is the speaker you want:

I was thinking that, but worried it would stop the windows from dropping all the wayQuote:
