LAN speaker invasion into the dash impossible hole

[deQuincey]

the dash hole is not enough hole

modern speakers find difficult to sit in that place, it is a 4x6, but modern speakers tend to be 4,01 x 6,01 enough to be not fitting the hole

moreover the depth is not compatible with the grille

so

 

[deQuincey]

instead of modifying the grille,


why dont you make a sub-support and use a smaller 3,5"x3,5" speaker ?

use a wood support that is easy to work with

 

[deQuincey]

two as one is for dash and other for floor impedance couple

 

[deQuincey]

the inner support, all cuttings have been strategically defined in order to allow assembly and sound flow, but keeping robustness and structural integrity

 

[deQuincey]

drilling holes no space, so hand engine

 

[deQuincey]

special use of normal tools

 

[deQuincey]

try it, sounds fantastic

 

[deQuincey]

the units

3 Ohm

conecting them in series you get a total 6 Ohm impedance

the second one is laying in the floor

 

[deQuincey]

p.s. you can think of a better way, but this one is good,... IMHO

The Harmon box you photographed says "Nominal impedance: 3.0 ohms", so wouldn't connecting two speakers in series give 6 ohms? And if that's what you are doing, where did you mount the second speaker?

apologies, yes, 6 Ohm
second speaker seats on top of rear transmission tunnel
insde an appropriate blaupunkt box, it is cute non obtrusive and works well

I had the same problem with my 635. The speakers stuck out too far. Solution was a spacer behind the grill of matching material the
that the grill was made of

is that possible in the e9 ?

 

[Bert Poliakoff]

That I don't know

I think it would be tricky; if I understand tthe suggestion well, it would mean bringing the speaker grille further into the passenger compartment, and to (for example - sacrilege warning here use an old grille where you remove the slats, so to keep only the 4 edges.

Problem is that directly in front of the grille is one of the wooden pegs on the vinyl tray. The grille couldn't move more then a few mm's.

You right
