Ok so 6.5" woofers wow, Does anyone even make a decent one of those?

You sure its 6.5 in the doors in an early 93? I was told a few times its probably a 5 1/4"

it is only 5-1/4, but you can make 6-1/2 fit. I prefer 6" (less cutting and factory grills fit over top) The speakers in the center are worthless because the enclosure is not any good. Dont spend too much on the center speakers as you still will not get good sound out of it.

you prefer 6"? I didnt even know they make a straight 6. Its always 6 1/2 or 5 1/4. ***** about the center enclosure, I was just going to get some 6W0 JL 6" subs and put those in there to see how they sound.

Boston makes a nice 6" componet system, Lauire (Redenf93) has these in his car, sounds great. I have Visconic 6" midbass's in mine (good speaker for the $, but needs at least a 100 Watt amp to drive them) I am not to sure about subs with out a good enclosure, they will just rattle alot.

You can seal the center enclosure to the inner compartment wall. That will help a lot - in fact, it's kind of interesting to play something while you do it and watch the plastic box expand. You'll see where the air leaks are pretty quick.

We carry Rockford, Alpine & JL which in my opinion are much better than the Infinity. I'd go with something better than the Infinity if it was my car. MB Quart also has a great line of speakers. I'd stick with any one of those instead of the Infinity line.
