Mach 460 speaker size?

Motorhead302 · 01-20-2003, 11:33 PM

i've looked several places on the net, and the only sizes that crutchfield or anyone else lists are the door and rear dash speakers.

i've got a '95 GT with mach 460, and i want to know what size speakers are in the pillar pods. i assume they are dome tweets, but would like to know what size, without having to tear apart the thing yet.

any help would be really appreciated.

I want to say they are 2" speakers. They might be 2.25 or 2.5. Not sure

thanks, tireburner. i figured you would have some idea, lol.

i'm gonna upgrade all the speakers after i get it back on the road, and get an alpine 7897 head unit. i can't wait.

Ok I looked it up. They are 2.5" speakers

Whoa, 7897 VERY nice unit, IMHO. I wish I had the dough to drop $600 bucks on a HU. I just recently sold my JVC Digifine SH-707 cause I needed money to fix the GT. I'm probably gonna get a Alpine when I get a new HU. Anything as long as I get rid of the stocker I had to put back in it

For speakers I say Kappa's or Alpine Type R's

Are you gonna run any subs?

yeah, i don't have the cash right now, and i need to get the GT back on the road, but maybe with my tax return.
oh, and, $430 unopened, undamaged on ebay. otherwise i wouldn't be getting it.
yeah, i'm gonna run some subs, but not for quite awhile. i'm not even positive about the HU right now. i was for sure, but now i HAVE to pay off my car this spring, and that's almost 2g, and it's going to eat up most of my funds. but when i get my school loan/grant money in the fall, i might do the subs. but definitely the speakers are coming sometime soon.
so those are your recommendations for quality/sound? i was also wondering about what kind would be good for the 5 1/4s and 6x8s? i'm not really up on current audio prods, i haven't been for about 5 years. i've just always loved Alpine, so that's the unit i'm going with. my first aftermarket head unit was alpine, and since then i've been a diehard fan.
