What is the difference between 6.5 and 6×9 speakers?
There are some differences between a 6×9 and a 6.5 that can either be good or bad. A 6×9 has more surface area which means more volume from a driver that is relatively the same size as a 6.5 in terms of installation ease.
Do 6X9 speakers need crossovers?
Every speaker system needs a crossover of some type. Component speaker sets come with separate outboard crossovers, many with tweeter level selectors. Every full-range, coaxial speaker — with its tweeter mounted in front of the woofer cone — already has a tiny crossover network built into it somewhere.
What is the purpose of 6X9 speakers?
The 6×9, and two different-sized tweeters are built to handle high-mid and ultra-high frequency sound. This option fills out the quality of your music even more, and gives you the great mid-range and strong bass capabilities of the 6×9 size, combined with great high-middle sounds and ultra-clear high frequency notes.
How thick should a speaker adapter be?
Mine lined up perfectly back in the doors. The adapters are a little over an 1/8” thick and plenty solid. Note: don’t over tighten the screws into the adapter. You are self tapping these and you do not want to risk stripping it out. There is no reason to crank down on these. These speaker adapters worked perfectly for my 6.5” speakers.
What are the dimensions of the adapters?

What is the thickness of the door speaker covers?
They’re 1/4″ thick, very lightweight, and appear to be cut out of ABS plastic or something similar. I can flex them slightly when I bend them lengthwise, probably because the sides are so narrow along that length. I still think they’ll provide a solid, stable surface to mount speakers to once they’re reinforced from behind by the car door.
