Mark Levinson speaker replacement
#17
Folks the RF's are in! And I say, thank you thank you! Happy with the results. Here are some photos of my install. I did go to a pre-fab MDF board speaker mounts. I figure the plastic casing was not adequate and secondly I was just killing time. The speaker was 6 pounds! The 1/4" MDF board was $7 at Home Depot( 2 x 4 feet). With a jig saw, it was a breeze to get it cut out. Then it was just bolt in and done! Key was to make sure you have the right screw bolts, the original will be a tad short. Luckily I had some available.
PICS!
QED! Thanks guys for the RF recommendation.

I did the replacement foam surrounds from ebay, not as sexy as the Rockfords but made a huge difference for $20. I ordered the new surround for the sub yesterday, can't wait to install it sounds like straight doo doo.

The one's FJ, mandyfig, and I used was a 6.5" (PSS8-6) midrange, while I just found out that RF is making 8ohm, 8" full subs now (PSS8-8)! Would be really interesting to find out if these would fit in and/or could be modded for our doors!!! Any volunteers to lead this new project with the 8" 8ohm? I'm all tapped out of cash or I'd love to be the guinea pig.

Rockford 6" with 8ohm rocks in our sc430.
I followed the instruction from here and did them on both doors less than 2 hrs.
The plastic 6x9 adapter set was too narrow/small for this giant magnetic .... Dremel + sander+ sound deadened = rock solid mid range with no extortion.
A day after my upgrade, my wife asked me to do the same for her too. I knew that was coming.... I had ordered 2 sets of 6" Rockford. I am happy with this mod.
Thank you
