Default Speaker question ASAP!

I found a great deal on a couple 6.5" mids and some tweets. I was about to buy them but then looking at the doors on the SC300, doesnt look like they will even come close to fitting......

What size are the speakers up front? Are the two on the sides of the rear deck 6.5" ??

Would you recomend putting speakers on the rear deck if im going to have a sub in the trunk with the stock sub removed for the sound to escape the trunk?

Yes I did. Said 4" in the front and rear. I went ahead and bought the speakers anyways though because they were such a good deal.

CDT-CL61's for $149.99. Usually $300, a batch of them was mis painted so they are on clearance at www.thezeb.com

Im sure I can fit the 6.5" in there with a little effort.

Hey, what's your thoughts on the Quality of those speakers? Are they known as a good brand of speakers? How would you compare them to Polk or Infinity?

I joined www.sounddomain.com and www.soundillusions.net and asked a bunch of questions before picking those speakers. Supposedly the absolute best speakers you can buy for the money.

I bought mine off of www.thezeb.com


That will go with an Eclipse 8443 head unit, Elemental Designs E12A sub, and one Avionnix 400.2 for the mid/high, and one 800.2 for the sub.

I placed my order yesterday for the CDT Audio CL-61a's from thezeb.com. Coudln't pass them up for that price. Thanks for the info.

Here's a little info on my project:

Just completed:
(1) JL Audio 10W0 sub in JL Audio sealed box
(1) Kicker 150.2 2 channel amp to power sub
(1) Sony XPlod 1505sx 5 channel amp to power speakers (The weak link)
Infinity Reference 652i 2 ways in rear
MTX Thunder 8000 8.5 5/14 Components in front (The weakest link)

To come:
CDT Audio CL-61a 6.5" components up front (replacing the MTX Thunders)
custom enclosure for JL Audio sub in rear behind right fender well
New 4 channel amp to replace the Sony XPlod (This amp came out of my boat)
