    ...you will lose any stereo imaging. I'd recommend looking up a recent thread where we created a 2-speaker insert for the front in-dash speaker. There are two different ones. One for planar speakers and one for small cone speakers. Then wire each of those in parallel with its corresponding side...

    Question for speaker wiring. I have a 1972 euro Frankfurt with 2 of these speaker wire plugs both of which are connected to the 2 rear speakers in the parcel self. Is there a splitter I can use on one of them to feed both rear speakers so the other one can connect to my center dash speaker?

    Air fuel gauge mounting options?

    My Innovative AFR gauge is the one on the right in the dash speaker location. It’s hooked to the header collector for cylinders 4,5,6. Plug comparison to ensure cylinders 1,2,3 are getting the same.

    Air fuel gauge mounting options?

    ...somewhere in the coupe. There are a couple options that I am considering. What I am not considering is the Alpina gauge mounting in the dash speaker hole. BMW had dashboard mounting of gauges for the 2002 Turbo that is interesting. I would want something that could be installed and...

    We have a stereo installer that visits both locations. Currently installing 5 systems. Everybody gets what they want. My own system is icu 130 focal in front, 690 ac focal under rear seats. My dash wood is speaker delete so nothing there and my doors are ashtray delete so no tweeters there...

    ...only photo I have at the moment but I think it shows that it looks pretty clean. Regarding phone placement, the other thread with the iPhone 3d printed stand would work but would obscure the gauges in the dash speaker. It would be pretty easy to modify that stand to sit one “well” over to the...

    ...can wire in antenna, etc. For the convenience, ease of use and installation, cost and "retro-looking-enough" quality it seemed to check all of the boxes. You also going to upgrade the dash speaker with some of the options we have been trying? Or were you having gauges up there - can't remember.

    Took a trip to visit Don today to drop off the Gen 2 dash speaker baffles. On my way home, I stopped off to see what was up with my car. They have made pretty good progress! Driver side front floor is in. Passenger side rocker is in. Gaping speaker holes in the package tray are gone. The front...

    Front speakers

    Aww c'mon man.. don't you want your car to look like this? :p I agree with you on most points. I am having those gaping holes welded up. I have speakers below the rear seats, and will do the in-dash thing (not sure if I will use my cone based design, or the planar one I did for @e9Leveque. I...

    ...will be substantially attenuated before it makes it around to combine with the front wave. This is especially true given the size of the dash speakers. Small speakers just can't push that much air. The maker of your planar speakers sells a small cup that fits on the back of the speaker. You...

    Front speakers

    I have been watching this discussion with interest. The only aftermarket speakers installed in my coupe are two small speakers to replace the perished mono speaker in the dash and a set of "undercover II" speakers on the floor of the back seat area (they can be tucked under the front seat as...

    Front speakers

    Ok, update based on Scott’s great CAD work. Speakers are mounted and fit very nicely. Sound quality is really quite good. I’m happy. Looks completely stock and is accessible if needed. With two speakers also doesn’t require any rewiring for mono. Although planar speakers have some downsides in...
