    Default Need new rear door speakers

    One of my rear door Infinity 6032cf speakers is buzzing (edit: they were Infinity Kappa 62.9i). I first noticed it a day or two ago, then today it is much worse. So, who's got suggestions for new rear door speakers? I'm using stock power.

    The polk dxi were popular for quite a while. You could always do infinity again if you like their sound.

    I forget, do they need to be shallow to clear the window or something?

    I do not likey. They are too big to fit the splash shield basket, and nowhere near the mounting holes in the door without the basket. The application guide lied to me.

    The ones in your link are really good Polks ..especially for the price. I might upgrade mine with these now for the price.

    FYI I purchased these connectors. They fit perfect for our G8s. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    I had to cut the stock connectors off to install those Infinitys, so I'm not worried about that. I did figure out the max cutout size we have to work with (5") and was able to weed others out and verify the Polks. The Fosgates that all the application guides said would fit needed a 5.25" cutout.

    I got the Polk DXI651s installed today. The old Infinitys have a larger magnet and much fuller sound in the low end, similar higher range and limit before becoming garbled. I guess it's not a huge deal since I have a sub, but I don't feel like I upgraded.
