Deville Speaker Sizes


96DeVille

Recommended Posts

Hello Again everyone. I am looking to upgrade my stock sound system in my 96 Deville, and I am not sure of the speaker sizes I should be buying (Doors mainly). I know the rears are 6x9s. Also, would this be a hard task? Any input is greatly appreciated, thanks.

Yes, 5 1/4 and 6 x 9 in the rear. However be careful with the impedance, I replaced my LF 5 1/4 yesterday and the sound level is poor, I am told that the OEM impedance is 10 ohms where as the replacement speakers are 4 ohms. Not only that, it appears that (and I am not sure yet) that the crossover may be in the radio, so you and I might be stuck with new speakers with a crossover that is designed for the old speakers... I am working on this over the next week.. and will post more

Early on sailors navigated by the stars at night and the North star became the symbol for finding ones way home. Once you know where the Northstar is you can point your ship in the right direction to get home. So the star became a symbol for finding ones way home or more symbolically even finding ones path in life.

NO the drivers are 4 ohms! Not 10 ohms as I was told...

By the way, that was a RUSHED judgement, the sound level is good, and the sound quality was good. I was rushing to a party and didnt have time to listen to it carefully.

Are the speaker sizes on all Cadillacs the same? I know that the 6x9 are pretty much a givin but is 5 1/4 the standard cadillac speaker size? Just curious! <_<

Can't help with that but if you have the manual it is in there I believe, Mike
