Ibiza speaker recommendations...

[chopper-lew]

If there's one thing that hacks me off about the daily running of my Ibiza, it's the sound quality from the factory standard speakers, especially after being spoilt from a full surround BOSE system before LOL.

Anyway, I have a Cupra TDi, and I believe the speakers are 6.5" pairs front and rear (please correct me if I'm wrong)

Any recommendations on something I could fit for less than £50 a pair that will slot straight into the standard fittings? Not too fussed about massive bass as I hope to fit a small-ish boot mounted sub in the near future, so looking for more clarity than anything else

Any recommendations?

hi, I've just changed mine for a set of JBL off ebay inc spacers for approx 40.00...much better sound and increased bass

Cheers.

I actually just took a punt and bought 2 x 6.5 inch JBL GTO series 3 ways to go in the rear speakers as they sound truly crap so anything would be an improvement. £29.99 from car audio direct.

The next step is a Active sub in the boot. Quite like the look of the FLI 12" 1200w. Can get them for less than £100.

And then finally, I plan to replace the factory front door speakers with a set of components for about £70.

Total audio makeover for less than £200

I highly recommend the Vibe Black Air comps for that budget.

I just got Alpine Headunit along with Alpine Type E Speakers front and rear (with front tweeters) cause the standard system was awful and I blew a speakers about a year ago, couldn't stand it anymore. Hopefully getting everything fitted in about 2 weeks. Was £50 for front speakers with tweeters and about £32 for the rear speakers. My mate works with ICE and said they perform as well as some speakers worth 3 times the price....hope he's right, looking forward to getting everything fitted

Had those previously, they're not too bad, but I wouldn't go as far as saying they're as good as stuff 3x the price!

Had Alpine Type R's with components in my old civic that's cost about £130 and a Pioneer headunit which all got stolen about 10 days after being fitted so I wouldn't be spending a fortune on ICE anymore cause that bought a tear to my eye lol. As long as the Type E's are better than standard I'll be more than happy
