    After many months of planning, testing, installing, and tweaking, my install is just about done (for now). Hopefully this can serve as a reference for anyone to add a similar amp/DSP/speakers etc. in the future. The DIY Mobile Audio forum was also a big help as I planned this out and worked on...

    Need some advice on what speakers to get to replace the old ones with. They’re a pair of zensonic ht40c. I have no idea what they are but i do know that they sound like ****. Completely ruining the lovely blaupunkts put in the rear by the previous owner. The head unit is an aftermarket sony...

    I have the WIS and can see what it says regarding size and ohms. The prestige is said to have: left/right dash = 2.5 inch / 2.5 ohms center dash = 2.5 inch / 5.9 ohms Why the difference, I honestly don't know. Has anyone replaced these before with aftermarket that was a direct fit (no...

    I'm not sure the proper name for it, so I'll just call it the "door speaker housing thingie." There's a picture attached to show what I'm talking about... I'm upgrading all of my car's speakers. For the doors, is there any compelling reason not to put my new 6.5" speakers into the housing...

    Simple question that may yield some not-so-simple answers: how hard is it to put a 6 3/4" speaker in the 9-3 door (given that the stock speakers are 6 1/2"). Is it as "simple" as tapping out screw holes for the 6 3/4", or does it require removing some of the door frame? Are there other...

    So I replaced the stock speakers a few weeks ago with some kicker front and rear. I only have a 4 speaker set, and I totally forgot the model number of speakers so I wont be able to check that. The question I have is how do I stop distortion at high sound levels in the rear speakers. Once I turn...
  12. 9-5 Workshop
    I use a cassette adapter to use my mp3 in my '00 9-5, but music never plays through the left half of the speakers. I pulled the volume nob out (Balance) and twisted it to the left all the way to send the sound to the left half of the car, but it just goes silent. Also, the back speakers have...

    Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum and to Saabs. I bought my 2001 9-3 SE 5-Door about a month ago, and I love it. One thing really bugged me though: the rear speakers had rotted to the point of just making an annoying buzzing noise when bass tones were played. I bought some JBL speakers off...

    So I recently purchased a 2002 9-3 Anniversary 5dr and I was wondering about the premium sound package? I pretty sure mine has grills in the front doors but no speakers? Is there a way to add these without changing my head unit or if I do to say another Saab head unit say a 9-5 AS2. Please...

    After looking through the endless amount of posts regarding the audio in our saabs I feel like I have a great idea but feel like it would be too easy. For starters I have a 1997 900se with the 6 speaker system and have began to upgrade the previously 100% stock speakers. I have ordered MTX 6.5...

    Hi I have ran into some trouble fitting some Pyle 6.5 mid bass drivers into the stock speaker baffle/baskets. Has anybody ran into this problem before? I would like to keep these baffles in use or use baffles and spacers to keep the same type of setup. If possible I would like to avoid cutting...
