Older speakers?

Post by jaymo »

So I have been getting my system together for my truck have a set of older ( late 80's or real early ninety's ) 6.5 Rf mid-base drivers and 5.25" mids but no tweets. I used to have the 1" domes but there long gone. :sad017:

My question is , will newer stile speakers sound better? Is the technology that much better?

I think only your ears will tell you that. I would visit a car audio store or two and listen to what they've got. You will be able to get an idea on the sound quality as long as there aren't other loud things going on.
