sound system help

Post by wretchedhunger »

i recently purchased a pair of Rockford Fosgate Punch P1692S 6x9 component speakers for my rear speakers and now i'm looking to upgrade my front speakers. Pontiac kinda screwed me with their 4x6 front speakers. I can't get front components because nothing will fit. What speakers should I get?

If I remember correctly, Metra makes adapter rings for the Cavalier/Sunfire so that 5-1/4 can be put into the 4 X 6 place.

I have been known to make mistakes and at the moment I am not near the shop so for now I will rely on my memory (infested with alzheimers), even though it fails me at times (hope I remember 20th Anniversary this year).
