The right passenger door speaker on my '02 F-150 ext cab is beginning to buzz and apparently give up the ghost. Not an audiophile, but need a suitable, reasonably priced replacement which is at least comparable to the stock 6"x 8" Ford speakers. Suggestions?

 

I would suggest the Infinity Reference line of speakers. They're decent coaxials for around $70-$80 for a pair. A little bit more expensive, and maybe only noticeably better when using an aftermarket amp, would be the Kicker CS line. Also, Alpine type s speakers aren't bad. Don't know what you're willing to spend, but you can get all of these speakers for less than $100 a pair.

 

Polk audio DB series, find then on ebay. Infinity tweeters are known for high percentage of blowing. Kickers are not to bad or rockford fosgate punch series.

 

If I can find them, I believe I still have a set of 4 factory 5x7s out of either my old 06 Harley or possibly the factory Sony 5x7s out of the 2012 Harley. Let me do some looking and I'll see what I can come up with. I won't be looking to get much for them at all either. 5x7s typically bolt up in the same hole as a 6x8.

 

Thanks much, onebadfiveoh. I've already replaced the speakers, so all set here!

 

10-4. Good to hear. What did you end up going with?
