Hi,

Car speakers on OB...is this LO-FI heresy?

http://india.kenwood.com/products/car/speakers/kfc-hq718ex/spec.html

no idea what the T/S parameters are (except stated 3 Ohms) but Qts must be about 1?

I was just wondering about the sound quality and distortion et cetera.

Any ideas? They seem cheap enough.  cheers, Grant

I have the Kenwood dual cone 6x9s and they don't sound too bad.

I didn't see them on the India site but they have these:

The dual cones should be even cheaper than the 3 ways so they might be worth a try.

Hey Lin,

Thanks for the links. So car speakers might work OB then!     woohoo  :D
Yes its all about budget here, but I did find these:

again, a bit expensive and no T/S specs, so maybe your Kenwood 6by9's might just do the trick.

I have two 12" high Qts woofers, so I thought OB with car full-range might work.

Very much appreciated, Grant
