Default 6.5 Subs

Does anyone know where to get aftermarket 6.5" dual voice coil Subs for our cars? <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

From what I can tell is that the dual voice coil is set-up on separate channels one to the front and one to the rear. This enables Full bass no matter where the fader is set.

they also run at 2ohms which no aftermarket speakers in that size will run safely at 2ohms...so you can forget replacing them unless ur going to rewire

I replaced my middle subs with infinity components because i blew on of the stockers. The low end of the compenent is powered by that channel and tapped off of the rear speaker to get a high end... It may not be the best way to do things, but hey, it sounds awesome. Now i get sounds from all around, i didnt really need the center subs anyway, since i have 2 10's in the rear...
