Default FACTORY replacements for sail panel

OK guys, For those of you who know Image dynamics, I have a couple sets NEW IN BOX of midbass speakers for sale. They are model CX-64, 4 ohm, 91 db sensitivity speakers with HUGE magnets. 6.5" speakers roughly go for 229$ alone, or 400$ along with a set of crossovers and tweeters. Im selling JUST the midbass. 90$ SHIPPED

Here is a set of them on EBAY for 189$
http://cgi.ebay.com/6-1-2-CX-64-Imag...QQcmdZViewItem





I have a thread in the for sale section, If you have any question PM Me. Ask anyone on the forum about Image dynamics, they are a very quality brand. FIRst people to commit and pm me to ask for paypal in order to pay go first. Once I run out of the few sets I have, thats it.

Ok someone pmed me with questions on whether or not it will work for firebirds and transams. It will, but firebirds have 2 sets of speaker wires in the sail panels. look at the sticky up top to figure out which 2 wires to hook up. For camaros, there is simply just a + and a -.

No, they will not work! The problem is that the Camaro single voice coil subs are 2-ohm but the two channels of the amp in a Firebird connect to dual voice coil 4-ohm subs. This means that you are connecting the 4-ohm stable Firebird amplifier output to a 2-ohm Camaro speaker. The reduced impedance will increase current and heat in the amp causing it to burn out.

You can do the opposite - install Firebird subs in a Camaro - you can always go higher impedance without damage (just reduced power output) because the higher impedance reduces current rather than increasing it.

Ok, if anyone else has any questions let me know. Feel free to ask around about the quality of Image Dynamics or ID speakers.

Will these fit in the stock location or will they need spacers?

Here are some similar Image Dynamics with a picture of the back of them (not my listing):

Those are nice!! They do have a huge magnet though. Look like they would benefit greatly from aftermarket power.

they will fit. I have some kickers with similar magnets. They would benefit from more power, but with a sensitivity of 91 db at reference power, they still make a great replacement for sail panel speakers.

Listen, Im not trying to step on your tows here, but your ebay add there is only for 1 speaker and it is used. I think most people would agree that I am not making money off the few sets I have, Nor do I hope to become one of your competitors.

Sorry If I came off as trying to steal all your business from you, as you are a sponsor, I am just trying to unload the few sets I have left at a great price for ls1tech members.

HUH??!! Not at all...that's not why I posted that!! I was trying to help you sell em. Like I said..they are very nice!!! Read closely..."(not my listing)" right in that same post. Translated that means that is NOT my speaker for sale. I saw the picture that had the back of the speaker shown. I don't sell used equipment. Porksoda asked if they needed a spacer and I found a picture that showed the back of them. Frankly I couldn't tell if they did or not and couldn't find anything about the depth to verify...just a picture on ebay that someone had.
I am a sponsor but selling a few speakers is hardly stealing my business. Like I said...I was actually trying to help you. You got all that from reading that little post I made and completely missed the fact that I complimented what you were selling. My bad...
