WafOil:Lol, i meant falansa rather |
Jroy:What's your location |
Tabbaz:I still don't understand how he could be gullible enough to transact just because the id!ot mentioned a moniker....without asking for a quote to verify identity or checking to see the moniker's history as a currecncy seller, or even doing a search for the phone number to make sure it's associated with the Monkier. Are you a MOD in this section? I've been waiting for the falansa guy to clear the air , and delete my moniker from that mention. Having my moniker related to Fraud of any form or magnitude is a NO NO The Scammer obviously looked for someone who had a clean history to impersonate |
inze:Infact I was flabbergasted when I logged in, only to find that in my mentions. Lol. Which one be Payoneer fund. I Don't even know how the fvck that works. I'm actually curious to know if the guy who scammed him Identified himself as Bizzle2 or if this is a moniker mix-up. I'm not even a phone seller per se. I'm just a gadget person and like to trade off from time to time. |
falansa:Lol , Can you imagine. WTF?? Biko which Bizzle2 are you talking about ![]() Mr Man confirm the identity of who you had dealings with and remove my name from this trashy mention. I don't sell currency neither have I had any dealing with you. Let me just assume this was a typo |

Tools and Materials for the Installation of Speakers and Sound Deadening
|
grimadult:Thanks. I Really look forward to seeing that. I'll be needing to do some detailing soon too. |
Now unto the installation proper. I already knew the challenges I had to face, So I did some research and figured out the tools and parts i would need to do that. To solve the problem of contact with the glass, and mounting screw orientation, I got a custom Adapter (specifically for select Honda and ACURA models) made from quality ABS material. This adapter also doubled as a spacer, bringing the speakers a little outward thereby minimising the mounting depth to which the speakers are recessed into the door. To Solve the problem of Hole/cutout size. I came up with the idea of inward folding. I bought very strong Metal snips that allowed me to make small radial cuts along the circumfrence of the hole. These cuts allow the sheet to be folded inward and the speakers to go inside to whatever depth is necessary. This method beats the alternative of cutting all the way around the hole for a larger diameter. I also got a speaker adapter harness to avoid having to cut the stock Honda speaker harness.

The Bad Boys

Sorry for the break in transmission, been on some very tight schedules. Now back on track…. I started my upgrade with the initial intention of changing just the head unit. But over time, with use and research, I found out that changing the head unit alone wasn’t enough to provide the type of sound I wanted. Yes, the quality of sound was a great improvement over the stock setup but the resulting mix was like trying to stuff an elephant through a pigeon hole. The stock Honda speakers just couldn’t handle the kind of sound the head unit was delivering. The head unit had the potential to output clean, powerful and refined sound, but the stock speakers as well as the acoustic properties of the cabin (particularly the doors housing the speakers and door panels) greatly limited the results. This created the need for stages 3 and 4. Which brings us to my Favourite part!!... STAGE 3 Front Speaker Replacement. Why is this my favourite part? this is the stage that truly brings out the effect of work done in the two prior stages. It wasn’t until I installed the new speakers that I could really really Feel the full impact of changing the head unit and having the subwoofer. What Speaker am I talking about here? I’m talking about the Infinity KAPPA 62.11i by the world famous Harman Kardon. https://www.amazon.com/Infinity-Kappa-62-11I-6-5-Inch-Speakers/dp/B009GHQX5O https://www.crutchfield.com/S-CUYuSFRepDY/p_1086211I/Infinity-Kappa-62-11i.html IMO These are hands down the best "bang for your buck" car audio speakers on the Market, Period. After hours and hours of research, I pitched my tent with these. At first I thought the reviews might be a little too good to be true, until I had a taste couple of weeks ago. The sound just gets better as the drivers break-in There are more expensive, higher-end, 2-way and component speakers from inifinity, aswell as other top brands like Bang&Olufsen, JBL , Hertz etc but within the $100-$150 Category. These are the best $100 speakers your money can buy. Which was why even though they weren’t a direct fit for my Vehicle. I was bent on every necessary modification to make sure I rocked these bad boys. Which brings me to the installation process and the challenges…. Problem 1-These are a 6.5” speaker size, roughly same as my stock Honda speakers, but because of the humongous size of the magnets on the rear of the speakers, they wouldn’t fit into the cutout in the door. Problem 2- They also have a greater mounting depth , compared to the stock speakers. Which are a pretty shallow mount. Which means that if I eventually get them to go through the speaker hole, they would prevent the glass from winding all the way down Problem 3- Honda speakers have a three hole mount style while these are a four hole mount design |

EgunMogaji:Never seen that on a pioneer. Volume control knobs with widescreen are more common with the likes of Sony and Kenwood.

Awooof |
EgunMogaji:Thanks. Lol that's a big one. Even this 8" dey rattle my panels small I really look forward to seeing threads about detailing, d-i-y upgrades, and the likes . As is common with auto forums, The pioneer is excellent. Quite powerful |
