Haha, mine were in such bad shape when I pulled them out! The paper cones had all but fallen away from the outer rim

Friggin rubber part disintergrated.

I replaced with 6" splits I think, needed an adapter but... basically hacked up the plastic basket and glued down a ring of mdf to screw into.

Thanks for the response Bennoz and Scarecrow..

Been looking at 6" but should go the Focal or Hertz 6.5"s i think...

I replaced the originals with 6's. Just need to be a little creative with mounting.

6.5's slot straight in, 6's you will need to get creative.... all I did was butcher the existing screws into the plastic housing (making my own holes) whn fitting 6's.

I have 6.5" Focals in mine, mounted on an MDF bracket I made up. Can't remember why at the time but I think I needed to.

Could that be because they were a 3 scrw configuration??

I am going the Boston Acoustic SL60's which are 6.5"

No drama's really with the install...

yeah i use to have the bostons 6.5 " that i then sold to scarecrow and i sold it to him with all the mountings. Best to fit the 6.5" as they will be nice and tight and will giv a great sound. but i do have to mention to u that u gotta make simple mounts for it with MDF.

6.5" fit fine...but as suggested you might need some moutings...mind already had some...sounds great IMO

cool, cheers for the info guys....will probably rely on double layer of Dynomat for the mounting...

Oooh .. Nice. I've always been a fan of Focals. I've got a pair of 6.5" Pioneer Bullets. It's done the job .. so am considerably happy with them.
