Skoda Fabia Speaker

[Deandra Uleman]

iveallready done a search but didnt see this mentioned, what size speakers will fit in a skoda fabia classic 1.4mpi? 6.5 inch? and is there enough space for adding that soundproofing to improve sound? or is it a tight fit :confused:

plenty of room for sound deadening on the inner skin onf the door and the back of the silver door panel. Also an idea to put a layer of foam inbetween the plastic door panel and the door to help stop rattles.

thanks you for our information bnud3 ill have to look into the speakers ive been looking at and find the diemensions of them out, is there much space for sound deading? and do u reckon its worth bothering with different speaker cable or amping the front speakers?

Concerning the speaker depth, I spent lot of time searching the forums about the max depth that fits in the fabia. Someone even put a 7cm depth speaker in it. So I removed the door trim and took out the factory speaker. This is how it looks like:

Maybe you can put a >6cm speaker there as others did, but I think it'll be pushing the trim out, and the moving membrane might touch the trim also. You should check this yourself. I didn't find a "normal" speaker with back magnet that shallow, so I bought an Audio System 165 Radion flat (it's 42mm deep).

Sounddeadening: plenty of space on outer and inner skin. The silver plate has to be removed for the outer skin. I'm not familiar with cabling and amplifying. Since the silver plate was off anyway, I put an 2x1.5mm2 (16awg???) OFC speaker cable in it. Some time later I'm planning to put a small 2ch amp underseat, no sub... but I don't know if it's a good strategy or not... I'd be thankful for any comments...

i just want to check so there is no way they will fit? its a shame because hertz audio have been number 1 in many car magazines ive read. bnud3 how much sound deading did you actually need? because you buy it in sheets dont you? I think your plan will work very well using different speaker cable and using a amplifier should stop any kind of distortion and should give a good sound quality

This way my setup would consist of two 16.5cm front components, amplified by a 2ch amp underseat. I need the boot space, so I plan no subwoofer. The sound quality would probably be OK, with somewhat better lows due to the sounddeadening.

I wouldn't recommend you using coaxial speakers as two of the Hertzs are. The component one is much better, but this one may not fit. I recommend you taking off the doorcard and have a look for yourself.
