I've just had the opportunity to hear out the Alpine MRP 550 V series amps versus the Pio 307F.

Slim size - very the Alpine is neat, to say the least.

Raghav, getting the 4 6X9s on a parcel tray in a Santro wouldn't be exactly 'spreading it out'. lol.

Besides, it would hardly make any difference in terms of SQ - I can picture an overcrowded setup.

IMHO, it would be better to leave a pair of 6X9s at home, buy a pair of components, install a 4-channel amplifier to drive the components and 6X9s.

Hi SAM,

This is my first post on the forum. I will be getting my Optra Magnum LT tomorrow morning and will straightaway go to the car acc. shop to change stock speakers but intend to leave the Alpine HU intact. After reading plenty of posts, Im narrowing down my selection to LBLs or Infinity Kappas 6" ers for the doors and a JBL amp (4 channel). The only problem is the Sub. According to a friend of mine, the Optra Magnum has something like a seat belt pipe running thru the parcel tray and so fitting a sub in the parcel tray wouldnt be possible. Is that true?

Putting in an enclosure would be a second option but since the car would always be picking up someone and would be storing luggage, this would become a hassle over time. The biggest problem is actually my Dad who will not approve of the enclosure in the trunk. I already went through hell putting one in my old WagonR.

1) Can you please advise me how I could install a woofer in the parcel tray?

2) What would be the pros and cons and which woofer would be preferable.

3)My choices were the Pioneer 307F (free air) and also some of these slim Alpine/Blaupunkt woofers.

4) Also, how are illusion audio speakers quality-wise?

5) Are they better or equal to the infinity and JBLs?

Please Help !!!

Thanks
SUNNY

Nope, the Ford Ikon cant take a 6.5" without cutting away the original grill which is a part of the pocket and some other stuff. I think the stock location is a 4".
