Oh, a little update.  the speaker is intermittant, most of the time it doesnt work, occasionally it does but it crackles.

So I guess i've blown the coil... oopsy  :grin: The wires are all intact the speaker end, not taken the head unit out to check the connections there but i'm 99% sure its the speaker.

Stock speakers and a lot of volume, not a good combination.

I'm ordering up some pioneer 100w 10cm speakers today, £20. they'll do for what I need.

Later on i'll get some in the doors as all 4 have blanking grills/pods, ready for some speakers.

the door speakers are really easy to get in, i have just done mine, make sure you get some crossover boxes so you can set the sound up properly, they are real easy, you will have an input, then an output for treble, mid and bass or just tweeter and woofer. so worth it for the few quid they cost and you get them with most component sets :)

thanks, i've had components before when I was in my mid 20s and had a decent car to put them in (205GTi) but for now, I settled with some kenwood 110w 10". £20, bargain  :smiley:

maybe later if I get the ICE bug again, i'll get something meatier  :evil:
