6x9 Speakers
6x9 inch car speakers for parcel shelves and the doors of cars that take an oval speaker.
The large oval cone gives more bass than a round speaker of similar width, which makes 6x9s a popular upgrade for rear shelves and older cars. Choose coaxial models that drop in on their own, or component and midbass versions for a fuller system. Browse all car speakers, or have yours fitted at our Nottingham workshop.
6x9 Speakers FAQs
Q: Where do 6x9 speakers fit?
A: Usually in the rear parcel shelf of saloons and older hatchbacks, and in the doors of some cars and vans. Check your car's speaker size before you buy, or ask us.
Q: Do 6x9 speakers need an amplifier?
A: Most will run from a car stereo. An amplifier gives more volume and clearer sound, especially for higher-power models.
Q: Are 6x9 speakers better than 6.5 inch?
A: A 6x9 has a larger cone area, so it can produce more bass, but the right choice is whatever fits your car. Many cars take 6.5 inch speakers in the doors and 6x9s on the shelf.
Q: What is the mounting depth of a 6x9 speaker?
A: It varies by model. Each speaker's Specification tab lists its mounting depth, so you can check it clears your shelf or door.
Q: Can CEN fit my 6x9 speakers?
A: Yes. We supply and fit car speakers at our Beeston, Nottingham workshop.
