Last year my front left speaker died off and ford chaged it under warranty, today while I was doing somw sound proofing in the door, I noticed that the one they put in in different from the originals that I have in the other three doors, So please tell me what the real differences are and which are supposedly the newer better ones? if any...
(The originals ): Heavy metal bracket with a thin paper mesh on top of the plastic holes and it had three mounting holes 2 in the bottom and one on the top.
(The new one ) : Much lighter weight almost half the weight, mainly plastic everything , with a plastic shrowd aroudn the magnet area with a a 20 ohm sticker and no paper mesh. and 4 mounting holes, one on each corner!!
Now, with respect to the sound, I think the original ( on the right side now) has a much stronger bass with may be less high range, while the left one ( plastic) has much weaker bass and better high range output. !!
Please advise.
I have the pioneer 3 way 6865 I think and after putting it in last week I found that it sounded too weak, ( probably due to the whimpy original stereo output) so I put back the original. Which is way better for this stereo.
