Our Audi S5 has the Bang & Olufsen system. All of the speakers seem to have NEO magnets.

The front doors appear to about 7". The rear midbass are 6.5" and then it has various 3.5" mids and tweeters. It also has an inverted shallow 8" sub.

Are you asking what cars to look to get speakers from or are you asking us if we have them available for you?

yep im trying to find out what other cars have these neomag speakers that I can take from

6.5 7 inch 6x9 or shallow subs is cool

I knoc Cadillac deville sts has a badass 12 inch sub that ive been using as a free air for years using bazookatube amp. it bumps nice

and acura tl 10 inch bose shallow sub is ok too
but im looking for more options

 

all new toyotas have these tiny magnet speakers, sounds like poop too.

 

Newer Subarus do too:

If you can score the Premium ones from a WRX, they have woven cones and separate tweeters:

 

Acura speakers. Nice cone, but same magnet.

 

oh yea ive seen those Kevlar yellow on the accords too but forgot they were also neomags
nice.
nvm the accord speakers have regular magnets on them but same Kevlar yellow cone

keep em coming

more options better.

im also a big fan of Kevlar/carbon fiber cones. I think they sound really close to paper cone. and also water resistant

 

those kevlars look like pioneers.. would not be surprised.. they build lots of OEM systems

 

Light cone and neo magnet- high sensitivity speakers to be driven by low power amps of stock HU.

 

I have aurasound 6.5 components from madisound. but I got the last set. cant find them anywhere.
would love to get another set of those

and yea im looking for head unit power for those. or 35x4watt kenwood amp not more than that

 

well not as small as oem but i think i found few

im kinda undecided between those
and dont have any local stores that have those on display to listen to.

anyone had a chance to listen to them all and maybe can provide some feedback on what they sound like compared to one another?

and also does mbquart even use neodymium mag or just use a fancy name for regular magnet by calling it "high energy magnet"

MB Quart RKM169 6" x 9" Reference Series Coaxial Car Speakers


here are my choices im stuck on
6x9
Polk Audio MM691 6" x 9" Mobile Monitor MM Car Speakers
Alpine SPR-69 Type-R 6" x 9" 600W Coaxial Car Speakers

6.5
Precision Power PPI PC2.65C 6-1/2" 2-Way Component Speaker System (PC265C)
Alpine SPR-60C 6.5" Type-R Component Car Speakers
Alpine SPR-60C 6.5" Type-R Component Car Speakers



please dont delete im not advertizing sonic. imjust using them since they have them all in one place. to reference

 

to bring it back from zombie world.

I just clicked on a page full of old school and classic car audio speakers and 99% of them have neodymium magnets.

what happened there? did they become too expensive or why did we suddenly switch to regular magnets?

heres the page

Classic Car Speakers

 

None of the speakers presented on that page is neo motors, oops.small motor does not mean neo.

 

sorry wrong page
Classic Car Speakers

 

same page showing, no neo motor speakers.

 

wtf why it keeps going to ebay page...

this page hijacked my link with the stupid keyword links I think

heres the link
___http://www.turnswitch.com/speakers.htm___

 

check your computer for viruses , redirection like that is malware behavior.

 

no its from the forum it adds the "classic car speakers" link name and it triggers the link keyword ad here and takes you to ebay. I have no problem with the actual link

 

sucks there aren't many options besides alpine and polks. both of them have mixed reviews
the only other option is image dynamics component 6x9 but they are 600 bucks

 

ok I keep finding more and more aftermarket components with neo mag

I found alpine type-r and spx ref and pro
then polk audio both 6.5 and 6x9

anyone can give me more models that came with neo mag?
I don't know until I see a picture

I know some old kenwod components came with really small neo mags but I forgot

 

so I scored some of those dinky oem speakers from Hyundai or kia... forgot which..
I was expecting a weak ass sound and zero bass.
but was surprised how much tye can handle before overloading.
it feels like they slope right around 50-60hz
but they rattled off the tweeter out of its cup after about 5 minutes.
im gonna find some 6x9s now before I go and order aftermarket neo mag set
at this point im just curious and not planning to keep them in the car.

but if you have a race car and weight is an issue. these are feather light and not bad sound at all. for stock speakers they say 50rms/75peak. but propably Korean standards lol.

im a sucker for paper speaker sound...I can hear the resonance from other materials and it pisses me off..except maybe Kevlar.


they are far from audiophile quality but would cut 10-15lbs of weight along with other weight reduction could help without sacrifice in sound

 

got a set of 6x9 from another kia throw them in the back. and would have to say they are definitely better than what came with the car. 2000 integra.
much better than the oem Honda speakers
total spent 15 bucks and about 20 lbs of weight cut down from swapping the infinity speakers out

far from sq setup but for a weekend warrior these will be plenty.


anyone else knows what model year came with neo mags please post.

I know the Toyota came with jbl neo mags but don't know which model or year


I listened to type-rspeakers and was not impressed still muddy as they always were.

 

The 2007-present Toyota Tundras have the small neo motor speakers. I dissected one of the motors and it was surprisingly sophisticated. It has a copper cap on the pole piece. There are not one but two neo magnets and a low reluctance return path above the second neo magnet for increased BL product. I was impressed, the motor in these is more advanced than your typical aftermarket replacement speakers.

 

bump
keep them coming.
I would love to put something better than KIA speakers into my car something nice

a set of neodymium components would be cool

or even a 3 way set up front and 4 inch woofer in the rear doors and use the 8 inch Volvo woofers with sub output

 

so far they stand up to abuse like a champ
I'm using the 2005 kia rio fronts with vw foam? tweeters
and Volvo carbon fiber cone 8 inch woofers in decklid instead of 6x9s also with neo mags
deck power, a lot of people check trunk for subs.
planning to add a set of 4 inch speakers into the rear doors ran off deck power and throw those woofers on a tiny class D ebay amp and see how it does.
and of course abuse them more and see how long they hold up since they cost 10 bucks a pair and tweeters are free lol


the weight difference is great.
each of those speakers weighs less than a pound
along with lighter tires, lighter exhaust aftermarket vs stock
all unnecessary crap is removed like the oem alarm system ugly ass oem spoiler Is gone
lighter brackets aluminum vs cast iron.
for a 4 banger it is a massive difference while still keeping all the functionality

but if you come across a nicer looking set of oen neo mag speakers please keep this thread in mind
