Do the 7 inch speakers make a big difference in sound and quality oppossed to the 6.5 inch speakers?

Not a huge difference. In reality it just depends on what your doing with the speakers, if it doesn't matter how big they are then go with the 7", but if you are installing them in your car buy which ever ones fit your cats factory speaker mounts. Hope this helps

I wouldn't say much. They probably sound a little better in the bass department but it's going to be such a small difference it won't matter. I've noticed with mine the louder I have them the better they sound. I actually have a larger speaker that fits in my door so I had to tap holes into my door frame. I wouldn't recommend getting a speaker larger than what's fits your car. Mine rattled a little bit so I had to get foam to put around the edge of the speaker to stop it... Hope this helped.

Fosgate speakers make an excellent up grade. Not easy to install. I have the 6.5".I don't think 1/2 will make a difference. Get an amp & subwoffers

No they don't...the 7 inch speakers sound just as good as the 6.5...in my opinion.

I own a 350z.lots of plastic to remove. I had to purchase an adapter ring. Get info at Crutchfields.

Yes... but you need the box to get the deep sound you probably desire... if you are not using a box you might as well buy a pair of 6X9's and save some money... i hope this helps you if you have any other questions my email is carrozm@gmail.com

The range the speakers is better, meaning better sound, but unless your running the volume higher. You will not hear a big difference.

The bass is awesome for 6.5 inch speakers ... They are pretty powerful and still very clear.

Yes, good question. I have a 7.1 sound system in place and don't want to loose the quality I have. I wouldn't mind losing all the speakers though. If it isn't true 7.1, they shouldn't call it that.

They sure will, crisp clean and pretty impressive for how small they are, be sure to run them with a nice amp, and don't forget they have a 20 hour break in period, as all nice speakers do, so don't crank them right away, and set your amp to small speaker size as well, you'll be happy, I am

Yes. I did myself to get 7.1. You can test it out with the movie "War Horse"' since it has 7.1. I can guarantee you will love these speakers.

I upgraded to 8" speakers from 6" (different brand) and noticed a much deeper and richer sound. I love them.

If your stock speakers are 6.5" yes if not you will have to buy a trim ring to get them to fit securely

I don't think it will make much difference. I plugged them into cheap Creative desktop speakers and the sound was great when it worked.

I have a 6.1 system and use them for the 5.1 portion with my previous JBL surround for the center rear (6). Your 6-7 are the same as my 4-5 so you should be fine. I'm assuming that your 4-5 are the side surround and not the rear? I would use them in rear since the side surrounds aren't really critical for the overall surround effect. (IMHO)

No, I don't think sound quality was any different, and the 7w had a loud, annoying fan that ran all the time. I sent mine back. -- R Carlson MD

Thank you for asking and these speakers sound amazing and are also a standard 6.5inch speaker I am not 100percent sure about if will the depth work or not but the diameter will

You should have 6.5" stock speakers in their now so yes, it does not mean they are going to necessarily slide right in to replace the old ones but it should be close, depends on the bolt pattern of your old speakers

In theory yes; I didn't buy the 6" to compare. 8" should provide better mid/low range frequency response, but 6" would be adequate if your system has a subwoofer. I bought the larger size because it's diameter was easier to install in my ceiling. What I liked the most was that they were low profile. Also, their installation was very easy and secure; definitely a well thought out product.

I didn't purchase the 6x9's. The speakers I purchased were only replacements for 13yr old blown out factory speakers in my old p/u truck. I'm not much of a car audio expert but if you're driving 2 amplified subs without any "speaker" amplification, you're missing out on a lot of sound. Amping your speakers will not give much more bass but will really make a difference in your overall sound quality. I for one don't care how good a system sounds outside of a vehicle cabin. It's all about the inside for me. As far as an amp, stick with your well known names. You'll pay a little more but low noise values and amp efficiency all equate better sound at the speaker as well as a long life. I didn't purchase the 6x9's.

Actually, from what I've gotten out of mine so far it almost sounds better in medium sized rooms. The speaker size and shape directs the sound in a fairly linear way, and doesn't spread very well at short distances, but if you're more than about 5 feet away from them, you should be fine.
