I got mine installed and is working very well. At first it was buzzing. It took some time to figure it out but the buzz was from the four sides of the box vibrating against the four sides of the wooden insert. It was tight but not tight enough.



I smeared a thin film of silicone around the edge of the board before pressing it into the housing. Never had any buzz.

I may, and use the same material that I made the 4x10 speaker adapters that I sold out of,, just thicker sheet, or two bonded together.

I bought speaker adapters (sold in pairs) made for Harleys to adapt 6.5" speakers in the 5.25" hole,
I should know in a few weeks when I get the time if this is a bolt together deal, if so.. it make adding a 6.5" sub so much easier..

Try this one http://www.parts-express.co...fer-speaker--264-917

Looks like possibly a better match but I'm no speaker expert.

I have absolutely no idea! You'd have to buy all 3 and try them.
All I can tell you is how well the Tang-Band I HAVE works.
Those who want to buy something else and experiment are free to do so.

I used the Tang-Band on the recommendation of Bigfieroman who did the initial research.
