    Default Replacement speakers for an 05 outback. same size

    Hi all,
    I know there is lots of chatter about upgrading the factory speakers that come in the boats. I have one that is blown and figure if Im going to replace one I might as well just do them all..figure its just a matter of time.
    Any recommendations on replacemensts that I would just be able to drop into the exsisting holes without any cutting etc to add new ones..

    Let me know

    Thanks
    Jay

    The Polk DB650/651's are pretty common.. I put 6 in my Outback last summer before selling.. sounded WAY better... They are marine rated as well..

    This is what I did. I bought a set of trim rings from JesseC, and bought any 6.5" speakers.

    Hey Smrtz, I had the same issue...I finally blew one of the factory speakers so I replaced them all with Polk DB651's and they not only look awesome...but they sound sweet. I like the adjustable directional tweeter. I got a good deal on them at a local Circuit City.
