Posted December 17, 201113 yr Hello, Would like to say S.Deyoung is a great guy and process of ordering from him was very easy and would recommend to anybody. I order the speakers from him and received them in a very short manner along with some adapters from Car-Speaker-Adapters. Okay, backround information, I drive thisAnd I work here, And this is how much it cost to fill up from E, Lol okay, onward with the install. I will start off by showing step by step pics of the door panel removal procedure and then will post a thorough procedure on ExplorerForum. Okay, again, sorry if I'm taking up too much space, but I hopefully somebody could benefit from seeing the process I took as theres really not any information out there regarding fourth gen Explorers. Ok, now forward with the speaker installation. Here is the stock, IDK I had a tweeter in there Even had its own enclosure! lol Heres a comparison from aboveAnd a view of the KuloBig S/O to Car-Speaker-Adapters. Although I broke the other one, I was still able to use it lol. But in this image, you can see I went at it with a shaver thing-a-ma-jober lol. The basket was too big Check THAT OUT!Okay, this is the last shot. So overall, I am very pleased with the way these sound! Just really need to apply an amp for them. I see a new 50.4 is in the works which looks great so that may be an option. But so far, just off of my stock HU these sound pretty damn good. This is my first product purchase since my last system was stolen and joining the SSA family and would buy anything from them again. So with my gratitude satisfaction, I decided to do this, Tell me what you guys think!!!
December 17, 201113 yr i too used the speaker adapters....and mine was too small also. used a dremel and shaved it out. but looks good
December 17, 201113 yr I like it, nice progress. I would be weary of representing your audio with a sticker since you already got jacked once, to me that is just advertising for thieves.
December 17, 201113 yr Author i too used the speaker adapters....and mine was too small also. used a dremel and shaved it out. but looks goodThanks, yeah, I was just thinking there were too small because the basket of the woofer may have been too big, maybe there designed that way, so the customers would make the perfect fit sucks though if you have no dremel lol I like it, nice progress. I would be weary of representing your audio with a sticker since you already got jacked once, to me that is just advertising for thieves.Thanks!! Oh yeah, believe me, I have done a shit ton of research and developed some ideas once I get a system going. But ATM I don't have anything, no amps, no subs, no aftermarket HU or anything lol So I'm hoping if someone comes peeking, they will be upset to find nothing. But once I get things going after the new year, I hope to start my master plan!
December 17, 201113 yr Author Looks great!Thank you! How do you like these speakers what is the mid base likeI like a lot. Just really wished I had an amp that way I could give you an honest opinion. I will tell you this, There is a significant difference between the updrade. My truck comes with a stock woofer, so by default, what this does is cause all of the lower and lower mids to skip the door panels and go to the woofer in the back. But for w/e frequencies that these are receiving from my stock HU, its amazing I hope that helps
December 17, 201113 yr Looks like a pretty nice upgrade. Only $60 to fill that thing up? You're lucky, mine costs around $100. It only gets 11.5mpg too
