Where to buy speakers?

[Anton]

May I have advise where I can buy rear speakers for my Sprinter Marino?
The current ones have a strange vibrating sound on the bass notes so looks like time for replacement. Preferably a place that will do fitting too. I live in Onehunga so maybe something near would be convenient. Thanks mates.

if you want cheap no name brand jaycar wouldn't be a bad place to try.. just down the motorway in manakau / aiport oaks..

if you want quality, is Paul money still the place to go?

[Anton]

Hi Adydas, thanks for the reply. How do these cheap no name brands perform? Do they at least sound near the not-so-expensive named brands, like a Pioneer perhaps? Any idea on how long these cheap ones last under moderate use? - 6 months.

How about for speakers in the middle of the price range spectrum, any place you know?
Cheers.

I have heard that the speakers and amps from jaycar perform very well.

whats you budget. Brand name speakers are very cheap nowadays for their entry level lines.

[Anton]

Hi DeeCee. Where can I check out the entry level brand name speakers?


Adydas, is Jaycar also called Jaycar Electronics Pty Ltd? I cannot seem to find it in the Yellow Pages, specially the Manukau address.

Repco sell a few mainstream brands.

[DeeCee]

i wouldn't shop at parallel imported due to previous dodge service and products over the years. Personal preference of course.

I've had no probs with parallel imported. Would go back if I ever needed any more stereo gear.

Does anyone know the phone of Jaycars?

I will go to the "Show N Shine" event at the ASB Showgrounds this Saturday. Hopefully to find some trade stalls for speakers with a good price and who will be willing to fit.

At the car show in ASB showgrounds last Saturday, someone referred me to a place called Hyper, located in the Penrose - G. So. Road area.
Does anyone have any experience with this place? I was informed they give advise on audio set ups, they fit, and have a wide range of audio related items.

They'll be fine, go for it.

Finally got my speakers replaced last week at Hyper. It was just a simple 2 way Pioneer brand 6 inch speaker for the rear and cost $100 including fitting. They have a lot of choices and the staff are willing to give advise if you need it. They also have a nice, comfy waiting area. The cars are done in another area and unless you are accompanied by staff, you cannot enter into that area. I would recommend the place and so far I would say it is the best place in relation to this thread. Cheers to all who participated.
