Speaker Size

Does anyone have any idea as to what size the speakers in the RX-8 would be.

I hope that Mazda does not have to follow what appears to be a Ford mandate for 6X8 speakers. If you can do 6X8, just go ahead and give me 6X9's. 6X9's are infinitely better and have a wider variety available.

My experience with Infinity 6X9 Kappa's was and is great. These speakers are possessed of clarity beyond anything else available for cars, and outperform many home speakers.

I am PRAYING that they install 6 and a half components in the front, another set of them in the rear and a sub.

That's a 9 speaker system, not too much to ask for.

Then I guess you haven't had that much experience then, have you?
