Mixing speaker sizes
I bought a boat that currently has a set of 6x9 speakers installed in it. Has just one set in the cockpit so I need to add more.
The 6x9s are mounted cut into the bolster so I'm stuck with them. Is it a problem mixing 6x9's and 6 1/2"'s? I am going to replace them so all speakers would be the same series from the same brand, but is the size difference going to affect sound? |
No issue.
Food for thought. its real close, but an 8" speaker like the Wet Sounds Revo-8 will just cover the cutout of a typical 6x9. |

So then the next question is am I better off adding more 6x9's or adding 6 1/2's?
This is in my 39 foot Cruiser. In a large cockpit. Very high gunnels say higher yet than a G23. Probably 12 wide and 14-16' front to back. I was going to add 2 sets of 6 1/2's to go with the existing pair of 6x9's. Then a pair of 12" subs in a ported enclosure. Am I better off adding 2 sets of 6x9's? |
Two things I dont see coming back into style yet they can still be found, are Mullets and marine 6x9 speakers. I would not want to cut more 6x9 holes.

Can you take out the 6x9s & cut some 8s in? If you're redoing your whole stereo and adding more speakers you might as well. 🤷🏼*♂️ |
