I finished upgrading all of the speakers, except the subwoofer, in my B&O system. I used Hertz 100.3 4” coaxials in the dash corners and rear pods. I used Hertz 165L 6.5” midbass in the kick panels and a PRV 4” midrange for the center.
I got harness adapters for all 7 speakers from eBay seller FastDaddy. I went with 300hz bass blockers for all 5 of the 4” speakers. Note: These specific Hertz 4” speakers have large terminals for both positive and negative, so I did have to modify the harnesses with a larger terminal adapter for the negative wire.
The result is better than I expected. I would highly recommend this speaker combination. The B&O amp seems to provide sufficient power and drives the new speakers just fine. The volume levels are slightly louder than stock/B&O but with much better sound quality.
I learned so much from the other speaker upgrade threads here on B6G. Special shout out to @Ksjrb03 and @cmcbronco for their detailed and informational threads.
I used a generous amount kilmat in all of the speaker locations. I used polyfill behind the speakers in the dash and rear pods. For the kick panels, I used silicone baffles and no polyfill.
Now, I need to fix the rattle in the sub. I will eventually upgrade the sub (possibly JL Stealthbox), but for now I will be happy if I can fix the rattle.
