Audio system for a Twingo 1, 2006

Question

Hello everyone!
So here it is, I have a little problem. I have a Twingo 1, year 2006, and I would like to change the entire audio system. There are already two speakers in the front doors, and two "speakers" at the air vents (below the windshield). So I currently have 4 speakers.
The sound is... mediocre, I want to change everything. I've heard that there are specific diameters?
The problem is that I absolutely don't know which speakers to choose.
I don't want a subwoofer. I just want to replace the ones that are already there, and if possible, add two more in the back in the designated spaces.

I don't really have a budget limit, but I would like to spend as little as possible, ideally not exceeding €300.

The goal: To have a good sound, with a good bass response.

Thank you in advance,

Eristalo

If you often have passengers, yes, you'll need speakers in the back; in that case, you should use the same range as in the front.

For the rear, you need coaxial speakers.

In the front, a component kit (it looks like this: https://www.cdiscount.com/pdt2/1/3/5/1/700x700/auc8018823104135/rw/hertz-dsk-1653-kit-eclate.jpg).

A tweeter is the small speaker located at the dashboard level.

200€ for the whole set? New or used?

Hi, it's not the speakers that are bad; do you have the original car radio? The best thing to start with is to change the car radio, as it really improves the bass, quality, settings, etc. With 300€, you can change the car radio and the speakers or just the car radio with a 2-channel amplifier.

The car radio has already been changed, it's true that the sound is better, but not yet to my expectations. I would like something really good.  Best regards

Do you have the reference for the car radio?

In Twingos, it's 13 cm; you have two options:

You can replace the speakers, but with 13 cm, you shouldn't expect crazy bass, or if you're handy, you can upgrade the speakers to 16.5 cm.

Or, you can keep the original speakers and get a 4-channel amp to power the speakers + a sub.

Or you can get a 2-channel amp and change the front speakers.

And if I replace the two speakers in the doors, and integrate the same two speakers behind with the bracket for mounting on the suspension, while keeping the two small ones at the windshield level?

Are there parameters to prioritize? (impedance, sensitivity, frequency, etc.)
I am willing to spend 100 euros for two speakers, which makes 200€ for 4.

Best regards.

kevin14789 · Answer

Installing speakers in the rear is unnecessary, as the sound should come from the front and not from behind,

if you change the front, you need a component kit, so you have to replace the speaker in the door and the tweeter situated near the windshield

Yes, I understand well, but when you're in the back, you can clearly hear that the sound is only coming from the front... it's not very pleasant for my passengers :/

So do you think I should get two coaxial speakers in the doors? What is a tweeter?

Best regards,

Eristalo · Answer

200 euros for the whole lot in new.
So would these be suitable?

http://www.autobacs.fr/media/catalog/product/cache/2/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/9/8/98867.jpg

This kit is listed at 99€

Maximum power: 250 W
RMS power: 65 W
Woofer installation diameter: 11.0 cm
Woofer mounting depth: 4.3 cm

Frequency response: 65 Hz to 20 kHz
Impedance: 4 ?
Sensitivity: 87dB / W (1m)

And regarding the impedance, frequency, power parameters, etc.
Which ones are optimal?

And then at the back the same but without the tweeter if I understood correctly.

Best regards.

kevin14789 · Answer

Alpines are mediocre, it won't be better than the originals.

For the specs, we look at RMS watts and independence.

Yes, you can do the same without the tweeter.

Otherwise, a component kit designed to be connected to a car radio: http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/page-privacy

With the rear speakers: http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/page-privacy

I've already ordered from this site, there are no issues.

So these speakers are of good quality? Are the bass good?  There's no price in euros...

kevin14789 · Answer

Yes, they are good speakers, the bass will be more present but don't expect great quality.

You need to go through with the order to see the prices in €
