New speaker fittings

SAAB 900S - Modern Pioneer Head Unit

Hi everyone

I have a 1996 Saab 900S mk2 convertible. Being the S model, the car didn't come with front door speakers fitted - just rear and top mount dash.

I have purchased a set of JBL CS6 to fit in the doors but have had to make spacers out of MDF. Now all wired up, the sound quality is pretty average. Little bass and quite dreary.

I have disconnected the very small dash speakers in favour of the larger new door speakers and ensured that my positive/negative is correct.

CONFESSION: My initial attempt at making the MDF spacers was poor. There were gaps around where the speakers fitted. I plan to remake the spacers and have also purchased some dynamat to seal everything in.

Is the poor fitting spacer the most likely reason for the issue? Should I be looking anywhere else?

Thanks!!!!!
