Why would anybody think about changing speakers in their car? If Elon the Great decided that we should only have the choice between the partial premium and premium interiors/sound systems, then shouldn’t we accept that there are no other options? Has it ever crossed your mind that not everybody wants to have the same car? While I am thankful that you and flashflooder pioneered the Infinity speaker option showing what is possible, it does not mean I want to do the exact same thing as you two. Did you see the thread where someone mentioned they were developing a drop in speaker that required no additional modification? And how many people replied that they’d love that option? Obviously they didn’t want to settle for the Infinity speakers that are apparently the best and only speaker option for a Model 3. If I had $1,000 to devote solely to speakers I’d drop in 3 or the aforementioned Morels in the front and be done. It would look completely stock and that is what I’d prefer. Unfortunately for me, I don’t have that extra money right now and while you seem happy to take a short cut, I don’t want to do that at this point. I stated that before, just because your seltzer tab clip works for you, it doesn’t for me. Please stop telling me what worked for you will work for me. It’s a $40k car, I don’t want can tabs holding things together in mine.
Yes, the JBL has a tweeter that slightly protrudes more than the Infinity, did you assume as a petulant while I missed that? They are made by the same company, the performance specs of the speaker are the same (3ohm which is the most important of all in regards to keeping volume and wear and tear on the amp the same with new speakers) and they happen to be $15 a pair cheaper which since I am basically buying 4 to use 3, makes the 4th one free compared the the Infinity set. Also note that the Tesla stock speaker frame has a thickness to it that is about the same as the JBL tweeter protrudes and said JBL speaker doesn’t have a thick frame. If you want to provide help, you should have asked me if took note of the protruding tweeter on the JBL.
Please stop lecturing me like a petulant child and you are the only person who knows what’s best for me. I came here like everyone else seeking advice. I read what was there and it didn’t answer my questions. I said it before and I’ll say it again, if you can’t answer my question, don’t say anything at all. You believe something won’t work? Have you tried it? No? Then shut it. This from the guy who said Tesla and BMW speakers weren’t the same size and mounting. If you don’t know, don’t put wrong information out there. If you have tried the JBL GX 402 in a Model 3 and it didn’t work, please show me the post with pictures where you documented this and I will apologize and tuck my tail and take what is coming to me.
