![Post Post](./styles/prosilver/imageset/icon_post_target.gif)
So what size speakers is everyone using? Mine had 4 inch ones in the back with adapter plates to fill the hole for 6.5 speakers

I put a pair of new ones in the back which I kind of knew were going to have a bit of a struggle to get heard and yep I could have even put huge PA speakers in the car and I'd still barely be able to hear them on the move. The Midas is not really an ideal place for anything purporting to be a HiFi system

Depends on whether you follow Harold's advice on soundproofing, surely? Although you probably lose about an inch and a half of headroom when you do that.
My Mk 2 was about as quiet as my HLS Metro, as far as I can recall.
