Which doesn't mean they shift less air. There's more at play than just cone area.But are smaller....
Certainly not - I can't comment on their performance vs the T6 ones. Although I do know the stock T6.1 speakers are sh1te..... hence I have the Alpine speaker upgrade (+ sub + rear speakers)Which doesn't mean they shift less air. There's more at play than just cone area.
So here are the T6 speakers mounted 15 cm down from the door handle with plenty of room to let the sound escape.They're shite, yet I'm a professional musician with some experience as a recording engineer and seem to think they're OK for what they are (although far from being top flight.) I've had a lot worse in modern cars with a supposed luxury spec cabin.
But indeed, still decent room for replacing/upgrading if that floats ones boat.
The biggest sonic issue is the environment into which it's fitted.
Those 2 pics look identical.So here are the T6 speakers mounted 15 cm down from the door handle with plenty of room to let the sound escape.

And here are the 6.1 speakers 25cm down from the door handle just above the little bin with very little escape holes.

Running the 2 vans side by side the difference was apparent immediately.Certainly not - I can't comment on their performance vs the T6 ones. Although I do know the stock T6.1 speakers are sh1te..... hence I have the Alpine speaker upgrade (+ sub + rear speakers)
Well, someone swore they were identical.Those 2 pics look identical.
Well they did until you updated your post.
Most confusing!I can’t keep up!
I do swear a lot - that much is true.Well, someone swore they were identical.
Let's wait for Sasquatch to clear things up ..... musician, sound engineer and all that lark?Most confusing!
As a fellow musician and former musical director, I will confirm that the last time a musician was wrong, was when they thought they were wrong!Let's wait for Sasquatch to clear things up ..... musician, sound engineer and all that lark?
Oo, oo, can I be a musician / md?As a fellow musician and former musical director, I will confirm that the last time a musician was wrong, was when they thought they were wrong!
You are always mostly right!Oo, oo, can I be a musician / md?
No. The 6.1 door speakers are smaller than the t6Running the 2 vans side by side the difference was apparent immediately.
I too upgraded to a basic kit with speakers, tweeters and door insulation.
The sound is now up to (maybe slightly better than) the T6, but still seems a bit lost and closed in.
The stock speakers for the 6 and 6.1 would be exactly the same I'd imagine.
Too kind (and wrong!)You are always mostly right!
Precisely!! Case in point, I have the unfortunate experience of driving a BMW X3 'M' (or something) at the moment and the sound system is so underwhelming it is unbelievable!!!I've had a lot worse in modern cars with a supposed luxury spec cabin.
