Speaker adaptors e.g. 16cm -> 17cm

Anyone know of such a thing ? Found some speakers but they are 15cm and IIRC the S1 is 17cm.

TIA

That is only 10mm at each mount point. Can you not just file the speaker holes to slots and use washers?

I didn't think S1's had speakers due to them weighing too much. Does yours have carpets too??

It was actually a replacement set and it was a set of the Kenwood dual mags which would actually be weight saving over the Alpines, so there :wink:

And as for carpets...
