put decent speakers in existing fittings ? - advice sought
any tips for make/model of speaker that will take a bit more of a hammering without buzzing and distorting than those fitted as standard to an '88 Clipper?( i am not talking huge ragga sub-bass at 6000db, only a bit of death-metal/prog rock using the standard fitted (?) Sony XR 5890r
the catch is i dont want to start carving holes in the shelf,door trim etc,something that will screw straight into existing door fittings would be grand….
any ideas? (dont say "change music taste" ha ha)
cheers to CrazyQuiff btw for helping solve my other problem ;-)

Changed my OE 20yr old pioneers for jbls and guess what, they sound the same.
Can't get decent sound from a speaker without a decent mounting, something they didn't quite grasp when they designed the mk1 door pods.
As long as your speakers are intact, i'e no rips or tears in the cones, locate buzzing,maybe a loose screw or something, fix it, leave old speakers and spend money on something else that'll actually make a difference.
As if a speaker is gonna make Death Metal any clearer? Reminds me of an old Napalm Death anecdote, my friend supported them in the early days and said when they were "warming up" it didn't matter what cords the bassist played as he had so much distortion the same noise came out.

Looks in fact like the speakers have been cut (i.e. scissors) to make them fit in the hole!
But there are no screws to hold it in.. as I said, just one plastic nail kinda thing.
I'll try and take a pic to let you know what I mean. If on the off chance somebody knows exactly what I mean, advice please on how to make it stop buzzing with the bass!
