agree , many were 4x10 or some odd size between that and 6x9 I no issue with anything ( know nothing about any300 after 62, despite having a J at one point long ago) except i do know the really good speakers are 6x9 , and good price too . Sold in pairs I avoid the ones with all the tweeters and other garbage, but to get the good frame ( largest magnet weight,) you usually to move up one tier , may have single tweeter Stick to Japanese quality , Pioneer , Kenwood etc ohms not as critical as made out 4 ohm ok on 8 , will play louder but distort sooner There are good ones in 6” round too On Dec 7, 2024, at 3:21 PM, Ryan Hill <ryan_hillc300@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
John, I don’t want to muddy the waters too much about 1965’s on a 300K thread, my original response was to suggest making a mount to attach two small right and left speakers in the single speaker position.
To be clear though, the front speaker opening on my 1965 300 and several others I’ve seen is 4 X 10. I think they had an adapter bracket that allowed for the use of a 6 x 9. It’s been more than 20 years since I had my eyes on the installed speaker panel
but I still have the original 4 x 10 in a box here. My car had the two speaker system with reverb. Attached is a picture of a 6 X 9 with the adapters taken from a c-body forum.

The front speaker for the 300L is 6x9. I'm just finishing up a plate to mount two 4" Alpine speakers.

For my front speaker on my ’65 I made a mounting panel the same dimension as the original speaker, which I recall was 4” x 10”. I cut two speaker holes in the plate and mounted small Rockford Fosgate speakers to it. It sounds great and avoided the cost
of custom speakers. Rear are 6” x 9” and bolt up directly under the package tray.
