    E36 JL Audio stealthbox rebuild?

    The foam in my stealthboxes is done. I'm running a jvc headunit and a 4x50 Alpine amp with ads 535 separates up front. Should I just bolt new subs in the cases or consider 6" full range speakers? I'm fine with the front sound stage, but wondering if speakers would drive easier than subs.

    Scratch 6" full range options and consider 6x9 if you are into weight savings. PMed you as well.

    You can get new foam and rebuild the stealthboxes yourself.. i did this a long time ago. Dont remember where i got the parts but its available from a lot of online vendors. Came out well.

    Just closing out a thread. I did get foam and rebuilt my speakers. It was a lot easier than I expected. They're not great, but they fit well and the kit was dirt cheap.
