Worked in rear doors of 2005-2014 XC90

Provides water shield for speakers, marked as 6.5" speaker baffle, but worked with the 6.75" fosgates we had. Make sure you cut an opening in the bottom per the install video Crutchfield has for this item to produce more bass. Worked in rear doors of 2005-2014 XC90

XTC 6-3/4" Pair of Speaker Baffles

Figured I'd try these out. Inexpensive and easy to install. Everything went great with the 6 & 1/2s in the rear, but the fronts were 6 & 1/2s installed into a 6x9 mounting bracket that was correctly identified as needed for my vehicle. This still leave a gap within the bracket. Perhaps there's a 6x9 baffle that should have been used instead based on the use of the bracket for better weather protection?

Measurements are not accurate

Listing says 6 3/4 but the factory label says 6.5, (see picture). On top of that the actual diameter is less than 6". There was no way to wiggle. I think it's a manufacturer's mislabeling because Crutchfield sent me the exact item ordered, it's not their fault. I contacted customer service and they refunded my money. It's better to contact sales prior to summiting your order. A sales person will review your cart and match the right baffles to the rest of your order.

Good protection, distorted sound

These are a mixed bag. The purpose of them-protecting the speakers from moisture-is great. What's not great is the back wave distortion they introduce into the speakers they protect. I was able to fix this by adding dynamat the inside of the baffle. All's well that ends well I suppose.

Replacing Speakers in 2008 Sierra

Everything I needed to replace the rear speakers in my 2008 Sierra. I got the Kicker46CSC674 speakers, XTC 6-3/4" speaker baffles, Scosche SAGMHR-634 Speaker Mounting Brackets, Metra 72-4568 Speaker Wiring Harness, and the Bojo Trim Panel Tools. The stock speakers go out due to poor design with water reaching the speaker through the door. All items listed above will replace those speakers at a very reasonable price and they sound great. Shipping was fast and I was updated from shipping to arrival of product. Anyone with a 2007-2013 Silverado or Sierra, this will fix your rear speaker problems.

A must have for

A most have if you buying premium speakers AKA expensive, so I didn't know the water get inside the door every time the vehicle get wet rain car wash you call it, happens I opened my 2022 CRV doors panel to swap speakers and the factory speakers was wet so expending more than $250 on a component speakers for only my front doors can't think In not doing something to protect them from the water so I got this baffles together with my rear speakers upgrade and yes speakers was wet happen it was after another rain I did the replacement so sound got better am happy something else I use foam tape between the door and the adapter and between the speakers and the doors panels and baffles right under the speakers lastly I did a cut opening in the bottom part of the baffles of about 1.75" by 3" inches so the performance of the speakers doesn't get affected negatively and am can't be more happy, a must have from now on for me.

A must have when replacing the factory door speakers in your 07+ GMC Sierra! These will prevent the water leak design flaw from damaging your new speakers like it did the factory speakers. That alone should warrant the purchase but they also help with sound quality. So win-win.

same problem as always

too deep to fit in spaces alwatys need modificatioin and the rimed edge never is quite wide enough to make a seal to the mounting brackets to 90% of the speaker mounting kits on the market. I would have thought after 20+ years on the market they would have figured this out by now. I mean they are a cheaper alternative to speed rings which are always needing modification also but way cheaper than sound deading an entire door panel for 1 speaker lol.

They don't fit Chevy Cobalt, contrary to Crutchfield's recommendation.

The product itself may be ok, I wouldn't know. They are too deep for my car. I have no idea why Crutchfield recommends these for installation in Chevy Cobalt doors, the window hits them when you roll it down. If you have a Cobalt save the $ and don't buy these unless you want to seriously modify them.

They work

So I did an experiment, one door I used these on installation, the other I didn't. Wow you can tell a difference in deeper more stereo sound. I did put the other one back in also. They were a little big, that's ok, still worked. And seemed to be a little deep, why? They don't need to be that deep. Still ok they worked and happy I bought them.

The baffles work as designed. I purchased them because my newly installed speakers were distorting when it rained. Water was getting in the connection. The wires are staying dry and the distortion is gone. If your after market speakers have a deeper mounting depth than the factory speakers, I highly recommend these baffles to keep everything dry. Keep in mind, that your bass is reduced with these baffles however your highs are not affected. I'm convinced now that I need to add a subwoofer.

Not worth the side effects.

These will probably do what they are intended to do, protect the speaker. But the side effect of sucking all the bass out of the speaker is not worth it.

Great investment! Great sound reinforcement

Worked great in creating more mid bass from my Fosgate P1675's. Also happy with the way they fit. I did order the deeper ones for my 2003 Suburban and found out that the windows in the rear doors would hit the baffles so I had to modify them a bit, which was real easy to do. I would have been better off buying the shallower ones for the back door, but that was my fault. The product worked great, it still seals up my speakers from dust, moisture etc. and also gives me much better sound. I am very pleased with these baffles.

Idk, it fit over my speakers. Easy to with scissors so hopefully it'll keep them raindrops off of my speakers. They're kind of deep, so I wouldnt have been able to keep the backside of it on if I wanted to, since the window on my '16 corolla woulda hit it near the bottom.

Add mid bass

Protects speakers from water damage. You will need to cut a slit for speaker wire to run through, and a quarter size hole so that your speakers don't get muffled by the tight air space.

Good additions to speakers

So didn't realize that I was supposed to cut whole for ventilation and they sounded muffled. Once I realized this I opened it up again and cut the back out of them and the sound was way improved. I was surprised how much more bass and sound it had before I cut the baffles. Would recommend.

Have questions for

Crutchfield response on

Don't bother

I bought these because the last set were ruined buy water. Now I'm sure they do the job of protecting the speakers but may as well not have speakers at all. The sure baffle the performance. In my case I could have just thrown a handful of rocks in the bottom of the door. That's how is sounded when the back of the baffle was smacking the door.

Have questions for

Crutchfield response on

Good product

Bought both standard and shallow depth since I didn't know what would fit best. Used the shallow depth for clearance reasons. Seem to work very well, haven't noticed any vibration or rattling noise since installing. And the extra protection is always a good thing, especially since there was a good amount of dust inside my doors (darn dirt roads). Install was pretty easy. Cut off some excess material and made a cut out section that looks like a smiley face below the company logo for wires and air flow. Then clamped them in place using my speaker mounting brackets.

Crutchfield response on

Works as advertised

While installing new speakers in 2012 GMC Terrain, I noticed back side of the speakers were wet and I had some slight door vibration after the initial installation. I installed the baffles to cut down on the vibration and keep moisture out of the speakers. I did have to cut a small slit in the baffle at the bottom to allow the wires to pass through. All in all these worked like a charm!

Speaker baffles are always a good idea. They keep water and debris from the backside of your speakers and I think makes them sound better.

Eets Good Yes? No! Yes?!

Ok, so there's no doubt you're getting some extra moisture/elements protection -- but what about their effect on the sound? The ONLY true way you're gonna tell what they do to YOUR speaker's sound & interior acoustics is to 1) Not install them, then listen carefully -- then 2) Install them, then listen carefully [A LOT OF @#%#! WORK - YEEAS!!] So be that as it may - I installed 2 only in my rear door speakers - and consequently - they sound better/tighter/punchier than my front speakers - GO FIGURE! - So I'm going to buy 2 more now, lol

Only for speaker protection

Purchased these for aftermarket install for 2002 Sierra. Running on x998 HU power only. Cut small 1"x3" below speaker assuming it would vent well enough as I read from other reviews. Now have cut more than 50% of basket away just to get reasonable bass response. Nice idea to protect the speaker, foam is easy to work. Probably wouldn't buy again. Also used in 4"x6" rear doors, need to "modify" them in a similar manner.

Great Product!

I had the smaller ones in my car for 10 years. They got ripped when my system was stolen, so i eventually had to replace them. I put them in the rear deck on my Alpine co-axial 6.5 speakers. Using spray glue, i attached poly-fil to the inner walls of the baffle. I was able to turn my HPF all the way down to 50hz, and the speakers don't distort, even at full volume. There was an improvement in mid-bass clarity, too. They are kind of flimsy, and they are certainly no substitute for a proper enclosure, but given how easily they installed, and the difference they made, i am happy. They sound better in these than they did in the smaller ones i installed 10 years ago. Overall, i am very happy with these. USE POLY FILL! I have installed these with, and without, and it sounds better WITH the poly-fil.
