Audi A3 8P - Door speaker upgrade, what are my options?

[soulwaffle]

Hi All,

I'm looking to upgrade my front door speakers. Currently I have stock (not BOSE) speakers. I've upgraded the headunit to an avh-9200. Budget per speaker: 200-300. Looking for a decent amp as well.

I see dynamic sounds has this: https://www.dynamicsounds.co.uk/audi-a3-8p-2003-2012-6-5-inch-front-door-speaker-upgrade-kit.html

I see the brand 'feelart' but not a lot of info on google. When I start looking at 'top 10 brands' I'm getting things from jbl/pioneer etc. The speakers are like £80-90. Where can I reliably research 'good brands' for car speakers. A little new to this so presume I'm a little naive

Yeah I agree, something doesn't seem right to demand that kind of price.

I dont mind paying the ££ but I've got no way to gauge which speakers are going to be me good sound.

I came across this site: https://glasswolf.net/papers/goodbadugly.html ...Focal seem to be right up there in terms of front door speakers.

think I've found a list of 'high end' brands:

Morel Supremo 602,
Dynaudio Esotec 362,
Hybrid Audio Legatia,
Focal Utopia
Audiofrog GB

Nice ZenZen, I'm looking at the same setup or ES165KX3. Did you get an adapter to make 'plug and play' ?

They are all plug and play no splicing from scr shop. I did the installation though
