I'm posting this question for all S-Pod owners, so I can better recommend brands I'm not familiar with to new customers. So far I know these fit with no issues:
(All are 5.25 components)

Alpine
Infinity
Crystal


These fit, but need modification:

MB Quart

Thanks for your help.

 

I have Infinity kappa,
I would recommend that to anyone!


good luck

 

Mark,

I have a set of S-pods to install and have been looking at these:

I do not plan to upgrade the head unit, I just want to be able to hear the music with the top down at highway speeds. Do these look like a good choice. Will they fit? Been a long time since I've bought car stereo stuff, does the price look good?

Thanks!

 

Polk 5.25" work great and fit perfectly in the S Pods.

 

These are are great choice at a great price. Have ben used many times, and will fit perfectly.

Thanks for the input, it will be useful to many new customers.

 

I had some kenwoods. They were a PITA to fit, and required modification.

I now have Boston Acustics. It was a drop-in fit. Easy as pie.

(I don't have component rears)

 

Blaupunkt 5.25 fit perfectly with no mods. required.

 

I used Infinity Reference Components with the S-Pods. They matched up perfectly with the S-pods. By the way Mark, your instructions were awesome. They covered every part of the install and made it go smoothly.

 

Thanks everyone!

Brands that fit perfectly in S-Pods are: Alpine, Infinity, Crystal, Polk, Boston Acustics, and Blaupunkt...so far.

Brands that fit with modification are: MB Quart, and Kenwood.

 

So Conedodger, which speakers did you end up getting and how do they sound? I also don't really want to upgrade my deck but would love some better speakers. I really want Infinity Kappas but don't know if the deck can power them to their potential.
