Question, I have a 99 Blazer zr2 and found out that Infinity Perfect 6.5 were too deep to fit in my doors, SO I settled for some reference componants but am not real impressed. If they will fit, would the Perfect 5.25 sound better even though they are smaller? I dont know for sure if they will fit either but if I found out that they will is it worth it to replace them? |

They will sound a LOT better. Well worth replacing them. |

Thanks once again for the advice I will check into this if they will fit! Thank you again Jonathan, I think the fit may be tight but it sounds like it is worth it from your advice so I will see what I can do |

Perfects are a much better component set. Better mid, tweeter, and crossover, the References will sound muddled and blurry compared to the clarity of the Perfects. Go to www.infinitysystems.com and download the component PDF's, they should have mounting depths on there, and you can compare the depth of the Reference 6.5" to the Perfect 5.25" woofer. |

I just looked on there and the mounting depth of the Perfect 5.1 is 2 3/8" inches, while the Reference 6000cs is 2 1/6", for comparison the 6.1 is 2 3/4", so measure it up and see if you can spare 5/16 of an inch, or more if possible. |

Oh, by the way, the Regular Kappa components are 2 3/16, and are also a large improvement over the Reference series. |

Thanks again Jon, I may be able to fit at least the regular Kappas in there. I am going to get a accurate measurement so I will get the best that will fit in there. |
