An oval speaker cannot produce a proper sound wave as a round speaker can. It is simple physics. In most cases those who want 6X9's are looking for more mid bass from their system. However when these same oval speakers are asked to produce these lower frequencies along with the higher ones, there ca...

MX3 Money.

Most airport gas stations in Canada offer up to 100 octane. Head up to the 'Shwa airport on Harmony Rd and they should have some.

Try a "Flitz ball" to make it an even sand job. (a polishing device that attaches to the end of a hand drill.) It saves your arm strength too. I used one on mine and it worked great.

cheers!
