Can I use car speakers for home audio?

Jul 30, 2010 by redsfan | Posted in Home Theater

I want to get new speakers for my home stereo system because my current ones are huge. I looked up prices for new speakers and they are very high. I noticed I can get car audio speakers for very cheap. Can I make an enclosure for the car speakers

I've seen it done before, but the quality was not good, car speakers are 4 ohm and most home amps are 8 ohm, you run the danger of burning out the home amp, you can use a car amp with a converter but car amps are not that clean sounding in a home environment..also

Boss Audio Phantom Skull Series Car Speakers | Sonic Electronix Blog

Boss Audio prides itself on being a trendsetter in the car audio industry when it comes to the cosmetic design of their products. They produce a wide variety of car audio products such as headunits, power amplifiers, loudspeakers, subwoofers and more. Boss Audio designs their products to not only look good, but perform well too. This can be said for their newest line of speakers which is called the Phantom Skull Series. Here at Sonic Electronix, we carry the 4” x 6” SK462, 5-1/4” SK552, 5-1/4” 3-way SK553, and the most popular 6-1/2” SK652 .

The Phantom Skull Series Car Speakers are very catchy to the eye with the custom tooled removable skull design tweeter cover. This cover is a chrome plated skull design with red eyes that light up to match the beat of the music. Boss Audio designed this to add some flavor and looks to any car audio system. Each set of speakers in this series is constructed with a black metallic poly injected cone, butyl rubber surrounds, and either a 1” mylar dome tweeter or 1” piezo tweeter (SK553 only). The metallic poly injected cone provides durability during long sessions of operation while the butyl rubber surrounds provide high amounts of excursion. A couple other shared features include a 1” high temperature aluminum voice coil and a 4 ohm impedance.
