Does anyone here think that these Pioneer speakers will work in my 96 voyager?

The specifications say they are 90db efficient so volume wont be an issue.

Re: Speakers for 96
The only issues you have to worry about really are the size to match the originals and make sure they are the same impedance AND if they are weather proof or not. I think the speakers on the Voyager are 4 ohm but somebody with more knowledge can chime in on that.

This is correct, 4 inch-4 ohms. The Voyager housing is sized to house a 4 inch speaker. Also, it is a non-grounded speaker system. The only thing to be of any concern with the speakers you have selected is the profile height of the suspended mid and tweeter. Many of these two and three way speaker extend too high for the original Kawasaki speaker covers. Other wise, go for it.

P.S. Keep your phase correct or you will cause a canceling effect between the two speakers. (positive to positive, negative to negative speaker connectors.)
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Re: Speakers for 96
Should be ok.. I use the TS-G1043R and 1044R but those are 2 way.. Water tightness is a problem on the rear and I would recommend trying to re-use the fine mesh from the stock speakers if you can.. Use rubber cement to re-stick..
They seems to have a good freq response and sensitivity.. you will need to drive them slightly harder than the stock..
cheers..

Re: Speakers for 96
Installed the speakers and they are a marked improvement over the stock speakers particularly when using a tape adapter in the cassette deck hooked up to my Sansa fuze MP3 player with EQ.
Went on a nice cruz today and even at highway speeds they are clear enough to hear. I recommend them to anyone looking at replacing the stock speakers in the Voyager.
