Yes ive got to stop turning it up so loud. Ive already had to replace the sub and that has gone well for me.

(in advance yes i know mcintosh speaker upgrades have been covered alot but i really cant read every audio theread posted in the last 5 years, and upon reading have confused myself even more).

My front right speakers have an awesome rattle and are definately blown. In order of money to sound ratio what is my best option?

I had planned to dynamat the doors only first but now these speakers have died, can i just put new splits in the front and run them off the Mac amp? or will i need to buy a costly 5 channel amp, get a LOC and reamp all speakers? mine is pre facelift and ive read that its easier in pre face than post or something? but ive now confused myself.

Yes you can run a normal set of splits off the Mac amp.

As for types of speakers, refer to any replies Andy85, myself, mihai have replied to.

4ohm. Any 4ohm splits will be fine. Some better than others obviously ;-)
