Upgrade your recreational vehicle sound system with easy-to-install in-ceiling speakers
Ever since I was a kid, one of the first upgrades I had to make on any vehicle was the sound system. We just bought a new Airstream 23′ Globetrotter, so here we go…
For the Airstream, the first thing I did was replace the factory speakers. Luckily, they are easy to remove and replace. Finding a replacement speaker for the slightly smallish 6 3/4″ opening was a tad challenging and limited my choices some, but I was able to find a few good candidates and settled on the Definitive Technology DI 5.5R in-ceiling speakers.
Hi Antoine,
It was a great upgrade, especially coupled with upgrading the subwoofer. The combo is quite good – really nice sound. The Definitive Tech 5.5 alone probably give up some bottom end compared to the factory speakers, but they are much cleaner mids to highs.
You have convinced me and thanks again for the great instructions. I’m doing this project in my globetrotter this weekend.
Thank you. I’ve contemplating this same upgrade in my globetrotter as well
