the original size is 6 1/2

5 1/4 and 6 1/2 are "usually" the same price.

Ahem.. Price diff between between 5 1/4's and 6.5's is usually about $10-30 depending on the specific speaker with the 6.5's being MORE expensive.. Also don't but any speaker spacers they're made outta cheap plastic mostly. Just cut out of a 3/8" thick piece of Plywood, or MDF a spacer that would fit.. Works great..

Cheers
Mohawk
