I have just ordered a Heng long 7.1 radio with esc/sound unit. What size, watt, make ect., of speaker would you recommend for this unit?
Do you need an amp or is the sound good enough?
Thanks, Noel.

Re: Speaker recommendations.
Indeed, your is a question that has come up frequently here on RCTW (and other lists). Using the search function on the upper right of every page, I came up with these among lots of hits:

Re: Speaker recommendations.
Strange, i searched for speakers and couldn't find a definite answer, mustn't have been using the correct words to search.
Thanks for the links.

Besides the Visaton FRS7 and FRS7S, I have used these:
Dayton Audio PC68-8 2-1/2" Full-Range Poly Cone Driver
Dayton Audio
Part # 295-152
Model: PC68-8
https://www.parts-express.com/Dayton-Au ... quantity=1
The Daytons are deeper than the Visaton with a larger magnet so they won't fit in some tanks. I think they perform better in larger boxes.
