2014 P7010C Speaker Size?

charles todd · Oct 2, 2014

What size speakers are in the 2014 P7010C "New Style" cab? I have a feeling they are going to need upgraded to 2-way or 3-way speakers. Maybe even a small powered sub behind the seat. Nothing wild, just something to enjoy some Classic Rock with while tractoring. I have not really checked out the head unit fully yet. But it seems to at least have a USB port for a thumb drive and maybe even an AUX port or Bluetooth. Its a Sony head unit.

Which make me wonder if the head unit is dealer installed, distributor installed, or factory installed? I have seen Pioneer, Sony, and Panasonic in the LS tractors I have looked at. No rhyme or reason of what brand radio or what series tractor.

183 views and no one has upgraded their speakers? Guess I will have to remove one and measure the diameter and see how much depth there is to work with.

nvmyhd, the link is broken. But I do appreciate the advice! I'll just unscrew a speaker grill and check it out. I'm going to have to probably pop the to up anyway. I broke my antenna somehow over the weekend. Less than 20 hours and I'm reduced to two local stations.

I broke my antenna the second week I owned mine, it's make of fiberglass and is will not hold up. It's also very expensive to replace so I just bought a universal rubber mount one.

Whispering Oaks, I priced the OEM fiberglass antenna. It was almost $60. I will replace it with a "rubber duck" antenna eventually.

Did you point yours up, or keep it horizontal to the rear like the OEM antenna?

Haven't replaced my speakers yet but also broke my antenna the first week I had it. Caught a low hanging pine branch and snapped it. Fortunately it only broke the fiberglass and the wire was still attached. I put a piece of heat shrink tubing over the antenna and heated it till it shrunk down around the antenna. 8 months later it's still working. Poor location for the antenna since so many of us have broken them.

I ended up making a rubber antenna work in the original location and made a new 90 degree mount. I don't like it yet so I am still looking for a quality replacement.
