Customers are mixed about the fit of the speakers. Some mention that it fits perfectly and works as expected, while others say that it doesn't fit a Jeep TJ front speaker location, looks good but is a little too large, and the rear of the sheet metal doesn''t quite fit right into the opening in the box. The frame is just slightly bigger, but they were able to place a foam shim under the speaker. The speaker is too deep to fit into the frame of the dash, and has a negative lead that's half the size.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
That's what happened here. For a mere 15 bucks or so I now have effectively a new BA 790 speaker system (which I LOVE!). As others have mentioned, there are a couple bumps in the road with this specific replacement:
1. The rear of the sheet metal doesn't fit quite right into the opening in the box. Not really a problem, just center the speaker and tighten the four screws incrementally to pull it down into circumferential contact.
2. The terminal on the (-) wire is wider than the push-on connector that's in the box. I used a small diagonal cutter to trim the terminal, then it slid on on easily.
3. If this is the first time you've opened your BA-790, you'll probably find that the wires seem too short to allow access. The solution to this for me was to remove the cover plate and push the grommet through, thus giving ample slack to the wire. Open yours, you'll see what I mean.
The sound is great once again, no more shattered bass, clean but rich. Totally worth it. I have a couple other BA-790s in the house, I'll buy two more speakers so I'll be ready once they fail, which they undoubtedly will.
BTW for those who are not familiar with the BA-790, it is a 3-speaker system designed for computers but works really well with TVs. Unlike some of the boom-makers that are currently on the market, this system is well balanced with excellent treble and bass definition. If you can find a used one on Ebay, buy it, and replace your woofer when it needs it.
Update: Nov. 2021. Woofer lasted for about 5 months and I blew it out. Upgraded to the Dayton 5.25 and that one is still running strong at 2+ years.
