So, I currently have a pair of Polk Audio 6.5" speakers (shallow mount depth) in the door because I could not seem to fit anything else due to depth issues.

Mounting depth in doors vs speaker depth
So, I currently have a pair of Polk Audio 6.5" speakers (shallow mount depth) in the door because I could not seem to fit anything else due to depth issues. Is there somewhere that sells a speaker spacer so that you can fit Hertz Hi-Energy HCX 165 speakers in the doors? I could not find anything that I figured would fit well with them. Without spacers, the Hertz speaker magnet hits the metal frame of the window slide inside the door.

How deep of a spacer can we use without fitment issues?

The standard one sold by zenclosures is just on the edge of how big you can go, there is a lot of room in the rear with that spacer. What kind of speakers are you looking to install? I did a install with a set of image dynamics cxs woofers which are huge and had no problems.

Only running two speakers for now so I was looking at the Hertz HCX 165 coaxial speakers. My amp is a JL XD200/2 so I did not think I could run a component set, especially considering the amp is only 75W x 2 @ 4ohms. The coaxial HCX 165s already ask for 25W more RMS (100W RMS).
Per the dimensions of that speaker on the Hertz site, I suspect that I need the Zenclosure speaker spacer with the 5.75" center cutout.

I would run components and your amp will run them fine. Just make sure to run new speaker wire to everything. I would not waste my money on coaxial speakers. As someone else found out they can be disappointing.
door speakers
