    Where the roof joins the pillars, in the channel, the sealer cracks and allows water in. Lift out the roof trim, give it a clean in there and you'll probably see the crack in the sealer. often goes at the rear as well.

    If you peel back the roof cloth a bit at the top of the windscreen in the corner, you might see water or rust around the layers of metal.

    Another possibility is if the car is parked on an incline, sometimes water running through the door drips onto the speaker, the water then runs out the front of the door card and onto the floor.
