I tried searching but couldnt really find anything because the search tool and google arent the best. I did see somewhere that you cant just swap speakers out because of the stock 2ohm speakers.

Im looking to replace the 6.5" and 6x9s in back. Looking for something with good bass.

Probably looking to get an amp, any suggestions on amps or speakers. Also how would i wire this amp up. From the headunit to the amp then from the amp to the speakers? thanks everyone

I replaced my front 6.5" got a mounting support from best buy 9.99$ shipped and it fits right in.

The speakers are amazing for bass my whole door shakes and mirrors as well and they're not even amped haha I'll upgrade the back ones soon as well

Forgot to say I got Kenwood Speakers for the front about 80 RMS. Max of 250 Watt or 300 I don't remember for peak power. They're amazing. It's a great upgrade.

are you using an amp?

and for choosing an amp, most likely 4 channel and want to look at the watts per channel right?

i went the rockford fosgate route and havent regretted it. gotten lots of compliments that it sounds really good and clear. idk.

if i buy a component system, where do you guys suggest mounting/ how to mount tweeters. i have manual mirrors so theres no spot really for stock

Kenwood KFC-X1730P (KFCX1730P) 6-1/2" 2-Way Component Speaker

are you doing an amp? also kenwood doesnt = bass but whateva

FatSam2010

I was always under the impression that if you cant have tweeters then you want 3 way? Idk anything about audio though so..

FatSam2010

Just kidding, just realized it was a component system, ill carry on being stupid elsewhere!

yea i wanna look at the speakers at a store or something to see how they sound

also here is the amp i was looking at

Rockford Fosgate R600-4D (R6004D) 600W 4-Chan Class D Prime Amp

kenwood speakers can be pretty good just they arent really bassy. honestly most aftermarket are going to be worse than stock bass wise so thats why i suggested hertz.


reason i was asking about the amp is because if you do a comp set you really should have an amp. not necessary but a really good idea

well i dont have the pioneer system and stuck with the base model everything. im trying to find the hertz speakers but having trouble finding them online. ill keep looking

edit: just found the hertz on their website. energy system ESK 165.5

anyone have ideas on fitment? would they fit behind the door panel or would i have to cut the plastic out for them to poke thru a littl

I guess what am i asking is if i had a speaker that was too deep. could i do that or has anyone done that

EmperorJJ1

iTrader: (5)

i wouldnt worry about fitment too much. you will have a hard time finding a speaker thats too deep to fit in the stock location. assuming that you do you can add a spacer and still fit under the factory door panel just fine.

only issue you may run into is if you buy a 6.5 thats not a true 6.5 and instead a 6"... the smaller diameter might be a bitch but still not the end of the world

i would have to use a Line out Converter if using the stock head unit correct? will that sound like **** if i use one?

I run a loc for my subs, still sounds great but most cheap amps have a high level input, just run your stock wires to there and you're done. Honestly you should also reconsider, the Fosgate Prime series is crap, their punch and power series are great though, get a PBR300x4 and you will be happy.
