just about any 4x6 will be very little improvement. 6x9s are where its at

Hey Pickles just curious what you had to do to put 6x9's in the back i am wanting to do this and not sure of how to go about it? Do they fit with the seat belt roller back there in the area of the 4x6? If you have pics that would be great. I am going with 5.25 component speakers in the front and replacing my factory tweeter and thinking about getting a loaded sub for under the front passenger seat. Anyone done this that you know of? I am not sure how it will fit.

Ok, so the bigger speakers did not work out the way I wanted them to. I purchased a variety of spacers and they sat out too far to put the door panel back on. I guess you could cut the space on the door panel where the speakers sit.

Hey Geo, I just wanted to let you know that when I installed my 6.5" door speakers I cut the panel to fit the speaker in, it works great and looks better in the way that you can actually see the speaker, my opinion anyway lol.
Here is how it looks.

That's awesome! what did you use to cut the panel and what type of speakers did you use

Geo, I used a dremmel tool to cut out the peice of panel it was super easy! The speakers are persicion acoustic 6.5 " if i am remembering correctly i believe they are 90 watts rms and 280 watts peak. They are pretty decent sounding, but I think i am upgrading to MTX component speakers to go with my two MTX jackhammer subs.

Here is what i did to improve the sound in my Aveo5 lt. I am putting a total of 4 in there. The borad is 40 1/4 x 10 inch x 1/2 inch thick mdf with 1x2 pine running long ways. I am going to be running a "70 watt" old school punch amp to all 4 of them off of a AVIC 930bt head unit. I will update when i can get the other 2 in and hear how they sound. I am also upgrading the doors to 5.25 inch speaker ran straight from the head unit.

I have a 2007 LS 4 door. I installed all Infinity Kappa system. 3 1/2 two way in front doors and 6 1/2 three way in back. Put a 12" sub in 2cuft box all running throu the infinity 5 amp. I'm using a Clarion HU. Talk about a crisp clean thumping sound. WOW. The sub in velcroed in the back passenger side facing the trunk, if i need room i just pull out the sub. The Amp is mounted in the trunk but above. I used heat sink compound and using the car as a heatsink. I will not use the speaker covers due to prying eyes. I keep it all stock looking.
