Newbie speaker help
Sunday, August 20, 2006 6:41 AM
Just got a 2005 Sunfire and it came with blown out speakers. I've put in head units with no problem but never speakers. What the heck sizes do I need?? I'm seeing I need 4x6 up front and 6 1/2s in the back, but also have seen I need components. Need help! I want to make it an EASY install too.

4x6" front, 6x9" rears. You dont need components, the extra tweeter in the door panal is seperate. It can stay there with no issues.

If you want an upgrade however, Id look into 6.5" speakers for the front doors. Not hard to do, maybe an extra 45 mins of work.

Speakers are like childs play compared to wiring up a HU. Def go with the 6.5 comps upfront.


GIT 'ER DONE!

05cav, I was gonna go for it but I'm still a little unsure about it since this will be my first speaker install.....BUT I got a cheap pair of 4x6s I can sell to my neighbor so if all goes well I'll step up my game after a few months!........Anyway, here is what I got (keep in mind, small budget here):

Just remember, With such low powered speakers, that you dont jack up the bass, or amp them. There not gonna take that too well.

Thanks for the advice. I just hope they have at least a lil bump to them. I'm going for a new job so hopefully I'll land that and start to enjoy my new Sunfire the right way!
