So, recently finished up an install of Infiniti Primus 693M's with MB Quart adapters in my soundbar along with Infiniti REF 307F's in the dash. These 6x9's have a good sensitivity rating (93db) and relatively low power handling (60W RMS).

I get it the stock 7" head unit is under powered for the 6x9's. But, in my opinion they should sound way, way better. The bass and mids are abysmal.

I'm thinking the sound bar is just too small of an enclosure for 6x9's. I really wish I would've just done some 4 inchers and 3.5's in the bar.

The 3.5's up front sound pretty good but also like they might explode out of the dash at any moment. Have some bass blockers on order for those. Also have an HS10 from trail seven being delivered soon. I'm sure that will "round out" the system and everything will be fine. But was really expecting more from the 6x9's to fill out the mids on this system.

Long story short, I don't think it is worth the time and effort to install 6x9's in the soundbar. Now, that is what I'm stuck with.
I replaced the dash and roll bar speakers with the ones pictured without an amp.
The dash speakers made a big difference, the roll bar speakers were better but I think an amp would help them so I bought the Infinity amp. but have yet to install it.
