I killed my rear speakers

[DBishop72]

Hey all, My old habits still kick in when i put on 80s hair rock, volume goes all the way up. Poor rear speakers didn't stand a chance. I've looked at what's out there and i'm not impressed. I miss the old days of adding and amp and 6x9s and calling it a day. Does anyone out there have a killer stereo system?

Do you have the Alpine system or the basic stereo? My recommendation will depend on that.

I saw it, i prefer to have the under seat storage. But thanks!

I'm partial to the Infinity Reference series.
These will fit with some work

They're rated at 90w at 3 ohm for the tweeter and woofer. IIRC the Alpine system is 45w at 2 ohm for the tweeter and woofer each. So it *should* be within the factory amp's rating.
You'd cut out the crossover included with them as well since the factory amp already handles that for the soundbar channels.
I do agree though, the old days of adding an amp and 6x9s and calling it a day were much nicer.

Those are nice, easy install too. Glad my birthday is coming up! Thanks!!

Actually Crutchfield looks to have quite a few options depending how much your willing to spend.

They always have…

I’ve used the Crutchfield kits and adapters in the past… always been a good fit.

Watch this on a possible location: BTW. I have a Kenwood powered sub mounted on the back panel between the seats. Std Radio and 75w Kenwood Marine Amp under the drivers seat. Sound bar speakers are Kenwood 5" 2 way (cut to fit the OEM opening and 2 way tweeters in the dash top).

I put the Infinity Reference 3 1/2 in the dash and the 6 1/2 components in the sound bar. Huge improvement in quality and easy to do.
