Replacing speakers?

[04viperram]

Does replacing speakers and keeping the head unit make a big difference? Don't want anything that is gonna rattle the windows, just a better all around sound. I know the 6x9 in the doors are just for bass. Just seeing what you guys have done and how ya'll liked them.

6X9s have good bass...but they are not JUST for bass. They are a good all around speaker. In my Hemi Ram....I used Polks all the way around with Polk components in the rear doors. They improved the sound quite a bit and improved the level of bass I could use before distortion. It all depends on the quality of speaker you get. I just used the Polks based from a suggestion of a good friend. (he has been doing car audio for over 20 years) I was pleased with them. You can't go wrong with infinity or rockford fosgate either. Those two almost always sound great.

Here is a vid of what I did to my Hemi Ram...as you can see, I also put in two Polk 10" subs under the rear seats. They were mounted in a FG box I made.

Man I been out of the car audio game for a long time. Gonna be keeping the factory head unit and probably gonna go with some kickers or something, have been looking at polk too. Don't wanna spend too much money on the audio and more on the performance.:rock: Just want a little better sound! Also what about the center speaker, do they make a direct replacement for that or what do you guys recommend?

when i got my truck one front door speaker was blown...i went with kicker ks series all around...( 6x9 in the front doors ,3 1/2 on the dash and 5 1/4 on the rear doors) sounded better than stock but i gave in and changed the head unit and added component speakers and amps...sounds great now....

The Mopar Kicker speaker upgrades sound good. Although, some minor wire splicing is needed for the dash speakers (Mopar and OEM connectors are different) and for the Mopar RC sub upgrade some minor wiring is needed for that.

Sometime this summer I am going to replace my RC's Infinity speakers with Boston Acoustics. I've been told they sound pretty good with the factory amp and head units. I'm leaving the Infinity sub intact. We'll see how this goes.
