Deciding on door speakers


Recommended Posts

I drive an 03 Dodge Durango and am looking to replace the stock speakers. I read their 6.5 all around, going to make sure of it tomorrow. Would it be better to get a 2-3 way speaker or a full range. I thought if i get full range and just install tweeters somewhere itll be fine. Looking for answers with some credibility rather than just googling all day, so here I am.

Was going to run around 100w rms to each speaker by an external amp so looking for some good quality speakers. Let me know some suggestions while i continue to look around. All help appreciated. Thanks

Little update, been lookin around at the Alpine, still debatin component or full range, dont think i want the hassle of cutting the door to install a tweeter in my door even tho it would help out the sound so probably gonna go with full range. Anyone have experience with the alpine type r components? or have any other suggestions. Thinking about running them off the Sundown 100.4.

Looking to buy these within the next couple weeks after I get a new head unit, Anyone use Alpine for mids/highs or is there a better brand. Looking for good sq on the door speakers potentially gettin 2x 15s in the future assuming everything goes alright so need these to be able to keep up with around 2k rms from the subs

I the old model type s 6X9's and they keep up pretty with my 18's so I think the type-r's should do just fine.

I want some components or maybe even full range if cheap. That have real good SQ, I've heard Infinity Kappa's are nice and I know RF gets mass support here. Was going to give them around 100wRMS so they should have plenty of power. Just need to find some good midbass to go with around 2000w RMS from the subs

My friend has two 5.25" rockford components and tweeters in each door and they sound so freaking good its just amazing. I STRONGLY recommend them to you. Those speakers keep up with his 4 12" T2's and it is the loudest and cleanest sounding system I have heard so far.

That's an awesome set up. Do you know which components it is exactly?
