I'd also like to know. Will the speakers handle full bass from the factory 500w monsoon without blowing?

I didn't see faq on that site either

the speakers are a definite upgrade from the stock subs in the sail panels. The bazooka's (the best choice for subs IMO) will easily handle the full bass of the factory amp. The Bazooka's are noticeably beefier and sound much better. They will fit in the factory hole without any need for modification, other than new holes need to be drilled in to secure them. I had Bazooka's in mine for about a week and they sounded great. I removed them and ended up going with a sub in the trunk and placing full-range coaxials in the sail panels instead of the subs.

sorry guys i got this one, you need infinity kappas. excellent speakers. i have the 6 1/2's in the kick panels up front, 5x7's in the sail and 6x9's in the rear hatch. and 2 12'' kickers in the trunk. but really no one needs this much it just looks good. you go with the 6 1/2's in the kick panels and 5x7's in the sail with a 600 watt four channel and you'll think your at a live concert. super crisp.

Why would you put 5x7's in the sails? Def do not do that, put either a 6.5 or 7. And 6x9's in the back is just ghetto, sorry.

Default Looking to upgrade "rear seat side panel" SPEAKERS

Looking to upgrade "rear seat side panel" SPEAKERS


The factory ones cant handle the bass from my Head unit. (Pioneer Premier DEH-P980BT)
The one is ready to blow. Especially when I put it on BBE or LOUD setting.

I know they are 6.5's. They just put out the mid sounds, correct?

Any recommendations? Something that can handle bass.
