Just wonderin' if any of you guys have bought any after market sail pannel subs?
They just can't take a beating.

A good 6.5" sub is made by Tang Band: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=264-832
This will blow the stock crap away, but they are not going to run with quality 10"s or 12"s
Edit: actually, probably too deep?

I think those are too deep but I'd also worry about the fact that they are 4 ohm and not very efficient. If he keeps the monsoon amp the subs will only play 1/2 as loud if using a 4 Ohm speaker and with the senstivity of 83db 1W/1m it is going to take a lot of power to drive those subs to anything above moderate volumes.

Just put in some 8" subs hooked to an amp and call it a day....lol.
I put 8" rockford fosgate stage 1's back there and they sound awesome. I'm only feeding them 50 watts right now, so when I get a bigger amp for them and dynomat behind them, they should sound even better. These will require some cutting though...

The Camaro's have a single voice coil 2ohm speaker. Really the only 2ohm in T/A's are the door speakers (woofer's) and thats it.
But sorry man, I don't know what speakers to replace them with. After messing with my Camaro's speakers too much, I am ready to replace the whole system. And when the time comes on my T/A I will do the whole system as well. Stock systems blow ***!
Peace,
Craig.

the eu's will require cutting. i.e. the surround is too big.

most people will tell you to go with stockers for now. until you plan to upgrade. but i'm a personal fan of doing 8"s.
