hey guys i just picked up a memphis 6ix and a 300 watt rockford fosgate 4 channel amp and was wondering can you amp the stock speakers safely or do i need to replace the whole speaker system? thanks!

 

It put about 30 watts to them before I took mine out. They could not handle it. Some have said that the stockies sound great with some aftermarket power, but mine did not sound great... better, for sure, but not great.

I would at least buy some cheaper components for the front if you want to use those amps. Otherwise, leave them alone. Some slightly higher powered coax for the rears might be a decent idea as well.

 

i got rockford fosgates in the front doors right now

 

I amp'd my fronts, and they handled it ok. They definately got louder, but I wasn't happy with the way they sounded. I switched them out with some MB Quarts and was much happier.

thats what I'm looking to get in the fronts and take my infinitys out and then get a 4 channel

 

ahh okay is memphis a good choice for speakers?

 

Depends on which ones. Almost every company hatches turds that they sell to the public. You know a model?

 

yea what jda123 said do u know what model of memphis you want?

 

nope no idea yet im not even sure what speakers to replace next haha

 

Front Components first. If you really care you can buy some for "rear fill" duty but some just run fronts. What's your budget?

 

My MRV-F450 Alpine sounds GREAT with stock speakers. Had it installed for about 2 weeks now with no problems yet. A LOT better than stock, thats forsure.

 

hmm for speakers 100 to 130 for a set probably i got the fosgates for 78 bbucks

 

If you are satisfied with those Fosgates, you can get some of their components on your budget. They aren't awesome, but they are better than stock. Get the T series if you get some.

There are literally dozens of choices for components in that price range, so choose well. If you go used, you can get some better stuff.

 

I just bought a set of DLS Ultimate UP6i components for my build. I'm getting excited for the rest of it to come soon too.
