Hello everyone, my name is Mike. I am 18 years old and a current student at BCC (Broward Community College). I have had my TL for about two months now and I love it. I have a Silver/Black, AT, and Nav. I wanted it in 6spd but unfortunately they didn't have any available. I didn't do any major upgrades to the TL yet except for tinting the windows, and putting in my JL 12w3 and 400w AMP. The system sounds great, but I would like to change the speakers, I feel I dont get enough highs or mids. If you guys can suggest some speakers that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

Get some 6 1/2 inch speakers, whatever brand you like, I prefer Kicker brand but theres lots of others, and some 1 inch tweeters would be nice and maybe replace the center speaker as well.

Welcome to the Forum, and enjoy your TL.

I have moved this thread to the Bluetooth/Navi/Audio/Video subforum, where it can get the specialized attention you deserve.

I have an 04 NBP TL 6mt

What size are all the speakers in the car?

I thought the fronts and rears are 6.5? Are these component? Center is 3.5? and 1" Tweets?

I am looking first to either add a separate mono amp( JL RMS 250/1) and 1 Sealed JL 12" sub (12W3V2)

OR

Replace all the speakers.
Noob question-----> What channel amp would best suit this need?
And what speakers do any of you recommend? Component 6.5"?? or no? JL is my 1st choice.
Do I have to replace ALL the interior speakers? Sub also?
Or can I get away with PIECING it together?
Will just replacing speakers be enough WITHOUT an external amp?

I'm not looking to go BONKERS with the stereo. I just want a little more. I welcome any and all advice for this minor quest.

Has anyone done either of these minor mods?

Thanks so much in advance.
