Hi, im swapping out all my speakers and bought 6x9s for the rears.
every website that configures speaker sizes per car says i have 6x9s
but some posts i saw say its 6.25!

I have a 2005 Acura TL Base with no Navi

please help my install is tomorrow!

 

Are you replacing the amp as well? If not, bear in mind that the stock speakers in the TL are 2ohm. If you have 4ohm speakers they will likely sound quite a bit quieter. They are not 6X9. 6.25 is correct, same size as the door speakers. What about the sub? If you're replacing that, also remember that it's an 8" free air sub, meaning putting in a different type will mean customizing a box for it (if it's in the stock location.)

This should answer a lot of your questions, it's a link to the FAQ's. You should have looked there first I guess.

i swapped the 6x9s for 6.25s. Yeah i checked that link afterwards. I am running Hertz High Energy all around with a PDX F4 and Audison Bit Ten D. so didnt want to mess it. thanks again for the info!

 

Most of us don't run rears because they take away from the front stage. The money is better spent on a better front stage. It's also very easy to run 8" or 9" speakers in the front doors which dramatically improves midbass and overall sound quality.

If anything I would have put the 6x9s in the doors and the 6.5s in the rear. Those Hertz are decent speakers at least. With the 9s in the doors I can literally turn the subs off and have much better bass than the factory sub will put out.

What's the goal with this system?

 

What brand of 8" inch speaker would you suggest? And what amp should I use with them?
