I am in the process of upgrading my car audio experience.

I am considering a 3 way system with 6.5" in the doors, and a 4" and tweeter in the dash. I am also going to do either two eights or one 10 for a sub.

The car that all this is going into is very small. As it is now the rear speakers are not even heard. Should I bother replacing and powering the rear speakers for rear fill or should I just not bother with them at all.

TIA!

yo i got an extended cab ranger......when i first got it i had 2 channels of a 4 channel wiring both my front and rear speakers wired in parallel....sucked so bad!!! when i changed stuff around so i could power the rear speakers w/ just my head unit, i never turned the speakers on! in fact, i think my rear speakers are closer to my ears than my front speakers...if not then close..

so in a similar situation, depending on what type of amplification u r goin w/, just power your front speakers and run your rears off the head unit, if u decide to run them at all...
