Those links you put up just take you to the crutchfield.com homepage, or some other part of the site, but do not show a product at all. At least not the one you are asking about.

I just read the specs on those speakers and they are very nice. They even have oversized cones compared to other speakers the same size. That will be a bit nicer than the standard 5.25. Not overwhelmingly better, but somewhat. I'd at least see about getting a 5.25 for the front though, a 4x6...

I didn't notice that those were 2 ohms. That's cool. Good factory replacement. And being more than the original RMS value will not affect them at all. Means that they can take a little more power, but the amp doesn't have any more to give other than what it put out before. But it won't...

OOOOHHHH, those are some nice looking speakers!

Your amp is going to put out a certain amount of power for a given volume setting on the deck. That amp was made to work with 2 ohm speakers from the factory. So at a certain volume level and 2 ohm speakers it will sound a certain way, that you were used to. Now you need new speakers and are...

Well, true to a point. Going by the law of averages though, most 4x6's are built fairly weakly. But they could have been 6x9's and still blown if they were played to the point of distortion. It's just easier to distort 4x6's.

Also, they probably blew due to being a smaller sized speaker and you(or someone else) played them louder than they should have been. A larger speaker would have handled it better most likely. Those really aren't good sizes. The 5.25's would work in the front, and the rear both if you could...

If you put new aftermarket 4 ohm speakers in place of those, then the amps would output only 1/2 of their original wattage. Twice the resistance, half the power. See how that works?? But you can run them on your factory amps, you would just do better to run them on a new amp or on the deck.

You can go higher on the RMS, it won't hurt anything. Did the factory speakers say what ohm load they are?? Most factory speakers are a higher than average ohm load, like around 8 or 10 or 12 ohms. Almost EVERY aftermarket speaker will be 4 ohms. That means that the amps would push a lot...

The 20 watts RMS is how much power they can handle continuously. The PEAK power is how much they can handle for a brief second or so, like on a hard bass note or powerful loud burst of any musical instrument for example. Whether or not you blow them again depends on how much power you are...

If you are new to this, then I would suggest sticking with simplicity until you fully understand all the ins and outs of ohms and current flow. Almost everything in car audio is based on 4 ohms. About all the speakers you will see are 4 ohms and a lot of subs are too. If you are trying to...
