When I special-ordered my new Jeep Grand Cherokee over 22 years ago it included the factory Infinity Gold sound system. There were component speakers in the front doors and tweeters in the dash, plus full range speakers in the rear doors.
The premium models also got a sound bar above the rear of the cargo area. I added that Mopar part, w/ a pair of component speakers.
When the suspension on my door speakers crumbled, I decided to eliminate speakers in the rear doors and just go w/ the Infinity Kappa 60.11cs component speakers in the front doors / dash and the same in the sound bar.
This leaves two wired-up 6-1/2" rear door speaker locations unused.
My thought / question / potential plan is to put a single JL Audio 6W3v3-4 6.5" 4-ohm speaker in the right rear door, driven by a mono amplifier.
The speaker will fit, with the window up. But the rear door windows were designed w/ partial opening, to leave some glass protruding when fully opened. If I put the sub woofer into that speaker location, then the window will open less.
My vehicle will not have a sub box, or anything else visible from the interior, so this is the only possible sub woofer location for me.
All that being said, will this sound good and what can I do to make it sound as good as possible?
