[QUOTE="bigblank69, post: 8619748, member: 571469"] What I am saying is factory speakers are able to take low frequencies from the HU in stride and not have a problem. Assuming the user doesn't crank the deck to where its distorted thru the entire signal band. Car manufacturers (And since I work in this industry from a fairly high level I do have insight into this) design every item to handle certain loads in order to avoid warranty costs. I.E If your door speakers couldn't handle the frequencies the deck put out, we as Auto manufacturers would be warrantying them left and right and we don't like warranty costs. Also sometimes the automaker will install a passive crossover into the speaker itself. For example my Toyota pickup came with factory 3.5" Dash Speakers, 6x8 Door speakers in the front and 6.5 Door Speakers in the rear. The front speakers were actually wired into a small crossover on the 3.5 speaker that cut the bass to 3.5 full range, and cut the highs to 6x8. So again, the OP should have little concern as to having a HPF to the factory speakers off the factory deck. He may not like the intermingling of sound from the subs to door speakers, but the speakers themselves will be just fine. [/QUOTE]
