[QUOTE="eriler, post: 8400867, member: 666480"] Hello, I have a headunit in my car, 4x 45W outputs. I am going to replace my two dash speakers; a couple 3,5" tweets(?), but i don't know what RMS they are and hence I am having a hard time figuring out what speakers with what RMS to buy. Here're the dash speakers i'm replacing: [URL="http://puu.sh/iiDtZ/d1cb672680.jpg"]http://puu.sh/iiDtZ/d1cb672680.jpg[/URL] [URL="http://puu.sh/iiDvp/ce63af4607.jpg"]http://puu.sh/iiDvp/ce63af4607.jpg[/URL] They're original speakers from a 2006 VW Caddy. So what RMS wattage would you guys recommend i go for that would suit my headunit's output? 25W perhaps? Also currently my dash speakers are a fair bit louder than my door speakers, at the point where i can't hear the door speakers without putting my ear to them. Is this because the door speakers are rated for much higher RMS wattage? If it becomes a problem i would consider buying new 6" door speakers to go with the dash speakers as well. Will they match well as long as they have the same RMS wattage rating? Best Regards, eriler [/QUOTE]
