[QUOTE="Jake95, post: 2446870, member: 569876"] So, i have 4" pioneers and other 6.5" speakers running off my head unit. The 6.5 sound fine, but when the volume is turned up, the fronts sound really bad. they have a low power handling, and i want to get new speakers. So my options in my mind are to get new 4" speakers although there are not many options, or cut a 5.25" hole for 5 1/4" speakers. The problem is taht i cant go bigger than that, but "should" be able to get 5.25" in a new drilled hole. The only problem is that the front speakers arent in a door panel, but just a speaker grill that has a diameter of 6". This is why i believe that i can cut a 5.25 hole. The thing is that i need some leeway so taht the 6" grill can fit. My main question is that if this is all worth it to get some 5.25 in speakers off the HU, or if i should just get some new 4" speakers to run. I need some nice clear and loud speakers to put in, but i dont have enought money to upgrade to an amp. i would like some possitive output on what to do, and not to get a new amp... This might be in the far future, but not now. I will post some pics shortly of what my front situation looks like. Its a little hard to deal with, but it should be fun, and i'd like some experienced output. thanks a million in advance [/QUOTE]
