What speakers to replace factory with TOY Entune?

[K_Watson 10+ year member]

I just got a used 2012 Corolla S with the Entune touchscreen Bluetooth Nav system.

I suspect one of the rear deck 6x9 speakers is blown.

What speaker would be a good replacement if keeping the Entune system?

I assume a speaker with low RMS requirements...

I turned sound to front only for now.

Toyota has one in stock for $180 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

But what brand / model to put in if running just the Entune headunit for now?

Get your head back there and listen to something that typically causes the sound that makes you think a speaker is blown while pressing on the panels. Listen on the trunk side as well as the interior side.

You can install aftermarket 6x9s but they will require adapter brackets and wiring pigtails to avoid cutting anything. If you're able to do the installation yourself you're looking at roughly $200 for a nice pair of 6x9 coaxials or subwoofers.

You should look into a set of 6x9 subwoofers and a small amp to power them...about 100x2 would sound nice with the factory deck...it would be a really nice upgrade ...and make your stereo much more enjoyable ...
