stock speaker question

stock speaker question

anyone know how many watts the stock back and front speakers produce in a 98 corolla?

lol low ... like either 20s or low 30 watts

they can go pretty loud, I can run them with my kenwood radio perfectly.... they do crap out at the high end, nothing a highpass filter wouldn't give them more high end capability

but it's better to just upgrade them all...

there's so many good n cheap speakers and some SWEET speakers for a decent price it's a sin to just not upgrade

Agreed. I just don't care enough about my car to upgrade them. I'd rather just save my money for a new car, but I'll consider speaker upgrades if I find a killer deal on 4 new speakers.

i would say like 20w but they do sound like crap when cranked up. oh well, stock ftl! lol

ok thanks i guess i will start looking at some speakers soon. thought of doing this for awhile because i have upgraded my deck and have a sub in the back.

for those of you who have done a speaker install is it a basic install or are their any weird run ins that i should prepare for.

nothing more than cut, tie, solder, shrink wrap, and refit panels

shrink wrap?

some plastic thingy that you slip around the exposed wires
you heat it up with a heat gun or a match and it creates a seal...

or just electrical tape-it

ok i got another question are both speakers 6.5inch

the front are a bit smaller i think... if you go to crutchfield and input your car specs, it'll tell you

both pairs are 6.5

alright thanks for the help guys. planning on doing this install over x-mas break.

mburket added 7 Minutes and 29 Seconds later...

and if anyone was wondering i just went to crutchfield they gave me this

Front speakers
Front Door : 6-1/2"
Rear speakers
Rear Deck : 6-3/4"

they must have changed the speaker size from the 7th to 8th gen, my 7th gen had 6.5 rear and 5.25 up front.

the honda is baller though with 6x9 in the rear and 6.5 in the front

your right about the size up front...however the website said that a 6.5 can fit in the space that they give you.

the front speakers are 6 1/2 and rears are 6 3/4


for 2001 corolla or 8th gen perhaps

Odd... when I took out my stock front speakers, they were only 4"

I know you can fit larger ones in there

ok so i installed my new speakers this monday everytihng went smooth and i love the way my car sounds now. i have 6.5 pioneers in both the back and front doors. if anyone was wondering 6.5's do fit just fine in the front doors and the stock speaker wattage of the 98 corolla is a very weak 15.

yes they are very weak indeed .. i put 6.5's in the front and they do 150rms =) .. i put an amp to them also .. 6004 hifonics amp
