Ok, i just installed some new speakers in my 01. They were some pioneer A6971Rs. They are in, and they work, but they are very quiet. I was wondering if i did somethign wrong with the install, if that may be just the way the speakers are.
I was wondering if it has to do with power output to the speakers. I'm currently using the stock CD player, and these speakers will take 300w. Will they work better when i get a new cd player? or should i look at a small amp for them?

I got the same speakers (only in 6 1/2's) and they are very quiet as well and they are wired correctly. I have an aftermarket HU as well. I think we both need an amp.

Well Prolly ur speaker is more watts than ur Oem deck.. or U can use volt tester to find out.it coz U $5 for the kit..Plan B U might need amps for better sound..gud luck dude..

yep to both of you. i put in some infinity reference 6012's and had to adjust the fade to make the front and rear level and i'm running an aftermarket HU with 52x4 output. almost any aftermarket speaker will sound weak unless you amp them.

Given the specs I gave you in the sub box post for my after market HU and the specs for my speakers (my 6 1/2 are only 220W though) any good recmmendations on a decent amp that won't break the bank? I'm looking for better sound, not an award winning sound system.
