So, I recently bought some 6.5 inch coaxials for the front as well as some 6x9s for the rear. I currently have the base radio with an upgraded HU. My question was, when I replace the front speakers can I replace the door speakers and keep the stock tweeters as well? I want to make sure that the new speakers will play as their supposed to and have the tweeters in the sail pods playing as well. If anyone knows if this will work I would appreciate the input. Thank You.

 

Depends on the year of the car, I'm only familiar with the series 1s, but AFAIK, there is no real crossover, just a capacitor at the tweeter, so they should all play. I haven't done this mod on this car so going based on what I know. I don't promise it will sound good though, do you need that much treble? It might wash out the staging. I'm curious now, actually.

 

I have a white 05. I can always play with the EQ and the levels. The speakers I got are going to supply my mids very well, Im also installing a 10" Skar audio sub with about 800 watts to it. I just figured since they are there I would like to use them and get the better directional sound out of them. Hopefully it all comes out well.

 

To update, I got all the speakers replaced. the factory tweeters do still play. They are pretty minimal with their input but I like that they are there.
