I’ve replaced mine and others OEM speakers a lot and you can tell a difference even without an amp. Where you notice the biggest difference is when you get rid of the entire factory system and run aftermarket head unit and amps. The sound quality of a good aftermarket system is so much better but it needs to be setup and tuned correctly.

A little known secret from before the days of dedicated subwoofers, is that when speakers face each other, for example, in the doors, you have a slight increase of base response. I’ve known this since 1974. This makes it critical that you install them very solidly to the inner metal door skin if possible.

Ай бұрын

Having phase reverse on the sub control is a MUST, it makes all the difference.

The best thing when considering only updating the speakers, is its best to not buy super high end, high power door and rear speakers. Buy lower powered ones that will be driven better by a factory (or non) unit. I installed a recent JVC unit and some brand name, but lower power speakers in my car, and have a discerning ear. Those 30-75 watt handling speaker's are driven perfectly with the head unit. If i went with 100-150, higher end components, it would not have sounded very good.

I really like watching you talk to your installer Brian, who is new to this. It really adds a different element that the solo-high end videos you produce don’t have. The way you describe the process (probably subconscious) is really unique versus your traditional videos. I think you should do a playlist/low intensity series, with you training Brian. Walk us noobs through the process with Brian. I no doubt believe this would benefit the car audio community (at entry level). A different/welcomed twist.

I upgraded the factory speakers on my renault megane, the sound quality and volume was better since the aftermarket speakers had higher sensitivity, but they had some distortion from the twitters, which forced me to install an amplifier, now it sounds great

Wow! The difference between the silence after the speaker upgrade and the sound of the OEM speakers that we didn’t hear was simply unbelievable! 👏 Cant wait to not hear the differences an amp and a subwoofer additions will make. 🙏

The guest was great! Love to see another guy in the video. Please have more guests. That guy is just a fun time!

Crutchfield is legendary.

2021 Volvo. I upgraded the speakers from HPA to Bowers and Wilkens. Marked improvement. Adding a sub amp sealed the deal. Quite pleased.

I’m impressed with the results. I was always adding amps and maybe I didn’t need them. Especially with these better install techniques. 😊

With aftermarket speakers, I’ve noticed mids and highs are vastly improved but bass drops off. Adding even a small sub fixes all of that. I had JL Audio C5 components that I left in the car on trade in (couldn’t find the factory speakers I removed) and listened to it on the factory head unit. Amazing. Just not as loud as with an amp.

U can get some aftermarkets that have a high impedence.. or are like 2-3 ohm with high impedence.. those are good dropin replacements.... but then when u want to amplify they might fall short a bit.. but u can get great sound from less watts..

thats a mighty resource to have ,,, a shared site showing tips and tricks for door stripping .

Doing exactly this in a 2022 NX Tucson mid spec with the base level stereo made a huuuuuge difference. I noticed the car had bare metal opposite the door woofer positions, so sound deadening alone no doubt helped tremendously. I used 93db sensitivity JBL SQ speakers, and the high sensitivity on factory head power is astonishingly better already. Super bright top end, and the mid bass is endlessly impressive. So good I've suggested on our local Hyundai group this is a highly recommended upgrade in itself. I'm going the whole hog with a sub and DSP and amps, but the speaker swap alone was a lot better than even I expected. The Hyundai speakers were as cheap as they come, so that's obviously a big factor.

@CarAudioFabrication I love you for listening to Subtronics and REZZ. You're unironically the GOAT for that. They're my favorite DJs

The stock speaker from Elantra seems pretty hefty! Some car come with worse speaker at stock, and aftermarket speaker really does add a lot.

quality info presented in the video, but please introduce some audio samples. try to add a before/after comparison on at least a single test track - 10-20 seconds long - not much. just to have an idea. judging an upgrade by someone reaction is not relevant at all.

Just upgradingvthe speakers in an E/F series BMW makes a great difference on the E63. The factory setup on them are slightly different in that only the underseats have amplification. The left the door and rear shelf speakers powered of the head unit. Next step is wire up the Rainbow Ipaul to the comps underseats. That should improve it some more.

I love your installation, but I'd love this even more if you used some royalty-free music (or did a less-than-30-second playback that is totally legal within copyright laws) of select tracks to show the difference in an article like this. You definitely show some great quality installation. I might do a follow-up article on what to look for in speakers if you're not ready to upgrade your amp yet (e.g., sensitivity, other qualities that can make upgraded speakers good without a replacement amp, or until such time as you can afford one).

You cannot hear the difference because you are listening to YOUR speakers that you are playing the video on. I've been down this road before. I'll evaluate a subwoofer, then play the sound on video and I'll have geniuses telling me "that sucks! There's no bass!" But it's because they are listening on their iPhone. Also, unless I clip the microphone to oblivion then the assumption is "it's not loud". Unfortunately we live in an age where everyone is a critic and no one can ever be positive about anything and I'm simply over being ragged on for sharing knowledge and enjoying a hobby. So I'll pass.

With a little effort, I have often been able to repurpose the OEM speaker frame (after removing the old speaker cone and plastic frame) as an adapter for the aftermarket speaker.

This was a good video.

Love Subtronics and Rezz!

Greetings from Brazil and congratulations on the excellent content! I recently purchased a Toyota Corolla Cross and would like to improve its sound system, especially in the bass region.

Hey Mark. Long time follower. I would love to see you use some resonix products in your builds. They are too dawg products and a huge game changer

I tossed the factory speakers in my 2017 F150 Platinum. Opted for Kicker replacements. Massive difference with the stock Sony system. Then I tossed the factory “sub” and added a Kicker Hideaway sub under the rear seat, and it took it to a different level. I was surprised at the thin gauge of the wires, which has to make a difference. I may end up retiring it with 16ga. I’d like your thoughts on that.

cant u just run 4 ohm speakers (that are a bit better build/heavier) they would probably be fine.. would be worse if ur car had a 2 ohm system.. like these 8 ohm speakers are probably 10-20 watts.. if u get 100 watts rms 4 ohm speakers ur never going to blow those up.. and if u do its just the headunit..

It's a relative change that doesn't always cause any improvement at all. I have tested this before and it all depends on how good the speakers are relative to the head unit in the first place. If you have a decent source but rubbish speakers, yes it will make a big difference. If you have a decent source but your speakers are already decent, it will make no obvious difference, particularly at low volumes. Best way to get an idea is to research the power output of the source head unit and get one of the speakers out and see what it's rated at. If the radio outputs 30w but the speakers are only 5w, there is a good chance it will make a significant difference but if the radio only outputs 15w and the speakers are already 20w, the speakers wont make any difference because the head unit cant provide any more even if the speakers can handle more going to them.

Great video. Quetsion: can you tell me if most OEM door speakers (Mazda 3 2016 specifically) are 2 ohms or 4 ohms? I am asking because if I just swap them for any aftermarket 4 ohm speaker, it will pull half tha wattage from the factory unit and will sound lower. If this is true, can I just add a 4 ohm resistor in parallel to the 2 conectors in the speaker to drop the 4 ohms down to 2 ohms? Thank you!

Trust me people speaker adapters are usually important and needed alot more than you realize, and as an example i had a set of 5 .25 kicker cs series speakers for a project truck i didn't end up getting along with a factory replacement stereo for the same vehicle but not one that particular vehicle was ever offered with, and the truck i did end up with the kicker cs series speakers would fit in the rear door speakers location but the front door speakers are different size, and they cost more than the same as the rear speakers for the matching series of cerwin vega hed r series 3 way 6x9's i end up getting and installed in the front door speakers locations in the truck it is a 2000 dodge ram laramie slt quad cab, and the magnet structure on the back of the speakers doesn't allow the power windows down more than about halfway, so they would need to be spaced out away from the front doors they have really decent bass response and sound great honestly but id about guess that the kicker cs series 6x9's i didn't get would have fit just fine with no adapter plate to space them out from the door needed, but i already have the complete set of cerwin vega hed r series door speakers... And I have even considered adding a dual electronics xpr82d amplifier for the right side and left side speakers probably a better setup than dodge used originally and splicing it into the rear doors, but it honestly doesn't need it i did end up changing the head unit to a 20005 pioneer deh model p3700mp mp3 CD player super tuner III D stereo and it sounds awesome with just the front speakers installed unfortunately though it is only halfway installed because i have managed to lose my install cage sleeve for mounting the stereo in the dash so I guess ill end up getting a used stereo around the same years as when they came out with the super tuner III D stereos because it honestly makes more sense to me to do that and have a good backup or a useable head unit for something else,than to spend the $25 online and only buy a cage sleeve.

@FirstMotorMerriment-rm8vz

AFAIK the problem with cheaper plastic adapters is they are flimsy, meaning the sound the speaker makes is lost as the mounting adapter vibrates with it, causing the energy the speaker should be pushing into the air to be reduced, wood adapters are just sturdier and less prone to shaking as the speaker works.

Off the shelf brackets can tend to be more flexible and not as rigid, some are worse than others. When you custom make adapters you can control the quality. Doors are very prone to moisture, you definitely want to use a more stable material like ABS, acrylic, or HDPE.

I installed one of the cheapest Pioneer touch screen head units available with Apple Car Play (MVH-2300NEX) and a set of Alpine type S 6.5" 2 way speakers (SPS-610). I added Noico mat to the whole interior (russian made version of dynamat) and made an aluminum adapter plate for the rear doors, so I could replace all the original 5.25" speakers with the 6.5's. It went from being absolute crap, to blowing my previous Altima's Bose system out of the water. A sub would have brought it to the next level, but it really did sound great for daily driving.

Every vehicle I've done a straight aftermarket speaker swap on hasn't sounded as good as stock. Putting a good 2 channel on stock speakers nets much better results imo.

To be completely honest, just adding in tweeters if you have none, or replacing the tweeters with aftermarket ones makes the biggest difference. An aftermarket radio with stock speakers is going to sound way better than aftermarket speakers powered by a stock radio. Best way to power aftermarket speakers is a powerful aftermarket head unit or better yet, a 4 channel amp in something like 50-100x4 RMS per channel.

I put hertz components in my honda car with a aftermarket deck and the tweeters blew after 6 months and i was told it was because they were being underpowered by the deck and i needed to use a amp on them. So basically never use higher quality component speakers if they are being underpowered. Maybe if my car had a stock amp it would have been less bad. Main thing is the rms of speaker and amp should be close if not higher on the amp side.

Do you happen to sell 3d printed pannels?

If you are running an audio shop, not it's not enough to just replace the speakers. (That's a business aspect). For normal people its perfect. Easier, cheaper, and so on.
