Got another compliment tonight about my door speakers. Since I ran budget, I didn't bother replacing the door speakers (plus I'm lazy :P). Demo'd my setup for a guy that bought it, and they asked if I had new speakers in my doors, and I told them that they're all stock. They were amazed. I was just running them off two channels of a cheap Dual amp, so only 50 watts RMS. Only thing I can give GM some real credit to...probably one of the many great features of the GP.

you dont turn things up at all do you...

It's loud enough for me, plus it's only on 50 watts RMS. Maybe if it's on 150 watts then we'll see a difference.Originally Posted by matt5112

Umm 90 dB @ 1 m @ 1 W speaker at 50 W at 1 m = 110.8 dB from a pair.
Thats plenty loud.
And I highly doubt the stock speakers with no excursion can reproduce even 100 Hz at that sound level.
No speaker without a fairly large voice coil can handle 150 watts RMS.

I'm not going to be putting the full 150 on 24/7. They do fine for me and sound fine, just adding power to have there as reserve. Gain will be set accordingly.

So do you understand that they will blow if they even see 50 W RMS for say 20 minutes?

When they blow, they blow lol. I've got them sloped more along the lines of 180Hz I think...probably will change that.
12-05-2010
Ouch.
You want to be playing down to 50-40 Hz in the front.

Meh, when I get some new door speakers, I'll probably set them lower & see how well the stock last.
12-05-2010
I am not understand either.
12-05-2010
Huh?

sensitivity of 90 dB at 1 m at 1 watt.
then give the speaker 50 watts and listen at 1 meter (three feet roughly) and thats 110.8 dB to your ears from a pair of speakers.
