in my 2007 jk x the speakers that are attached to the roll bar stink..... is this due to the radio output or the speakers themselfs. and what size are they to change them out. thank you

 

both.

stock paper cone speakers dont hit very hard.

stock radio is made to limit the sound to soundbar due to the speakers being close to the heads of passengers.

6.5s will fit.

thank you..... have you done this will it be an inprovment

 

i am in the process of gathering my system parts together.

i have the speakers from my previous car, an amp to power them, bought a new headunit from crutchfield, got an amp for the sub and now im just waiting to pick up a sub, some plug and play speaker adapters from crutchfield and some polyfill. oh and the wiring for the amps.

 

but has anyone just changed the rear speakers and would this help at all

 

i changed the rear speakers . but i also added a amp so they sound great now .

 

do you think it would do anything just to change the speakers

 

Changing only the rear speakers to a better quality speaker will help in "sound quality" only, but not in volume. THe stock head-unit limits the out-put to the rears.
I changed the rears prior to changing out the head-unit, and the sound was better, but not the volume.

6.5 inch speakers will fit. However, the stock mounting brackets use 3 mounting holes, after-market speakers normally use 4.

I put JL Audios 6.5" all the way around (components in the front position)...and it sounds superb. People are right though...change your head unit for increased volume and punch. Throwing in a dedicated amp to power JUST the speakers is also a great addition as well.
