    Default VT speaker setup Question

    System to do into a vt ss commodore sedan 2000 model
    I only have a kenwood head unit at the momment,
    Im thinking of putting some Polk DB 6501 front door speakers in as they sounds really great.
    But im not sure on what to do for the rear was thinking of eaither putting other polk speakers in the rear doors or going polk 6x9s in the parcel self
    Open for any in-put please
    Might go a sub but for now just want a great sound
    Real cars don't power the front wheels, they lift them

    If you're not going for a sub, then 6x9's. If you are going to have a sub, just 6-6.5" will do.

    Leave the rear empty. Trust me on this, you feed 125wrms into those speakers it will be more than enough in the volume department. I have the Polk MMC-6500 with is the same power rating, and up full its damn loud.

    Just the door speakers definatly, I got splits in the front and just some two ways in the rears. I had 6x9's previously, but yeah the 6 inch setup sounds much cleaner.
