So I am planning to buy a cheap pair of Speakers obviously better then the stock ones. As a new car enthusiast I was wondering keeping the stock head unit because I have a Bluetooth capability mod, I was wondering if the new speakers would be okay with the stock headunit. Like will the new speakers still be able to play loud and clearer then the stock? Because I have no idea how to wire an amp for door speakers thanks!

These are the speakers I’m after so if someone can answer “yes they will sound a lot better but not be able to reach max power with stock head unit” let me know thank you !

They aren't splits. Just a tweeter and a 6" speaker.

OP, the tweeter is mounter up in the corner of the crash pad near the windscreen. That little panel with the grate on it.

Yes, best to get a split system.

I love the JBL GTO series. I run these off a stock head unit and love the sound. Clearly these speakers have way more potential with an amp as well, but as is, I'm more than happy. Sounds better than my previous Pioneer set up in my VP (that had 6x9's behind seat, 6" splits in the doors, twin amps as well Pioneer headunit and an old skool stacker. Custom centre console bin also house iPod connectivity (flash for 2005.))

For the extra $50 on the ones you are currently looking at, you'd kick yourself not to go better than the Kenwood.

Kicker also do great speakers.

6x9 are old school they are conceded junk these days, I had 7x10 Kenwood's once with a amp hooked up to them still cant beat 2 8inch subs and the 6.5 in the door, front I run now are pioneer splits, back just 6.5 2ways with the 2x 8" soundstream open air subs which I mounted on top of the carpet.
Your splits I would just leave them there and attach the pods so they are directed at you, 6.5 fit in the 6" enclosure no probs. His the pair I have and sound gr8.

Up too you of cause get the component either with the cross over box or without up to you but remember the cross over box will have to go behind your kickboards don't put them in the door, component don't have the cross over they are built like a 2 way speaker but split apart from each other to give you a better sound, I put mine up top of the door card in its pod in the corners so the point at you. All the best with it.
