upgrading speakers

[brendanh]

just got a couple of questions with installing some speakers in to my VE ss.

what sort of ohm rating should i be looking at? how mnay watt rms can the standard headdeck unit put out?

 

[The X Man]

If your not running an amp choose some 4ohm units with a high efficiency rating. Stock headunits put out around 7 Watts RMS per channel, piddly stuff.

 

[brendanh]

is there an aftermarket option, somthing like what the ssv has?

 

[dcBear]

There's thousands of aftermarket options from $10 Supercheap jobbies to multiple thousand dollar high end speakers. You might need to specify a goal and budget? Nobody in their right mind would actually upgrade to the SSV stuff. If you are going to put in the time, effort and money you would actually do it properly. Don't get me wrong SSV would sound better than base model stuff. But is easily surpassed in quality for equivalent dollars spent.
