04 Maxima speaker upgrade question?????
I would like to upgrade the speakers in the Max [no i don't want a boom box on wheels] just want to know if the stock speakers are good quality? I would like to replace the stock ones with a good after market speaker, any ideas??The stock system is ok , but not great in my opinion..I dont want to replace the radio, just hoping to get a lot better sound by just the speakers Thanks

Also, what do you think of Rockford Fosgate Amps?

I don't think the stock headunit has RCA outs.....so make sure you get an amp that supports speaker level inputs or your will need an extra adapter

A couple more questions on this subject:
1) Is the stock amp (non-bose) a 4 channel unit? If 4 channel how are the channels split to the 8 speakers?
2) Anyone know the speaker physical dimensions? If I'm going to replace them I want to only mess with the door panels as little as possible.
3) Do you think replacing the tweeters in the A-pillars would make much difference in sound quality? I was thinking of just running those off the stock amp and replacing the door and rear deck speakers with a 2 channel amp to the deck and a 4 to the doors.
