i was thinking, do i really need rear speakers? my sub would be right behind the rear seat. would the sub make up for the loss of the rear speakers? its a real small hatchback car (scion tc).
or should i get some rear speakers?
if this post shows up twice, im sorry cause i didnt see the first.
thanks

thats what im gonna do i think
question tho, i just went to double check the sizes of my speakers and it says it 6 1/2 in the front and 5 1/4 in the rear. does this sound right? i was under the impression that it was the reverse but can you take a look at this site and tell me if im reading it right?

Alot of people say this, but wait until you have passengers in the back.. or until you actually notice that they're isn't any sound coming from back there.

See, alot of people don't realize that not everybody rolls down the street bumpin' at 140+dB's

If you already have stock rear speakers, I wouldn't replace them. But I would invest in a nice, cheap pair for the rear if you have a dvd package in your ride.. otherwise if you like the surround effect, being able to hear the music all around you, I would get a pair for the back. If you like bass and loud distorted rock music, I wouldn't bother :-)

yea i doubt ill be bumpin down the road at 140+. i like to listen to rap and thats it. i was thinking maybe getting a solid pair of 6 1/2 comp up front (now that i know its 6 1/2 up front and not 5 1/4) and maybe a pair of 5 1/4 midbass speakers for the rear. would that be legit?

Do you have alot of passengers in the rear seat of your ride? If so, you might want to go with something that offers a little more high-end than a midbass.. if not then the midbass is fine for fill.

Screw the rear speakers, no fill, nothin'. If you do your front comps properly with a sub (or a couple of subs) then you will feel a solid presence of stage. Forget about the rear passengers, who cares about them, 99% of the cases they don't even know if it sounds good or if it sounds bad, screw them. You are the main listener in the car, you paid for the system, you had the pain installing and you are the one who should enjoy the fruits:-)

i agree with rear fill being NOT necessary

however u still feel u would like the option of having them there u can just get some low wattage speakers & run them off HU power

or

if u choose 2 amp them use ur fader/settings so that they get like 1/4 - 1/3max of the power u r feeding the front speakers ........

i'd still get some. i tried having no speakers in the back and it just sounded off. especially i f you ever play the musice at low or moderate levels. i'd get a good set of components for the front and some coax's for the back and give them HU power

i reccomend,
