I had a good feeling the stock speakers weren't going to last. However, I have the bass booster on the head unit on 0 and the sound is relatively low because I'm afraid I might blow out the new speakers. The RMS on the new speakers looks like it's in range of the headunit even at its peak but I was curious if I had any room to turn up the sound a little without fear of blowing the speakers? Thanks! |
