    I'm ready to upgrade my speakers in my 08 DC. I installed a Eclipse AVN 5510 last month and I'm not sure of what size and kind of speakers to install.

    Front 6.5 or 6x9 Any help would be great.


    THANKS

    components up front will sound much better than 6x9. Many people preper the IDQ 6.5 seps. with included crossovers. look for mr marve. he'll get you straightened out. I have been in touch with him for 3 years since i bought my taco.
    good luck. there is a ton of info out there if you search.

    Toytec ultimate lift kit, light racing UCAs, ARB bumper and full skid plates underneath. Looking into redoing the suspension and maybe repainting the ol' Taco.
    I prefer the sound of 6.5" components... but your preference might not be the same. Go to car audio shops as take a listen to different speakers. See what you really like.

    I like the Pioneer Premier components that I have now. Dollar for dollar, I think they are a great buy. I also really like Infinity Reference and Kappa for the price.
