[QUOTE="frikkie, post: 81047, member: 845"] I don't believe in spending big money on speakers for the rear of the car, as those should be, at best, rear-fill, in a well-setup stereo system. In fact, more often than not I utilise the OEM stuff, if they're of reasonable quality and sound decent enough on their own. You do obviously get exceptions, where the OEM stuff is of such terrible quality that you are forced to upgrade, or in the case of building a full Dolby Digital or dts surround system in a car. From experience with Reno's though, I'd leave the OEM rear speakers be, and use them as rear-fill. By all means though, spend good money on replacing the OEM front stuff - they're average at best, and far more important as to the overall tonality of the system, as well as considerations like soundstage, transparency, timing etc. Then again, I'm but a car-audio amateur enthusiast - I may well be talking absolute crap! ;D :D [/QUOTE]
