The stock speakers tend to unload under high power. I'd say that has more to do with the "enclosure" they're in than anything else. The frame is unable to withstand the higher power movement of better speakers. It's made for inexpensive decent sound.

With these speakers there is a noticable lack in top end and mid bass performance. What can we expect from these really? If we think about it Toyota has made speakers for the bottom end offering in the entire line of vehicles...that in and of itself is decent. :P

The nice thing is that we can reuse the adaptor that houses the speakers.

It gives you some added depth that mounting straight to the door skin takes away.

The stock head unit will limit your output at higher levels. It'd better to use a nicer LOC like a ReQ that sums the inputs and gives you a level playing field to send signal to amplifiers with.

There's SO much more to say on the stock system!

I agree with you TOLMACH. The speakers aren't ABSOLUTELY horrible, but for a yaris they're sufficient. But sqcomp is slowly turning me into an auto-audiophile.

I noticed this the SECOND they turned my car on to test my new speakers. I was hearing things from songs that I completely missed before. A bit scary actually...

Simply adding tweeters to the front speakers is already quite an improment in SQ..
