Thanks. I know about mids and tweeters. My question was about the suggestion made for replacements saying that any 6.5" set will fit.

I notice that lots of 6.5" speakers are all in one.

So to replace the front speakers I want a pair that has separate tweeters, and if I want to replace the rears I should be looking at speakers that are all in one?



Speakers are all stock.

Crackling possibly means wiring issues. It would be nice to check that part of the troubleshooting.

In any case, youre correct. For fronts you need to find component speakers (separate tweeters from woofer/mid) while you need to find coaxials for the rear.
However with a good set of front components, you dont really need to replace the factory rears. ;)

Thanks for noting that!

I"ve actually heard a lot of SQ installs are now focusing exclusively on front speakers and not even bothering with sound from the back at all.

Will look into the wiring testing mentioned earlier too now.

As for the rest of the shopping list above? I never heard back from anyone. Does that sound about right? Am I missing anything there?
