07. stock speakers rule!

[tarkus]

I put a pair of 6.5-inch coaxial Clarion speakers into the doors of my 2007 Yaris and they really kick butt. Much louder, with punchy mids, big bass and great definition at the top end. They sound huge compared to the stock ones, and we're quite inexpensive off eBay, where I also got the mounting flanges and shower wires from. And I don't feel any need for a sub now.

In my previous 2004 Echo (1st gen Yaris) I changed the dashboard speakers with a 4-inch coaxial Pioneer pair off eBay. Again, a big improvement in sound, although not quite as massive as with changing the door speakers.

The stock Yaris/Echo speakers are the most crappy POS speakers I have ever come across, and as an electronics engineer I've seen just about every kind of speaker there is. The door speakers especially. Apart from the soft paper cone which deteriorates over time, what passes for the magnet looks like it's made of aluminum, and is too weak to even pick up a paper clip. It's almost surprising it makes any sound at all. You don't need to pay big bucks to replace it with something that sounds 100 times better.

hahaha! I have a set of Focal K2 Power 165 KF new in the box that have been sitting around since 2007. (car toys 20th anniversary) they are 6.5's. when I bought them, I had a civic, so they would not fit. I guess I could put them in the yaris...

where is a good spot to mount the tweeters? I've seen them in the door cards near window actuators, but the angle seems garbage. the a pillars have airbags, so they can't go there...

Mount your tweeters on top of the dashboard, towards the windshield. They will sound good there.

It also makes for simpler wiring back to the head unit.
