I'm assuming this means you have a 4 door?

Pretty much ANY round speaker will out perform a 6x9 for bass output... The Type-S 6.5s I have sound pretty good in my bosses truck, and that's running off the internal deck amplifier... Which is a Sony.

The more experienced car audio guys should be along shortly...

a 6.5" speaker will not produce more bass than a 6x9, more surface area. A 6.5 inch speaker is more of a mid-bass driver. Sure, the bass that you get from a 6.5 will sound better than the 6x9, as in cleaner. the pioneers are ok, more entry level. CDT and Diamond make some amazing 6.5's, and the Apline R's are nice as well

if you want bass get a sub. Anything can be done as long as the cash flow is there

the obvious route is glassing

I've got S 6x9s and I love 'em, my boss has 5 1/4" Type-S's in her truck and they sound pretty good for being deck powered...

They should sound wicked amped up...

Hillbilly, what would you perfer over my kickers if have installed now. The Diamonds , CDT's or the apline r's ? I didn't knwo apline had good mids i thought the only really quality thing they produced was their indashes and decks.

CDT CL-6EX 's are nice, i would do components tho.
For Components Cl-60's or the EF-61NEO

Diamonds D361i's sound nice.
For components either the D3's or D6's will be an improvement.

I have also been listening to a set of Elemental Designs I bought a set of the edi 6000's and they sound amazing. pretty nice price tag as well
