Does anyone know what speakers are stock in the rs 6.0? I've searched around the web and can't find anything. Everywhere mentions the upgraded headunit, but no mention of the speakers. I could pull the doors apart, but would rather not go though all of that trouble just to see what's in there.

In my '09 HTM, the ones in the front were premium Pioneer 6.5's and some 5.25" paper cone things in the rear doors. I replaced the ones in the rear with 6.5's from the front of another xB and hooked up a 300 watt amp. Sounded pretty good.

I have all my OEM speakers in a box. If I have time I'll take a picture of them and post it. The Alpines I have in there now are much better in my opinion.

....so do the front 6.5" speakers fit in the rear without any other modifications?

I removed the front stock Pioneers and replaced them with Infinity Kappa components. The stock speakers are just sitting in a box in the house. Can I use those as an "upgrade" to the 5.25" rears?

 

[Parkers09xB]

That's the front and back stock speakers. All 6 are 4ohm Pioneers.

I guess where I'm going with the question is based on the idea that each release series is supposed to have a theme. The rs 6.0 is supposed to be electronics with the interior leds and the headunit upgrade. It would make sense to me that Scion upgraded the speakers too. Does anyone know if they did? Or did it come with the same speakers as everyone else?

I'm interested in the answer to SurfMOMster's question too. If I do have the same stock speakers, that might be a cheap upgrade until I can afford a new set. I bet there are lots of extras sitting in boxes in garages and basements.

If our RS6's had an upgraded speaker system, I'm sure it would have been listed in the RS6 Package. I haven't had mine apart yet, but my guess would be that they are stock.

Yeah, that's what I assumed, but hoped otherwise.

Helen4Wheels - did you have to modify anything to get the 6.5's in the rear doors?

 

[Parkers09xB]

Yeah, I feel like they would've covered any special speakers in this video:

6.5 fits in the rear location no problems. Just threw Infinity Kappa 2way in there. They scream

No problems with putting 6.5's in the rear. I have these all around:

Those look great! I think I would need full covers though because my kids would end up accidentally poking holes in the cones.

On another note, I probably need to come up with an overall system design that I can gradually work towards. The problem is I don't know enough about what kind of amps, subs, and such are required and how to make sure they play together. No pun intended I'm not looking for anything huge. I just like to turn it up sometimes.

it seems that you mounted your speakers on the door panel itself..how did you do this?i bought the same speakers because i like the way your's looked..

imitation is the sincerest form of flattery..
