Hey everyone, first of all my car isnt a magna so just thoght i should get that kinda straight. Its a cressida and it has a 6 speaker stereo. Im looking at replacing all the speakers. They are in a 4,5.25 and 6 incch spots. 4 and 5.25 are up the front 6's r up the back. Now i have a few options. Replace the front with 5 inches and 4's and in the back have subs. Replace all the car speakers and have no subs.

I have a few problems, if i replace all the spears and hav no subs how do you work the amps out? Becuase a 4 channel amp cant power six speakers as far as i know. UNless you split two channels for the front 2? and have the other two to the back.


Im looking at the jaycar speakers (the expensive lot not the cheep as chips ones) how good are these? are they worth it? What about the jaycar amps?

Thanking You

You should be on toymods.org.au mate. :P

I wouldnt bother with the stock locations in the cressida. Make up some pods to stick 6" splits on your doortrims. Then you can run 6" or 6x9's up the back. Then a sub.

I have basically got this configuration in an ra65 celica that has pretty much the same factory spots a cressida does. I am running it with a boss 5 channel amp. Gives me heaps of power and is clear at high volumes.

if i had a cressida id probably stay here too

"i have a cressida"
would most likely get a reply such as
"thats an odd looking AE86"
way to many 'rollas on there..

anyways, id be doing the speakers long before even thinking about subs. hell, some of the jaycar sixers have got enough go when amped to not even need subs
