The front and rear speakers are different. the rears are full range while the front door speakers are mid range with the signal being split to the tweeters in the windshield pillars by the factory amp.

[QUOTE=13Lariat4x4;3108752]The sony speakers and system sound great, actually almost as good as the $2000.00 system that I upgraded to as far as clarity. The issue that I had was once the volume reaches 1/2--3/4, the OEM amp has a safety mechanism built in to protect the speakers from getting overpowered therefore it dilutes the sound (mainly bass.) The speakers themselves sound great....my wife has a Mark Levinson system in her Lexus and up to 1/2 volume or so, this sounded almost as good.
I had several friends tell me that I was crazy for upgrading but I just wanted more volume but I had to pay $$ to get it. For most of the population, the Sony OEM system would be more
what speakers u replaced the factories with? Ohm? Anyway to bypass the safety switch when adding aftermarket speakers?

I used a local company that put my system together. They kept the head unit, tweeters, center speaker, and amp--to power just the center and factory tweeters. They replaced the front speakers with Sony GS Component speakers and the rear with Sony GS coaxial speakers and added a Sony GS 400x4 amp to power those. They also added a 10" Sundown Sub in a custom ported enclosure and powered it with a Sony GS 600x1 amp. It sounds incredible....most people think that I have way more speakers, amps and money in the truck than I do. Other than the box under the rear seat, everything looks OEM.
