The guy at the local shop said if i wanted to pay my music louder i should get an amp and that most people have amps for their front speakers because the rear is just for filling.
Amp for door speakers and tweeters.
For most applications i recommend 50w rms per channel minimum.
I have just picked up a pair of db691s a pair of db651s and a pair of db1001 tweeters which i plan to hook up to a alpine mrx f30 4 channel amp.
The output of the amp is 50w rms x 4 at 4ohms.
If your door panel has an existing speaker grille in place this is the best location for your tweeter.

You may want to consider a 5 channel amplifier that can power your entire system from one convenient and compact package.
Pull the wires through the door and attach them to the speaker.
Basically you ll want an amp with good sound quality that can give a decent amount of power.
Loosely attach the door panel to the door barring the window crank.
You may need to add an l pad to reduce the level of the tweeter to match the front main on each side but it s a simple thing to do.
I had planned on just hooking up the two front door speakers to the tweeters in parallel two channels and then hooking up the rear door speakers to the other two channels.
Holding the speaker in its new hole mark the screw holes.
Another method is to use the 4 channel amp to power the 4 main speakers then just connect the tweeters with their crossover in parallel with the front set.
You ll also want the ability to block distortion causing bass by using high pass crossovers on your tweeters or midrange speakers.
However if there s no grille on your car door then feel free to install your tweeter wherever you want high frequency sound to come from.
The above is to be fitted in a nissan frontier.
Then remove the speaker and drill accordingly.
If you chose to bottom mount your speakers mount your speakers in the door before hanging the panel.
Jl audio s hd900 5 five channel amp can power your front and rear speakers along with a sub.
The db1001s shall be on the front dash the db691s in the front doors and the db651s in the rear doors.
