Anyone know if 2005 base coupe has amplifier, car has no rear speakers? Please help.

 

Yes it does have an amplifier but no rear speakers like LTD, SRT-6. I have replaced my headunit to accommodate Sirius and Ipod. Still using the stock amp thru stock speakers. I will replace the stock speakers soon. They sounded fine but the buzzing is driving me nuts. Good luck.

 

Thanks For The Info. What Do You Mean Buzzing?

 

my passenger side speaker is buzzing when listening to talk radio. When playing music it sounds fine. I can't figure out if it is the speaker that causes the buzzing or grille? or other speaker mount that is buzzing. Anyway, i have decided to replace the speakers. Is there any base coupe/roadster owners out there that has upgraded the speakers that can give me step by step DIY info (with pics maybe??? a picture tells thousand words). Also, since base does not come with behind the seat woofer, has anyone try to install sub woofers with existing amplifier? Any recommendations on component speakers for the doors and small (6 1/2) sub-woofers for the behind the seat? I am trying to keep everything looking/fitting stock without any modifications, since I am not the best DIY'er.

 

Remember the rear speakers are only subs "limited and srt",
full range in front only "all".

 

For the buzzing check to see if the tweeter has come loose. They snap into the fitting but I have come across a few where they were not snapped in all the way and that caused some buzz.

As for using aftermarket subs off that amp, don't head down that road as you will quickly find it is a different amplifier with different software.

Keep in mind a few things....

1. The door speakers are 2ohm and other than a few JBL and Infinity models don't expect to find that across most of the brands sold across the US.
2. The amplifier has an EQ system built into it that was set up for those drivers - changing the speakers will not undue that and may lead the system to sound worse than stock
3. If bass is what you are after without loosing space than I would suggest an Infinity Basslink powered sub. Its small, good sounding, and will work in harmony with your factory system.
