Sorry I missed the notification on the reply.Yes, it’s definitely worth it to at least upgrade the mid bass woofers in the lower portion of the doors. I did this with a Hertz DSK 165 speaker set and left them powered by the factory B&O amp. The Hertz speakers also come with a set of 24.3 mm tweeters which fit perfectly in the A-pillars (must hot glue them in) behind the factory grills too, so it looks factory. I do have an AudioControl 4.300W amp running the tweets. The rear deck speakers don‘t bring much to the party either. I actually removed one of mine to serve as a bass port for the 12” JL Audio Stealthbox sub that I’m running. I am using an AudioControl 1.300 mono sub amp to power the subwoofer. My speaker signal is fed from the head unit via a PacAudio AmpPro4 fd-21 amp interface, into an AudioControl DM-608 Digital Sound Processor and from there, into the two aforementioned amps. Stereo sound killer now! Oh and I removed the center channel speaker from the dash altogether and it improved the sound. No negative effects either.
I was thinking of doing all of the speakers. My hope was that an amp would help with the rear speakers being louder and having a better surround sound feel. Maybe that isn't possible with the B&O setup. I am new to all of this and will have to rely heavily on my audio guy but do I need to worry about what someone else said which I think was in relation to OHMS of the stock speakers?
Anything I should watch out for or know? I want to give him as much information as I can before we decide on what to do. Also, did you do any sound deadening? I know the doors sound crazy hollow.
