Car Speaker Replacement
Maybe you've blown your speakers, or maybe you're just ready to upgrade your puny factory-installed sound system. Most experts agree that factory-installed speakers are the weakest part of most car audio systems. When it's time to decide what type of speakers you want, it's entirely up to your ears and your budget. Higher-priced speakers usually provide better quality sound through all frequencies, while low-priced speakers may produce a less crisp sound across all of the audible frequencies. Furthermore, you'll probably want to buy speakers that fit into the factory-made holes in your car. Identical-size speakers make installation much quicker and easier.

Here are a few places to search for the perfect replacement speakers for you:

Wal-Mart, Target, etc. These retail stores offer generally low to medium quality replacement speakers from several different brand name companies. The selection isn't large, but you should be able to find speakers in most sizes; however, don't expect to find high end replacement speakers that fit your car. These stores are a good option if you want a low price low end (dual cone) or medium quality (2-way) speaker. Also, the salespeople are marginally helpful, at best, and they are not experts. Installation services are not available.

Electronics stores. National electronics stores like Best Buy, Circuit City, and Radio shack usually carry an ample selection of car audio merchandise to satisfy all but the pickiest audiophiles. These stores usually devote entire sections to car audio, and it's worth going so that you can listen to different types of speakers. Take some time and compare each type. The salespeople are usually somewhat knowledgeable and can help you find the speakers that best fit your needs. For those less mechanically inclined, good quality installation services are usually available for a small fee.
