Stock speakers in 95 Altima - how much can they handle???

May 8th, 2003, 02:46 PM

Just wondering if anyone knows how much the stock speakers in the 95 Altima will handle? They're the 4 speakers that came with the Nissan AM/FM Cassette player (not the Bose).

I'm wanting to put in a 200w system and am wondering if those speakers will be able to handle it.

Yeah as soon as you run 45 or more watts to those, I bet those bad boys will blow.

Crutchfield says to go 5x7 upfront and 6x9 in the rear but you could also go to 6.5's and 5-1/4's using adapter plates. Before you actually by, look at whats currently in your car, they should say and if not get a ruler. Better safe than spending 150.00 on good speakers an having to cut out your rear deck to fit them.

I wouldn't mess with the stock speakers either they are old, inefficient, and lack any decent sound reproduction. Just a nice coaxial in the door and in the rear will make it sound amazing comparatively. Just my .02 though.
I switched mine out to all JL Audio speakers with a set of tweeters in the pillars, 5x7 coaxials in the front, 6x9 coaxials and a sub in between the two in the rear. I replaced all the cabling as well with Monster Cable Reference.
