Can I replace my factory Blaupunct 15 watt speakers with these? I mean...will it sound really good? I am NOT replacing the head unit.

These sound better than the factory speakers they replaced, however, I do believe they will shine when driven at higher power. The head unit I am using is 52 watts peak.

Define sound good? It's sort of subjective. These speakers sound ok to me using the head unit only, but to be honest the speakers could use a separate amp to give them more power as I can't honestly tell the difference between these an the 20 year old Kenwood's they replaced. For the price, IMHO, it would be better than your current Blaupunkt speakers.

It depends on your vehicle and whether the speakers fit your car. Consult Crutchfield.com for fit of your vehicle. As for the sound, these speakers are really good. They handle all different ranges of any EQ....just not real heavy on the lows. I'm real satisfied with their sound quality overall.

If it's for a silverado crew cab but I'm not satisfied with them I think I might need an amp

These speakers are pretty incredible. They are surround speakers so logically they're not designed to be your mains, but there's really no reason they can't be. They have the same horn tweeter and drivers as some of the center channel speakers, driven by the right stereo receiver you should be just fine. Keep in mind, these things are pretty efficient with power but they'll only be as good as your receiver. Crappy receiver = crappy sound no matter what speakers you have.

I did. I have a 100 watt system and it worked perfectly. Just popped it in to replace the old woofer that was blown out. Sounds fantastic! Better than original!

These speakers are excellent but need to have an amp powering them to truly appreciate. Go to crutchfield.com to check compatability with your vehicle.

Sounds like it'll be slightly under-powered. It's always better (IMO) to overpower speakers to avoid blowing them at odd frequencies and high volumes. Power is exponentially more important than quality of speakers. Cheap speakers will sound great with an awesome power source but great speakers won't live up to their potential with inadequate or overrated ( cheap) power/amplifiers. My suggestion is overpowering your speakers about 15-20% more than the speakers are rated for. Won't matter if you don't "work" your speakers hard but under powering effects rebound of the speaker cone and can tear them apart. I believe these speakers are rated for either 125w or 150w. I matched mine up perfectly and wish I would have gotten a bigger amplifier, although they sound great but begin to struggle at very high volumes. It'll be fine if you don't abuse your speakers though.

Yes, if you only have a head unit with no built in amp, it would be a good idea to get an amp for these speakers. They will still work without an amp, but they won't be as loud or have hardly any bass. As for which type or size of an amp to get, I can't help you there.

They replaced my stock fried 2007 chevy 1500 4 door speakers perfectly, the fuzz is gone and all sounds well. To get more out of them I would have to go to a higher power aftermarket head unit, but adequate for this work truck. I always buy Alpine speakers as replacement/ upgrades and have never been disappointed.

I have 2 in my truck on a 2000 watt Brutus an it rocks! I would imagine that they would sound good with any decent 1600 watt D-Class mono amp ... Pionner has one .. Or just search 1600 D-Class mono and check the reviews

Same answer as others. Dont see the point in changing them, what you could do is buy a subwoofer that would give you an incredebly sound. Good luck!

Yes they do. I changed out all 4 of mine with these speakers and have base stock Head Unit. Added a little polyfil and they sound 10X better than stock.

Yes, I think so. Just find out how many watts per Chanel you have and check the range of the speakers if your total watts are more then half range of the speakers range they will sound good. The closer the output to the speaker max but not over, the better they will sound.

Hello, What head were you using when the speakers blew? I'm interested as I just bought the 2x10 and the 1x15. From what I understand seismic audio has replacement speakers for sale. If you take off the metal mesh type thing in the front the speakers should be able to come out after unscrewing them. I believe you can replace the speakers with any bass cabinet replacement speaker, but I would replace them with the same ohm speaker. From what I have read while researching bass cabinets is that eminence is the speaker of choice to replace blown speakers with. Just make sure you get one that's made for this purpose. A quick google search should come up with some results. Good luck! Hello, What head were you using when the speakers blew? I'm interested as I just bought the 2x10 and the 1x15.

These are actually perfect for your liberty. Assuming you still have the factory radio. The factory speaker are 2ohms so you'll actually be able to utilize these to their full potential.

I couldn't tell you but they don't need a lot of power for them to sound good. I have them running off a Samsung 7.1 1000 watt receiver. You have to bury the base of the speakers under ground for the bass to sound good. I hope this helps!

Shouldn't be an issue. Drove a pair of speakers rated at 8ohms, 420W with no issues. Only reason I replaced mine was the lack of a sub-out port.

You would probably have to check with the manufacturer if you can find a website for them. I'm guessing they just updated the insides in some manner. All I know is that the little rig puts out some great sound. Have one driving two 30 year old three way speakers that were way to costly when new and they have never sounded so good :-)

Unfortunately, no. These really need an amp to drive them. They just won't sound right without. You need something made for wattages similar to what your head unit can deliver.
