Default Replace 6" rears in C5 Coupe??

Any benefit to this? I mean it seems that the signal is low to them as it is...either the sound stage was set that way or they are not very good speakers...if I set the rears to be the only speakers on in the car...they are very low in volume and muddy...will a nice set of full range speakers do anything or is it a low signal sent to them by the BOSE HU? I like the front sound I hear...but the rears are just not there...

TIA!

I tried just replacing the speakers and it sounded like more of the same crap. The head unit will have to be replaced if you want the rears to be full range. That is why I finally gave in and replaced EVERYTHING.

Crap! Now I guess its time to save up for a nice flip screen DVD player and some serious speakers huh???

Oh well- the price we pay to own a Vette!

Thanks for the input!
