I was thinking of adding a set of 3-way Sony Xplod 6x9's in the doors of my truck. I have a 50x4 watt Sony CD player, Kennwood dual under dash speakers (like 3" each), and 2 Xplod 2-way 6.5" speakers in the kick panels. I'm not that satisfied with the sound. It sounds OK, but the stock CD player and speakers in my mom's '01 S10 sound a lot better. I was planning on hooking up the four speakers i have right now as the front two speakers, and then running the 6x9's as the rar speakers. Would this be a good idea for better sound? I do like fairly loud bass, but i would rather have decent bass and good sound than good bass and crappie sound. Also, is the thin guage wire that comes with the speakers very good, or should i get that thick stuff they sell at the car audio store? And what kind of connectors are the best for connecting the wires?
