Using component speakers with the Factory Alpine system

[gregshin]

I have 2015 with the factory alpine system and was wondering if i can use components in the front door.

I believe the front doors only do mid range and no hi's correct?

My plan is to use this with out the tweeters. I have already upgraded my dash speakers btw.

you can but it will be under powered and not worth the speaker upgrade. You would have to stay around 25 watts RMS to benefit from it. I upgraded my doors to 3 way 6x9s that are 100w rms and its got a bit more tone but not as lod as it should. I have alpine system too.

If I had the cash I'd rewire the system and get a good 4 ch amp and get some power to the doors.

^^ Not quite the route I would take. We do components off headunits and it isn't bad. They aren't to their potential but usually an upgrade. Doing it off a factory amplifier makes them a tad better. It's a first step. Will it be an upgrade? I don't know the Alpine is impressive. Will it be an upgrade if you add some power later down the road? Probably.
