How do you like them? Just bought a pair and they seem kinda light to me. Haven’t installed yet. Would rather get some opinions here first.
Thanks

There isn't much room in the trunk for a substantial speaker without doing some cutting. I'd invest in replacing the front speakers and add an amp. Anything more will compromise some space. With my wife I need all I can get!

Agreed Bujee. I put Polk DB521s in my trunk and had to do significant modding to get them in there. Definitely sound better than the stockers, but a lot of work for not a lot of gain.

Are you using an amp?

Yup. Got a Soundstream Stealth ST4 1000 watt amp set to 3 in the front and 0 on the rear. If you try turning it up, those little speakers can't handle it. With the stock stereo, I can't turn the volume past 23.

Yeah, I thought they looked a little light. I'm only going with 600 watts. Hope they can handle it. You have to do much cutting in your trunk?

Yeah, had to cut mine out as well. I didn't put any caps on yet, but that is a good idea and a good looking job.

Have you check the specs on the speakers:

DB522

Have you compared the specs of your (unknown) amp to the speakers?

600 watts / 4= 150 per channel?

Tune the system properly and you will not have an issue.

Arc Audio moto 600.4 = 150 x 4 yes.
I'm thinking it should be fine.
