alright there, anyone got the spec of the speakers in the corsa c? I have a Corsa C Life 2002 (special ed), the stereo in there is a CDR 2005 VDO, got a new alpine HU which has 4x 60 pre outs! and need to know if the speakers can take it.

I digress, the stock speakers are the best I have heard in a stock system, much better than other aftermarket brands I have heard. They are 6 inch Blaupunkt components (on Australian models anyway...) I upgraded to MBQuart RSC213s and found although the MBQuarts were crisper, they were lacking in bass and oomph.

They will take the power from the headunit easily. The 4x60 rating is a max for the HU internal amplifier, it will give out a realistic 4x17 RMS.

4 inch, pieces of shit
Although will sound a lot better off a small amp or the head unit will be a better idea.

Rear fill is not as important as the fronts, I'd rather spend 100% of my budget on upgrading the splits than spending any money on the rear speakers.

in the past, i'd pick up a pair of $50 branded 2way for the back, i guess i'd do the same on the Corsa
