Front door Speakers

[YUOnDaGround]

First off I have search and I couldn't find an answer.

1. Dealing with the front door speakers, there seems to be two speaker mounts in the door. Is this an option from one stereo to another? As in cheaper systems get smaller speakers and the better systems get bigger speakers?

2. I ask this because I looked at the grille today and there seems to be two holes, one upper (4.5"-5") and then a lower (6"-6.5") On my truck the top hole has a speaker in it and the bottom doesn't.

3. Could someone fill me in. Thanks for your time.

I do have a factory sub.

I am no expert and not 100% but I would think that the Bose system would utilize a 6.5 speaker like on my 99. Hopefully someone else can back that theory up with certainty.

My truck doesn't have Bose so I just wanted to make sure that I can put a 6.5" speaker in the front doors.

According to Crutchfield.com, the front doors are 6.5, the rears are 6.5, and the back panel (aka subwoofer) is 8 inches.

I have an 01' Yukon SLT and it has tweeters in the top holes. they are normal size pillar tweeters in a larger adapter made to fit the top hole in the door. and then i have the normal 6.5 speaker i think in the bottom hole. i don't know anything about the tweeter i just had the door apart yesterday to replace a window regulator.

Ok, I only have a speaker in the top hole and bottom one is not used. Just a black blank piece.

I had a 6.5 and tweeter in mine. I went with component speakers back in there. Sounds great.

Is having two speakers in the front door a common setup?

Well, it came with all GM Trucks. Most of them on the lot were 10 speaker systems. So really yes, most all Tahoe's have 2 speakers in the front doors.

Also, I would suggest replacing all the doors with Infinity KAPPA's. I currently run these in my front doors, and then a set of Infinity Reference 6032SI's in the rear doors (The rear doors did not have tweeters).

After that, I would also replace the tweeters in the rear pillars in the cargo area as well and run them to an amp. Depending on what brand you choose, and who you buy it from, price range can vary. Personally, don't skip out on the Audio portion of the truck. You have to drive it everyday, so make sure your happy with what you put in it.
