I would like to install a new stereo, with USB and Bluetooth...

Is there a six channel stereo out there? Guy at Best Buy was trying to sell me a 2 channel amp to make up for the 2 that the 4 channel stereos did not cover.

I have replaced both front door speakers with 50W Pioneer Speakers....

Before I go any further, I thought it would be best to find some help as far as what to go with...

Are stock speakers any brand?

Ideas please....

why six? four corners plus a sub = 5. stock speakers are who the vehicle manufacturer specifies when building the vehicle. there is a fancy name or too but most are generic makers.

I thought there were speakers on the passenger rear doors as well.

2 Front Doors
2 Rear Doors
2 Rear Roof

The rear 4 speakers are on the rear channel with a factory amp. No need for a 6 channel.

I cut all that garbage out and I just use a 400w 2 channel amp that I have to power the 4 door speakers. It goes louder than I can listen to it lol.

I thought the sub out was designated as .1

if you have that setup then the two rears on each side are technically fed by the same channel but one left and right are fed from a separate amp which takes it input from the speaker levels outputs of the other rears. most just pick eithere the rear doors or roof and amplify those along with the fronts and subs if used.

in terms of car stereo external amps it is just called a channel like 4x100w + 1x400 for example.
