I have Kenwood Excelon 6x8s that I like a lot - a little bit "forward" in the midrange, but good bass from a 6x8. I have one in a Town Car and it made a lot of difference.Īs for brands of speakers, I used to buy Polks, but found that the tweeters did not last long in hot interiors - never failed, but developed a horrible resonance in upper midrange. The Cleansweep takes line or speaker ins, but only has line outs. It "undoes" factory freq response modifications to get nearly a flat response. If you want to keep the factory stereo, check out the JL Audio Cleansweep. Crutchfield's "what fits" guide will tell you for sure. I plan to move my HD900/5 from the 07 to the 10.Īre you sure the speakers are 5x7s? Ford uses 6x8s in a number of their vehicles. There are a LOT of fine amps out there, but JL Audio seems to be what has always fit what I needed and are highly regarded as having accurate/true specs. If you want to step up to separates in the front I would probably try to power them. My brother replaced his factory speakers with these and they sound pretty good and don't require much power. If you just wanted to replace the speakers, I would look at the Infinity models on Amazon. If I can get the Massive CK 6X separates (new for 2012) to fit, I think I will go with those. I used Massive CK6 Stage II separates in the front of the 07 and I think I am going back with those in the front of the 2010. I did not replace the rear door speakers and probably want in the 2010. I also have an 07 Explorer Sport Trac which I put a complete aftermarket system in. I have the Sony sub/amp under the rear seat and it is okay, but will be replaced with a Sundown SD10 and a better power amp. I have the Sony system in mine and it is fairly respectable at lower volumes, but if you attempt to crank it up much at all it begins to stress in the upper mids and highs. I know the front and rear door speakers are 5 x 7, but you could put 6.5" in there with an adapter. I have a 2010 Ford F-150 Platinum that I am about to take the front pillar tweeters out and look at here in just a little while today so that I can see what will fit.
