Have a customer with a 05 Chrysler 300.  It has 6 3/4 in the front doors and 6x9 in the rear deck.  She wants more sound from the speakers, so I sold her on the idea to replace the speakers and add an amp to the replaced speakers.  She wants it louder with a little more punch.

Should I get a good set of 6x9 for the rear deck with a component 6 3/4 up front, or

6 3/4 component in front door and in rear hatch

The amp is a Memphis Class AB 4 channel 75x4.  Thanks

You don't need components in back. Just throw some 6x9s back there and have her pick a set of components that she likes the sound of. components in back, to me, is overkill.

I agree with customsuburb, there will be plenty more sound and a lot more punch, assuming that the amp is properly chosen.

I'm not a huge fan of 6x9 in back :/ My setup is like that currently without the amp and I find the making a front stage sound like impossible... Given I don't have components up front, but I don't really know if that'd even fix the problem so much... :/ Just my input with that setup. I also only have 5.25" in front, so there may be a difference in ability on the size.

Okay, thanks for the responses so far.  Would the 6x9 give more of a bass feel than the 6 1/2 component.  If so, I think I will use MB Quart.  Any suggestions on specific model numbers for the 6 1/2 and the 6x9.  I noticed they make a component in a 6x9, should I get that and mount the tweeter in the rear door??  Should I just get a 2 way 6x9??   MB quart any good???   Money is no issue to this customer.

Thanks.
