Good afternoon everyone , this is my first post , so hello !
Im posting today to see if someone could help me with advice for my aftermarket audio install on my 2015 Taurus SHO.
Me and a friend , replaced all door speakers with pioneers. We also have each door speaker (6x9) being powered by a
alpine 4 channel amp. (box says 45 rms x4 ) The issue that I am having , is that the sound quality is not the greatest.
At first , i thought that the pioneer speakers were not the best , but now , I am thinking that I could be because of the fact
that all of this is running through my stock radio. I've seen these tesla looking tablets that could be used as an aftermarket headunit for the audio,
but thats about it as far as upgrading the radio itself. All that I have done is amplified the door speakers and replaced the door speakers.
Any suggestions , tips , advice , or questions that you have , I would really appreciate it.
Ive used these same speakers and amp on my ford five hundred , and the sound was amazing , although , i had a kenwood radio.

Your going to want to upgrade to 100 watts rms per channel to get better quality because of how our ears don't really hear linear it taking twice the power to go up 1 db
Also the best first place to start is by sealing all the doors to get as little air movement from behind the speaker also that stiffens the panels.

Then if you feel you need more or just want to do more I'd find 2 amps that does 100 x 5 for the front channel tweeters center and mids then another for the rear 4
You could also wire this in a way so when you do balance that everything still works properly thru software and not only hardware knobs
