Does this mean the HU and the door amp are putting out a full range? I only ask because I'm interested in just changing the speakers.
I also understand that the stock speakers are at 2 ohm. What kind of class D amp trickery are they using, if it is a stock 25w or so per ch amp @2ohms, will it mean only 12.5w @ 4ohms?
Anyway, thank you for reading and any input.

The stock headunit puts out full range, the stock amp has some lpf built in, although idk that I have even seen anyone measure it. The stock amp is replaceable with the ktp-445u or other 15A similar amps, but this can introduce other issues of passing full range amplified signal into the doors if you don't use a passive crossover anywhere. @
daskaman thread is basically about how doing this can lead to the sound being peaky and bright if you also put speakers with a tweeter in the door.
edit: corrected hpf to lpf
While you can replace the speakers 1 at a time, it is easier to replace them all together with a passive crossover set. but more expensive, to it depends a bit on what your goals are on whether this is a practical route to go.
