Is there such thing as a drop in upgrade main door speaker upgrade? I am 100% not looking to get a new head unit, bigger amp, or anything else. I appreciate sound, but i simply am not invested that much.
they are 2 ohm, 6.5" speakers. as far as i'm aware, there is not an upgrade available within those specifications anywhere in the world.

it might be worthwhile to consider changing to a 4 ohm speaker, but the output will suffer to some extent that i don't fully know until someone tries it.

i hesitantly suggested this speaker as a replacement to another person, but haven't heard if they've even tried it.

could also try these:

like i said, there really aren't any direct replacements/upgrades, unless oem+ starts selling individual speakers, and the options i'm listing will have an 'output tax' of a currently-unknown amount because of the different resistances.
