LC Trim base level stereo

The JBL speakers are more complicated, especially the front door. Over in the JBL thread, SOCAL250 upgraded theirs

JBL Stereo

There is a lot more bass potential with the JBL system than I'm getting in normal use. I found the LC JBL system's lower end bass response disappointing; there were some notes my old Grand Cherokee's 10 speaker Alpine system hit with authority that are largely absent in my LC. Thinking...

You will need to get component speakers for the door that have a crossover and tweeter like the infinity primus 693c in that thread, or you could step up to the infinity kappa line

I dont think the component infinity refence REF697CF would work since it has a 2 way cross over that looks too large to fit into the A pillar, and I would not use a full range 6x9 in the door for the JBL replacement like i did with RE697F b/c it seems like the full range signal is sent to the door, so you need to make sure you dont end up doubling the tweeters

What do you think about these speakers for front door replacements for a LC FE JBl premium system.

I dont think those would be a good choice for the JBL system. According to the other thread, the signal for the front door on the JBL system is split between the A pillar tweeter and the door woofer, and its possible that the full signal range is sent to the door woofer depending on the crossover config. With out testing that, i would avoid door speakers that have a tweeter like these since you could end up doubling the high frequency response.

If you wanted to use 6.5" speakers like those, you could go for the Infinity Primus 603CF or Morel Maximo 6 MK ii, just make sure you get the correct mounting bracket for the 6.5, I used 6x9s so i dont know what model that would be

Thank you. It's sounding too complicated for me. Too bad, I'm also into hip hop and rap music, thus the reason for the door upgrade. So for now, I will just upgrade the dash speakers with what you had recommended. Hopefully that alone will improve the sound overall. BTW forgot to mention, I have already installed a Beat Sonic amp.

I think the door woofers would make the most difference for you. If you skip upgrading the tweeter it's no more complicated to just put the woofer in the door.

In your situation I would get the following:

Infinity Primus 693c
METRA 72-8109 wiring harness
METRA 82-8146 speaker bracket
Sound Deadening

Just install the woofers from the speakers and sound deadening (this really makes a difference for the bass) in the doors, and leave the tweeter upgrade for later if you feel you need it with this other wiring harness
