Question:

what is a good truck speaker?

i have a 2008 f-150. my stock door speakers are terrible. I want door speaker that are LOUD!!! i dont want to install a amp or base speakers. only door speakers. What are a good brand of door speakers for a truck.

Answer:

I have a 1995 ford and I changed all my speakers to pioneers. And it's sounds good that is what I would put in it.
it ought to all excellent be your amp. I had a Kingwood 600 watt amp and theory it became the undesirable connections that made the exact same sound you're describing notwithstanding it became truly in my head unit. apparently Pioneer is between the worst to make the floor noise. yet Pioneer is the only which I had so i did not verify into the different manufacturers yet you would elect to.
you need to amp the speakers. even aftermarket stereos put out less than 20 watts rms, stock stereos put out less. look around for a good 4 channel amp, capable of delivering 50 watts rms @ 4 ohms per channel or more, this is the best way to get loud, clean sound, you don't even need new speakers. if you really don't want to add an amp, search for speakers with high efficiency ratings. efficiency is measured in decibels @ 1 watt and at 1 meter. the higher the efficiency rating, the easier your speakers can be driven by your stereo and the louder they will be. An efficiency rating of 95db @ 1w and 1m or higher is what you want. check out polk audio. if i remember correctly, their mm series is pretty efficient. be wary of cheaper brands advertising high efficiency ratings. they are usually lying!! check to see if they are cea certified.
