    Question E36 M3 Sedan non hk Rear speaker replacement

    I just recently blew my Rear speakers in my 1997 M3. I am looking into some 6x9s but I dont know any of the specs of the factory ones. I need to know the OHMs and watts of the factory speakers.

    Pretty sure any 4ohm speaker will work. Don't worry about watts, stock amplifier barely puts out any power. You will need 6x9 adapters too to make install easier.

    I thought it was 4ohm but I didnt want to over work the amp and I'm looking at 6x9s any recommendations for a decent price? I have been looking at the JBL Club 9630

    I have tried and they give me very few options for a 6x9 but they give me 4" mids

    Most 6x9s are 2way and 1 channel input, meaning full range sound. The factory amp has the hi-low cross overs built in and 2 pair (high and low) to each side. You will need to find a set of 2 way component 6x9s and an adapter for mounting in the rear location on a non-HK system.
    A set like these; https://www.woofersetc.com/c-172-spe...rs-system.html

    And you will not use the 6x9's crossovers.

    Surprisingly I ended up going to wall mart and buying a pair 4" speakers for $20 that fit into where the factory speaker was as a replacement. they sound decent for the price but now I want to upgrade the head unit, door speakers and maybe a amp
