I've read where the factory speakers are 8 Ohm but I want to use JL Audio 4" Coaxials which are 4 Ohm.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just got an 03 Coupe and have a stereo question. My car has the Hi-Fi Sound (Digital) and I'd like to JUST replace the speakers. I've read where the factory speakers are 8 Ohm but I want to use JL Audio 4" Coaxials which are 4 Ohm. Have you done this and had no problems with the factory amp overheating, blowing the output transistors...etc ? And to avoid some responses.....I know good audio from bad. I have Arcam, B&W...etc in my home movie/stereo system. In this car I just want a little better sound and I'm not really committed to a new HU/amp/sub or anything along those lines....yet! My son has an old Avalon and we put four of these JL Audio speakers in his car and tell you what....they really pound out some good sound....ESPECIALLY fo a 4" speaker.

They are some threads about this but I wouldnt waste a lot of money on stereo upgrades for the 996. I really dont llisten to mine much as I usually prefer windows down and roof open to hear the engine.
