NOTHING...


the monsoons are 2amp and all aftermarket speakers are 4amp....or vise-versa...don't recall

but any speaker you put in will be running at half power

watch ebay for used ones is the best bet...or replace the whole damn system

Re: 2 blown speakers....why????

If you are serious about your music, rip out the entire Monsoon system. Get a new head unit, 6.5" componets for the doors, a 10" sub for the hatch, and a nice amp will do ya.

If you don't have the coin for all that, then this thread can help you out.
