Default 6.5 to 6x9 possible?

Im ok with the 6.5s in the doors, but i dont think they will put out much bass in the rear. Is there any way to put 6x9s in the back? I know there are adapters for other speaker sizes...just cant find one for 6.5 to 6x9. I will eventually get some subs...so i guess it really wouldnt matter...but until then.

Previous owner had sony xplod 6x9s, the same that are sold in walmart jarred into the slots but i want something that wont rattle when the music is up. I tried to remove them to see what size the holes were and ended up breaking the tweeters off the speakers.

I believe it is, you would have to do some cutting though to make it fit. Its easier to get some nice 6.5s. some of them can push out some bass - especially when you go into 2 and 3 way models.

There were these nice looking kickers i saw awhile ago, but you can only find them online now. They would probably sound pretty good until you got subs. http://www.amazon.com/Kicker-DS650-6.../dp/B000ZM38S4

These also look very, very nice.

Thats good, if your putting in subwoofers anyway it drowns out the back speakers, so you can put a cheaper/older pair back there.

When I got new door speakers I migrated the older aftermarket door speakers into the rear
