I've got the '07 double cab Tacoma and I don't know about you guys but the factory sound was doing nothing for me! I have the 6disc changer model (non JBL).
So I started my research and started visiting some local car audio shops. I really wanted to keep the stock stereo because of the 6disc ability and the look of it too. So my first thought was speakers. First shop suggested a high-end Boston component system for the fronts, Memphis for the backs and a 4-channel amp (whopping 900.00 upgrade just for speakers!). Next shop suggested I keep the existing tweeter in the front and upgrade with Alpine 6X9's 3ways in the front and Alpine 6.5's in the back with no amp just speakers. Lot less money. The second shop also would cut some adapters for the fronts so they would fit properly.
I went with the Alpine option for now and it is a really day and night upgrade from the flimsy factory speakers! Just wanted to pass on my experience. Granted also, I'm not wanting slaming bass and super loud just even nice response.
