factory radio
Now I am not the most picky person in the world but I did not get the upgraded radio in my FX4 and it sounds real bad.
Has anyone changed the speakers out, if so what did you use?
also what size are the fron and rear speakers...

Normally they are 5 x 7's.
I had Infinity Kappa's in my 99 f-150 for six years and they were great. I now have Alpine SPR-57C in my truck now and they are really good. They really sound good with the Kenwood DVD/Nav system I have

but the problem is that I don't want to change the head unit...I guess I could just wire up a 4 channel, but that is a bit more then I would want to spend on it....I used to be real big into audo but I got away from it and am more focused on my car....but as much as I drive the truck I would like a decent sound in it...

They are 5 x 7's, Ford is a little strange on size. I use Crutchfield to get my speakers and you can put in the style of your truck and it will tell you what speakers fit.
OEM is 5 x 7's, but you can put 6 x 8's in also without much problems

All the times i have upgraded speakers and not the factory headunit i have only ever got a very minimal increase in sound quality and volume levels. But the times i have kept the stock speakers and changed the headunit i have got a massive improvement in Sound quality and volume levels.
