If you want to make your car speakers louder, there are many ways to do this. You don't always have to spend loads of money to get the sound you want. The first most important factor that makes an big difference on how loud your car speakers are is the headunit. Factory radios provide something like 10 to 15 watts rms per each speaker channel. This is fine if you're using cheap stock paper speakers, but if you have upgraded your speakers to component or coaxial speakers, then you need an better headunit to give them the power they need. Aftermarket headunits from pioneer or alpine provided like 30 RMS output even though there claims on the front panel say 50 X 4. When purchasing in the car audio world, always when looking for amplifiers and speakers go with the RMS rating on the stuff. This is the true real wattage rating, anything that states max or peak is an waste, as its not real wattage ratings and only to sell the product to people that are new to car audio.
Adding an car amplifier is going to provide the best level of power to the car speakers. Make sure you add an additional four channel amplifier to power your four car speakers. Two speakers in the front and two speakers in the back. The RMS rating has to match what the voice coils the speakers are designed for. For example, an pair of 6x9 car speakers rated at 80 rms, need an car amplifier that provides 80 rms at 4 ohms. Class A/B amplifier are best to use or door speakers and not CLASS D, as it provides reduced distortion and better sound quality.
Sound deadening material also can increase the loudness of your car speakers. This is foil like stick on stuff that is really thick and dense that is stuck onto the metal parts of the door. This sits just behind the removable door card that exposes the inner part of the door. The sound deadening material can also be used to seal up any gaps in the door, this allows to create an mini enclosure. This increases bass from the car speakers and overall makes the sound more stronger.
Thicker speaker wire can be used and should be used when adding an aftermarket amplifier. 14 gauge speaker wire is good for car door speakers. 10 gauge for car subwoofers. Run the speaker wire down the inner panels of the car, when feeding it through the rubber boot, use an coat hanger to feed the wire through.
