I have an '07 Sonata limited and was wondering if anyone knew the power rating of the speakers it has. I'm looking to upgrade and want to know what power rating to be looking for as I find that these can't get as loud as I would like.

 

I'm no car audio expert but wouldn't the maximum volume be affected by the output of the headunit/amp rather than the speakers rating? I would think you may be able to improve the sound quality by replacing the speakers but I doubt the maximum volume would change. On the other hand if your issue is that you can't even turn the volume to maximum because of the limitations of the OEM speakers then maybe new ones would help.

 

The speakers can't handle the power I'm trying to give because of the after market amplifiers pushing them. With the OEM head unit and original installation they could be maxed just fine, but after delivering more power to them they can only go so high without crackling and getting fuzzy and I don't want to blow them out.

 

Crackling is already destroying them, and your amp. You clearly need to upgrade if you need to blast it louder.
