question about coaxial speakers

Hi all

i have 2 coxial speakers in the rear of the car that i recently bought they have a nominal power of 280 watts they are connected directly to a Sony cd player that has a power output (45*4) it's works fine to me but it over heats,i want to ask if i use an amplifier let's say(250*2), will that improve the sound quality that much, will it be worth it.

any advice please....

1st i would move the speakers (i dislike bake speakers )
2nd adding an amp will be better then what you have (that is why thay mke them )
you need to look at what the amp can do (say a pg 500.2 will give you 125x2 or 500x1 ) but if you have more power in back of you ,you will hear just the back

Adding an amp will make it louder. And it will have less distortion at all volumes (thus making it louder, and being able to turn it louder). And it's less strain on your head unit.

a 50-100W RMS amp will make those guys scream!

Move them up front though, you dont face backwards at a concert, do ya?

But concerts aren't known for the best of sq, now are they?
I personally like being surrounded by sound, so you don't have high and low spots in volume.
But I do put my best speakers in the doors. But I still have it centered.
But that is just my personal opinion. I've never made a strictly sq system
