6 speaker it may be but its only a 4 output head unit.

the dash speakers and door speakers run off the front channel and the rears run off the rears.

1st thing you should do is mess around with the setting on the head unit.

make sure the fader isn't all to the front. Also mess around with the balance to make sure the sound goes to the left and right as it should.

Many a time bad installs have been set up so if you fade it front to rear the sounds actually moves left to right.

But to be honest its iso connectors so the new unit will have gone straight in, so check the setup liek I said then have a look for dissconnected speaker leads.
