RE: Speakers and amps....
wow...uncanny...i started a thread last week called 'got a grand...' and i asked the exact same question...look it up :)

RE: Speakers and amps....
what would u like to buy 1st amp,sub, or comps?
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
id start with head unit, maybe $200, then subs and amp, $500 for both, then comps,$200-300. Anyway, thats what i'd do.
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
beacause you have a 7th gen id do either new speakers or a sub and amp combo
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
Which brand of speakers and amps would be nice?
Thx~ |
RE: Speakers and amps....
depends on how much u want to spend on sub and amp
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
I have 1k budget....but i think for only amps and speakers...1k is too much~
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
well what kind of sound are you looking for?
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
i have the same budget, as well as a rockford-fosgate x400.4 amp (4x50rms)...and here is what I am doing...
1. Ordered replacement speakers from crutchfield. Went with Polks for the rear and Sony's for the front. Wasn't too high on the sonys, but they had good reviews. I dont like them, i'll return them and get polks for the front too. 2.After installing the speakers, if I dont like the sound (some speakers needto be driven harder tosound good), I'll install the 4ch amp. It has high level inputs. 3. Likely after doing this, it wont have enough bass, so I'll install a sub (1 12") and drive it off half the amp, using the other half for the mids. I'll lose my balance, but, i can deal with that. 4. If it still lacks sound quality, then I will look into a jl cleansweep, but those will eat the budget really fast, so it is a final step. |
RE: Speakers and amps....
^ u should run 2 amps
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
haha.
that's what the guy at the audio shop told me. then he proceeded to write me an estimate for all memphis audio equip...totalled out at 2000. i ran the identical setup in my 94 accord, except i had an aftermarket head unit, and i loved it. Aside from having more power all around, and control of the sub, why should i run two amps? |
RE: Speakers and amps....
well u just said it. also there wouldn't be so much on one amp and could help it last longer. also better sound quality unless u plan on running crossovers from the one amp.and the price for memphis is 2 much. also to the guy who started the thread go on crutchfeild and find things you like and are able to fit and then go on ebay and try to get them at a cheaper price.

RE: Speakers and amps....
in your opinion, what would i need to spend on an amp / sub package? not looking for much. and only want one sub.
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
depends on sub size/type "sq or spl" and the power your wanting out of an amp.
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
here is a nice amp..although a refurb it has a 2 year warranty... http://cgi.ebay.com/MA-AUDIO-HK1998-...QQcmdZViewItem
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
what is sq or spl?
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
that is a nice sub for that price i think my bro has one running two jl's
never mind thats a mono amp he has one that looks like that |
RE: Speakers and amps....
ORIGINAL: HuYnHness what is sq or spl? |
RE: Speakers and amps....
SQ is sound quality. This would be for the most accurate reproduction of music.
SPL is sound pressure level. This is for being really loud. SPL subs are generally massive and can handle a ton of power. |
RE: Speakers and amps....
definitely sq.
|
RE: Speakers and amps....
i think the 12" earthquake magma im plannin to put in is an spl sub
i need to get a hi/lo line converter which of these looks bettter? does it matter? valor line converter db line converter |

Everything in my sig I purchased for under a g and my car sounds pretty amazing, crutchfield.com and Fry's has pretty good deals on good speakers, I really recommend getting a balanced sound system though as one of my friends has only a sub and an amp and his car is very much unbalanced in the mid-high tone range, so comps, subs, and amps would be good
