Please for the love of all things Holy dont put these in your car you dont need anything in the back of a clio its a tiny car - get the rainbows up front for great SQ http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/speakers-component-systems-c-24_26.html?cadid=9f7263adac8c9aa486201d04bdef0866 or anything...

You have a sub running off your Head Unit? it will probably be getting about 10wrms which will be why its quiet

What do you have up front?

A High to Low convertor converts the high level signal from the HU to a signal level input for amplifiers A High pass filter prevent low freqencies getting to a speaker and is compeltly different I assume your using an amp and not wiring the rear outputs directly to the sub? What amp are you...

I have killed more component speakers by clipping than I have subs ( and I run a lot of power to my subs - around 3kwrms each hehe)

course not buddy read the post once and assumed you meant one thing when you meant another - 's all gravy

Ah I do apologise you said I took under amping to mean using an amp smaller than the rated power of the speakers. you used it to mean using an amp smaller than the rated power of the speakers but trying to get more power out of it - hence pushing it into clip <places his e-penis back in his...

OH the Irony! your giving out duff information as well underpowering a speaker will not kill it - trying to give it more power than your amp can produce will but not underpowering it when you have your volume turned down low you are underpowering you speakers, do they die? NOPE! you can...

but that only leaves him £100 for wiring, a front amp and components for the front

For £200-300 your best bet is a decent pair of components for the front, a 10 or 12" sub (in a sealed box) and a decent 4 channel amp to power everything

But 6x9s only give a little bit of bass, the rest is the higher frequencies so 6x9s in a shelf behind you is going to draw the sound stage back behind your head which will sound poo

Power Caps mask the problem not resolve it - Power Caps can be of use in big SQ installs but for a daily boomer they are useless. Look at all the big UK Streetbass Cars, no one runs powercaps and they are the guys that know what they are doing the proper way to fix dimming lights is to...

If we where meant to listen to stuff coming from behind us we would have our ears facing the other way. Get a decent pair of components and sound deaden your doors it will sound much better than a pair of 6x9s on the rear shelf 6x9s are not always a bad thing - they do have a place every now...

Got both sides sorted for £250 so not too bad And Chris Moyles is me also known as Phil Jupitus

When im burping it (that is playing a single tone to see how loud it can go at peak volume) I wear ear plugs but for music yes it will make me deaf hehe for driving to and from the shows the volume is knocked down a bit but at the shows its all about showing off and getting a crowd around the...
