If you were happy to go secondhand, you can get some bargains!

i like the head unit! and cant go wrong with alpine! though...when you get your new amp...care to throw it my way lol

 

[Tigger]

Looks like a fair setup

 

[Gammer]

yeah, if you wanna buy the old amp just mail me the details im sure we can arrange somthing

im thinking of going for a big Alpine 4 way amp, as next mod will be screens in the headrest.

 

[Tigger]

I'm guessing you are going to bridge the 4chnl amp to run the front speakers?
Tthen keep your old amp ^ to run the sub

 

[Gammer]

I was thinking that yeah but i think i will run the front speakers off the head unit buy a new amp properlly 1000w + to power the sub at about 700watts and use the other 300 for the back speakers

 

[Tigger]

Aaaahhhhhhh NO!

Don't amp your rear speakers!

 

[Tigger]

From another thread today..

Yes! Put your tweeters in the A-pillars
I can't describe in words how much it will improve the soundstage

Nothing in the rear at all?

If you went to a concert would you stand with your back to the stage?
Your want your soundstage up in the front-end, where anyone would be facing when sitting in the car.

A simple but decent set of rear co-axils will provide you with sufficient rear fill, so that the back isn't completely "empty".
Anything too powerful is going to disrupt the soundstage, creating more noise than music.

I have had these since I first upgraded from the standard speakers, almost 3 years ago, still running sweet
They aren't even amped and don't need to be

I have recently upgraded my front-end to competition level and had some matching-work done on the rear to bring the co-axils out from behind the nasty renault plastic

They look nice, i will get my mates to help me put my speakers in atm

Will have a JL Audio E1200 Amp for sale soon 200 x 1 RMS and a bass controller if you would be interested?

 

[rs32]

don't forget the dynamat in suitably-chosen areas !

fantastic stuff and will bring even medium-quality speakers to life
