Clio Mk 3 Install

[DynamiqueDick]

I got my System all in its pretty booming

JVC KDSH 55R Head Unit
Cerwin Vega Components and 6 X 9s
Steg Amp
12 Cewin Vega sub

Not loud enough though would two tens and a genisis amp be better and use the steg amp to power all speakers not just the front ones.

 

[ClioJohn]

why oh why did u get 6x9s

 

[ClioJohn]

one question. where did u run your power cable?

 

[DynamiqueDick]

Whats wrong with 6 x 9s they are booming??

Power cable dont get all technical on me i had it fitted by the pros!!

 

[ClioJohn]

6x9s and sub is a big no go. the sub just distors the 6x9s. go to any ice show and ull hear what i mean.
at most stick a good pair of coaxiles in the back for rear fill. but its your system.

for further information look on www.caraudiodirect.com/forum

lot of folk who know alot about car audio

Ive had a few systems before. The best configuration is proberly components in the front and a decent sub ,powered by a decent amp.

sorry did not mean to repeat my self

 

[ClioJohn]

but have u ever compared it with a system that dosent have 6x9s? i bet u havent or you would rip those bad boys out faster than i could tell you to...er

 

[Craig Adams]

6x9s are okay in my opinion if you dont have a sub. the trouble wiht 6x9s is that they are trying to do everything, a bit of bass, midbass, vocals and highs, and they do it all okay, but a single sub and a pair of quality components would sound a lot better because the sound seperation would be better!!!

 

[ClioJohn]

yeah if u just want 6x9s and components/coaxiles..they are great...just when u run 6x9s and a sub.

 

[night.icon]

I think it also depends on the quality of the 6x9s

 

[LOUDWILLIAMS]

Alrite lads! Just like you nighticon, ive got a serious system in mine with 6x9s and i got a 3rd place prize in a novice install comp and got more points than the 3rd place in the pro, so im all for 6x9s. it was a sound quality comp, not a db drag.

 

[LOUDWILLIAMS]

so no distortions from mine, thats all Kicker

 

[night.icon]

LW what set up do u have !

 

[CS_Matt]

got 2 15s with 6x9s and upratedfronts and my install is loud and crisp

 

[derv]

i must agree with cliojohn, 6x9s and subs dont really mix, its ok if you filter out the bass to the 6x9s but as my mate did just kept the bass flowing through them and they used to flap like crazy cus of the cross-waves from the 3 subs. Its blown one of the 6x9s (anyone want 1 sony 6x9?) and he wasnt even running that much power to them. so now he has had the clever idea of sticking 3 sets of 6x9s instead! sigh!

Surely, as with most things when it comes to modifying, its a matter of personal taste.
