    focal 165 a1 or dls 426?

    I think the DLS are better if you want natural sound, but focals would be more bright & detailed which may give you fatigue for prolonged listening. So if you want to enjoy music without fatigue i think you must take the DLS 426. Between the Focal model which you listed here are components...

    Ok, i might ditch that setup & might go for the HSK 165 setup from other local shop coz i think its not worth spending that much on DLS for that much RMS rating. Its crap. Only natural sound but not loud enough, then screw it. Well the other shop said that he would put something behind the...

    Need Advice before Purchasing Alpine Speakers?

    The 6.5 will be better off the back, 51/4 smaller means smaller sound, bigger driver bigger sound.More clear. So put SPR 60 coaxials at back. Everyone does that, Comps in front & matching Coaxial at back. Some don't even bother to put speakers at the back. Dude sell those infinity &amp...

    Hertz is better but some say its harsh on high volumes, but i think i would get more louder than my current DLS which has only entry level specs. 60 rms i believe is ok, but majority of ppl atleast on forums ive have found going for 100 watts rms or above. But im ok with my current future setup...

    Hmm Pioneer GM-5400 T kind of feels average in power, the DLS can handle upto 600 watts max & its open air. The one which you listed i can't find on google. He said he would make a 40 litre enclosure for it & shallow enclosure. The thing is im not DIY guy, & know nothing about...

    Just today i went to a Car audio shop & heard the Punch series RF P 1652 or so comps, My God they Are insanely LOUD, that even 1 min of listening can cause damage to ears. The guy said he had it pushed @ 120 Watts. The tweetter were producing only Hissing noise, RF is loud but qualitywise it...

    I don't think he will be having Pioneer comps, I personally haven't visited the shop, so i will go ask him someday. But whatever i listed here were the ones with Promos, means less cost. He would be having other stuff but he might charge higher. All promo stuff seems decent for my budget not so...

    The local guy did mention that it will be louder than my stock speakers, if its that loud i will be pleased, coz the cruze stock i crank up to 30 or sometimes 36 to be loud & max volume on the Hu is 45. Plenty of room for me i guess, He did mention the RF R1652 is loud, but how can it be...

    With amp pushing atleast 70-80 watts i hope it is loud, because everyone says the most laid back speakers are usually quieter. But DLS has 93 dB sensitivity, & feeding atleast 70 watts will be enough, i guess what you guys think??

    JBL is known Brand which seems a bit expensive for my budget, il ask the local guy if he has this amp. PG seems somewhat perfect for my budget. But efficiency is @ 50% which i doubt will be good. Here's the link for it: Z500.4 - 500 Watt 4 Channel amplifier - Phoenix Gold This model is not sold...

    Is the phoenix gold Z500.4 good amp or should i go for the cheaper Pioneer amp?? The PG puts out 75x4 @ 4 OHMS. I guess enough for the DLS components whose max is 90 watts.

    The member also mentioned changing the Head unit will cost a lot more with a little benefit. Since cruze already has a nice Head unit, IDC about head unit, i have AUX which is more than enough, Though there maybe slight improvement with aftermarket Headunit but its not worth the cost. I am only...

    I don't think the Stock OEM radio has RCA, which in that case i have to use LOC's & regarding the Amp im not sure. But speakers as everyone says are rated at 20 watts rms/ channel. But anyays if i put an amp i will be bypassing the stock head units power. The local guy said.
