I got the rear 6.5" speakers in just fine today with the help of my brother, which leads me to assume the front speakers would be just as easy with 6.5's. So I might as well pick up some 6.5's over these 5.25's anyway. My only confusion still is why these Kicker KS525 speakers are more expensive...

Thank you! I do need someone who knows about this vehicle to help me out quite often it seems and I can never seem to find answers. Would you have any suggestions for 6.5" speakers? These were a gift, I received two 6.5's and two 5.25's and I figured I'd throw the 5.25's in the front for now...

Another thing - I know it might sound stupid but should I just use regular 16 gauge speaker wire between the sub and the amp?

Well I have 6.5's that will fit in the rear speaker placements because of the adapter rings but I also have some Kicker KS525 speakers for the front which I can only assume will definitely not fit. These speakers are only 5 1/4" so I will definitely need to do some modifications in order to...

Alright that sounds easy enough. I will give it a try soon here and let you know how it works for me. I'm pretty new to car audio/car modifications in general.

So I own a 2000 Saturn SL2. It has 4 stock speakers, all 6.75 (oversized 6.5's). I just picked up some 6.5" Kicker coaxial speakers. Could someone please point me in the right direction? I know I need a speaker mount kit, but most I've seen only have 2 or 3 places for screws when my setup has 4...

So how about the Crunch PZA1500.1? Would it work well with the VVME? I ordered the VVME already so I should have that in a few days - just have to find an amplifier and the right box now. I also ordered a 4-gauge wiring kit.

Now I'm torn between the Pioneer and VVME. Both seem like they pack a punch but which will have a better quality AND loudness? I feel like the VVME probably gets pretty loud but does it really sound that great? How well do you think it transitions between notes/how deep of bass is clear? This...

I second this - ever heard them? Are they like an off brand? The subwoofer does look pretty nice itself and the 800 RMS definitely sounds nice.

Yeah, I mean I know I've heard Boss isn't the best with car audio but I know their stuff's usually pretty cheap. If the thing really is only putting out 200watts RMS of course I should probably reconsider. But the sub woofer to me seems like a great deal especially for the price, definitely!

Hmm, and yes I have about a $200 budget for everything - this setup being about $175. As far as Craigslist goes, since I am very inexperienced I feel as though I won't be as informed as I'd like to be when dealing with quick sales. I have been researching this setup and finding that it does...

This is my first subwoofer setup I am putting together. Never had one, always wanted one. Anyway, do you think this setup will do me good? I'm looking for some serious bang from one 12" on a budget. (my budget being about $180-200) and this setup seems promising to me. Any suggestions? Will...
