    Anyone know how much Boston charges for X-overs?

    I checked last year when there was a set of z6's on fleabay without xovers and was quoted $199 each. I don't know if there is any other route to find them a a discount They come up once a month or so on fleabay and go for $150 - $200 for a pair.

    auxiliary

    I got one of the cheap pioneer aux adapters of ebay a couple of years ago and it has worked flawlessly with my 860mp h/u.

    Boston Z6's

    Okay, okay you got me. I will admit that 300 watts rms with a 1khz test tone into a 3 ohm load is not the same as a real world musical sourced 300 watts rms, but the 85wx4 rockford amp that the original posted asked about was not going to deliver 85 watts rms in real world terms either. I was...

    Boston Z6's

    I'm not a car audio professional, but I am an electrical engineer, so I know how to set an measure gains. When my pioneer 860 is set at 35/40 I am pushing 300 clean watts to the z6's in my 04 dakota quad. Going down the freeway with my windows wide open (I love the air flow) I will often set...

    Boston Z6's

    I also have z6's in an 04 Dakota Quad Cab. Though I only have one set in the front. I am not certain how well you can set the front sound stage with a set in the rear. I started with a 2x100 Boston Acoustic amp. Got a 2x300 old school US Amps for the 6.5 drivers and drive the tweets with the...

    Placement Opinion

    I have an 04 Dakota Quad with the exact same doors. The stock location works very well for 6.5" comps. It would take a good bit of work to make a 6.5 work up by your shoulder. I would vote for the stock with tweets by the rear-view mirror. That is how I have my boston z6's set up and I have...

    Anyone with Boston Z6

    Boston Acoustics says 20-400 watts. I originally used a Boston GT-22 amp which is 2x75 at 4 ohms, so maybe 2x100 at the 3 ohms the Z6's are rated. I recently switched over to bi-amping. The GT-22 drives the tweets and I have a very old school US Amps that I set up to drive the woofs at 2x250...

    Question about Pioneer CDIB100 (ipod adaptor)

    I have the CDIB100 mounted under the passenger front seat of my Dodge Dakota Quad Cab and the ipod is in my center console. The pioneer bus cable that came with the CDIB100 was long enough to route from the head unit to the passenger seat. It was my first install over a year ago and has worked...

    Dodge Quad Cab owners, step inside

    Are we talking an 03 Dodge RAM Quad Cab? Then the front 6x9 and rear 5 1/4 is correct. In the 03 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab it is 6 1/2 front and rear. I have the dakota quad cab and have installed Boston Acoustics all around in 6 1/2 inch.
