So after fighting with my car for about a week everything is in and sounding fantastic (I never knew crimping 4 gauge wire could be so difficult!). I can see why you guys mentioned needing a subwoofer, it lacks when the lows hit, but the highs and mids are beautiful. The whole thing just sounds...

It was ok. I wasn't that impressed with its sound quality. Even my friend with a basic Rockford Fosgate (that his shop messed up twice trying to install it then scratched and tore his door panel, claiming that he did it) system sounded better than mine. Hence why I upgraded. Oh and the all the...

The Dynamat is $12.99 but that is only for the front door speakers. Here is the link. I haven't compared to secondskin or RAAmat maybe those would be a better choice?

Oh well, it was worth a shot. Ok so this is the final system. I will hold off on buying a subwoofer until I have more money. Amp: Phoenix Gold R5.0:4 Speakers: Front- Phoenix Gold RSd6.5cs Rear fill- Phoenix Gold RSd6.5 Amp Kit: 4 Gauge e2 E1000 Scosche Baffle: Metra 81-4300 Sound...

How about these, instead of the 2-ways in the back? Kicker SSMB6 I know they are not flow blown subwoofers, but more like mini-woofers. If I lowpass them on the amp wouldn't they sound pretty decent? Also what gauge do I need? I picked 4 because sonicelectronix said it was rated from...

They actually are going to give me a discount on the speakers about 90 dollars plus shipping which is an awesome deal. I will order from these guys again.

I think I jumped the gun too soon, the picture shows a component set however if you read the description... I did need this, but I really doubt that these are the components. * Sensitivity: 88 dB * RMS Power Range : 5-60 Watts * Peak Power Handling: 120 Watts * Impedance: 4 Ohm * Frequency...

Ok so let's go with the Phoenix Gold speakers. Component system: Phoenix Gold RSd65cs and fill for the back Phoenix Gold RSd6.5 So these with the amp and accessories on the last page and this should be a good starting system? Is there anything else that I need?

Okay I've been looking and maybe component isn't that good to start out with. So I did some research and choose this system. Amp: Phoenix Gold R5.0:4 $94.99 Specs: * Peak Power Output: o 80 watts x 4 at 4 ohms o 125 watts x 4 at 2 ohms o 250 watts x 2 at 4 ohms * RMS Power Output: o 50...

Thank you MiniVanMan for your awesome help, I just don't think an active system would be good for a beginner. I tried reading the link in your signature and got lost after the fifth paragraph. So right now it is all about passive components. I don't know what I might be able to get out of $400...

So the maximum amount could possibly be raised to about $400. The only problem I see is that subwoofer. While I do like the tight bass, I do move around a lot for college and I don't think I could do that with a huge sub enclosure, unless you guys know of any way around that. As for the amp, I...

Hey all, I currently have a 2000 Acura Integra hatchback. The stock headunit is long gone and has been replaced with a Alpine-9820XM unit. I am looking to drop in some speakers to replace the crappy stock ones. I have no amp and don't plan on buying one because I just don't have the knowledge...
