Hey guys. I have a 2004 subaru wrx impreza wagon. Currently loaded with an alpine deck, 4 channel alpine mrp-f300 amp (4 channel), 5 1/4" Alpine type r components in the front, and Polk Audio 4" 2 way speakers in the rear. I am looking to hook the rear 4" speakers to the head unit (because they...

So, if im running 100 watt speakers on a 150 wpc amp, should my gain be higher than normal, or lower??...im assuming lower, but im not sure.

I like the idea of only powering only the fronts with an amp. I was thinking about getting this amp, because my friend can get me it for $100, and it would match my other alpine amp. But, would 150 watts per channel be too much power to run to my 100 watt front speakers? The $100 price tag is...

Looking to amp up my speakers, bc they sound terrible without power. I have Alpine type R's in the front, rated at 100 watts, and JBL's(dont remember the model number), rated at 45 watts in the rear. I'm very confused on what amp to get because of the power difference. Also, i have a sub in...

Neeeeevermind, figured it out, thank you crutchfield online tech support.

Im looking for an amplifier for my speakers. I have 100 watt speakers in the front and 35 watt in the rear(small 4" hole didnt give me much leeway for good rears). My setup right now is as follows: Pioneer DEH-something head unit, Alpine type R 1242 sub, Alpine MRP-M500 amp. I was wondering...

I guess thank you for the advice? But, do you usually make fun of people before you help them? I mean, everyone has their reasons, but i can't think of one that suffices that.

I find it weird that if your so knowledgeable, why couldn't you solve my problem. Im sure you stumbled upon my thread, http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=447499 if you really are such a smart know it all. I hope you spend less time making fun of people than you do installing your...

Great news, just got new speakers professionally installed. I tried to do it myself and couldn't get them to sound right, so i bit the bullet, and paid the big price for a professional. I got Alpine type R components in the front, at 5.25", and JBL GTO427 two-ways, in the rear, at 4". I...

So, are these Boston acoustics worth $110? And, what kind of amp should i get to power them. I decided im going to get nice front speakers and a cheap amp, and get average rears powered from the head unit amp. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...tics+SC55.html

Why do you even bother emailing these people back? To me it seems like the old expression applies here, "it takes two to tango."

Are you serious? From browsing several sites, i found some pretty good prices. Heres some highly reviewed Boston Acoustics for $110. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_19857_Boston+Acoustics+SC55.html

Sounds like a good idea, ive heard something similar to that before. Are speaker amps cheap? And how many hours of labor do you think it would be to be installed?

Hey guys, im pretty new here, and looking for some advice on new speakers. I have a 2004 Subaru WRX, which takes 4" speakers in the front, and 5 1/4" in the rear. I'm getting them professionally installed, because i don't feel like dealing with it and want their installation guarantee. I'm...

Thanks guys, i played with them some more today, and got them sounding a little better, but it still sounds like something is way off. When i put the fader to the front speakers which are stock, and havnt yet been touched, they sound good(by good, i mean how they should sound...so the shitty...
