Bought these on ebay; to try them. Honestly so far I like my pioneer TSDs that were in the last car i sold. Anyway, I'm going to give these a whirl for a while. Last car needed 5 channel amp, so i have a nice kicker zx 700.5 (75 rms) amp. I drove the tsd's fine with it, but these CDTs seem...

In a regular cab truck 1 set of components with a sub behind the seat should be plenty. Just my opinion. the RSDs are supposedly pretty good. decent price from sonic. can be had on ebay for 10 bucks less if you want to shop around. As noted above, install and wiring is easy, nothing fancy.

Just another vote for the pioneers. I have them and love them. I have a 75x4 amp on them front stage and they sound great. It's an auidobahn amp, so who knows real power. They sounded markedly better than the tsa 6.5s in my other car which was being powered by a 40x4 alpine. I've since...

Any other input on this? I love components for imaging, but worried about the power of an aftermarket jvc headunit only to power them...vs 4x6 polk DBs decent speakers, but close to floor. At least it's a small car, hyundai accent... joe

i know, but would stock HU power be enough for RSDs? I understand they are a little power hungry... Joe

Well helping my wife's cousin out with a stereo install. wrecked last car, they pulled stereo out. Circuit city wants arm and leg for re install so i agreed to do it for her. Here's what it will be. hyundai accent (small car) JVC head unit, rear 6.5s (kenwood) dual 10s with amp (MTX) in...

Like new. Used for 2 months. Combined my amps with a 5 channel. Has external/remote sub control Originally was 199, bought for 119 on closeout at crutchfield. 75 shipped and it's yours. 75x2, with a separate remote bass control...

Had this installed for about a year. Never abused. Was running pioneer comps in front and 5 1/4 in back. (then added another amp and sub) Too much stuff in the trunk, so cleaned it all up with a kicker 5 channel. So here is a great shape alpine mrp-f250 amp. I paid 200 from crutchfield...

i was thinking the kicker. even though its refurbished, should be best for money. thanks will probably order later... Joe

To power my car. Pioneer speakers. No power from head unit. Need amp for all channels 6.5 tsd comps 5 1/4 2 way rear 10" single sub. Need 5 channel amp. Have ebay coupon.... PLANET AUDIO VX6005 4 X 50 + 1 X 200 RMS @ 4 Ohms...

the other problem is i turn cars over every year or so. So not excited about putting big money into a system that the next guy will get. It's really not worth the hassle of uninstalling to me.

Well thanks for the ideas. 200 ish budget here though. There's enough room under the carpet for a single, relatively large amp. sure the pdx is nice and small. I can fit 2 of them in there, maybe, but can't afford to do that, or even the pdx 5. 2 regular sized amps won't fit, hence the...

Still doesn't help me with packaging though. 4 channel. so i could get 2 pdx....but that's clearly not in the budget for this car....1 really isn't... Joe

Car setup now...wife says ditch an amp, get 5 channel. pioneer ts a1720c front comp pioneer 4" 2 way rear fill 10 single sub pioneer amps. alpine mrp f250 40x2 rear fill, 100x1 sub blaupunkt 2x75 front comps. Sounds good. Replace 2 amps with a single.... Note: the front comps sounded...

Thanks for the guidance, listened to Kicker KS vs Pioneer TSA today. Kicker too harsh for me as well as most people it seems. Ordered teh TSD pioneers hopefully they're as smooth as the TSAs to my ears with a little more bump. I'll post when i get the system together. thanks again Joe
