    front comps and sub on mazda3 hatch - need some help w/ equipment

    Thanks Bubble. I was leaning towards the PAC. Misfit, I'm still considering the setup you suggested above and am torn between that and an active setup. Your setup is about $580, and an active will run me about $750, which is close enough to my budget that I'm willing to spend the extra 50...

    front comps and sub on mazda3 hatch - need some help w/ equipment

    Misfit, what do you think of this idea. Using the Kenwood to power only the fronts in an active setup and maybe a DSC2150 for the sub. I could do something like MLI-65 mids and some silk or textile tweeters. MLI-65 [MLI-65] - $27.00 : Mach 5 Audio or maybe one of these sweet looking...

    front comps and sub on mazda3 hatch - need some help w/ equipment

    I'm sure that amp is really good, hence the big $$ for it. Am I going to be taking a big step down if I do something like MB QUART DSC4125 that misfit suggested? Looking at the MB Quart, I can bridge 2 channels to run a sub and then run the speakers from the other 2....so that $130 amp would...

    front comps and sub on mazda3 hatch - need some help w/ equipment

    Hey guys, I have an 07 mazda 3 hatch and am planning out the sound system. I'm keeping the stock head unit, adding a 10" sub and replacing the front components (stock). I've thought about aftermarket HU, but I'd rather keep the stock for a low key setup...years ago my stuff got stolen after...
