Thinking of a new system.

Alpine CDA-9830

and speakers, either

Alpine SPS-171A or

Alpine SPR-176A or

Boston Acoustic FS60.

Good idea or not and which speakers would be the best?

Also what happens to the steering wheel controls for the stereo?

steering wheel controls will be disabled

you will have to buy a special converter to get them to work

P.S

well first of all there is a converter to keep your sterring wheel controls but it will only work if your deck has a remote.

as far as the speakers are concerned do you plan on running your speakers with an amp?

If you are not going to use an amp use the type s

If you are going to use an amp use the type R

No amp

and am now thinking of the CDA-9831

front... SPS-171A

Rear... SPS-170A

Maybe later a MRD-M301 but do not know which mono sub speaker to use that will fit under my rear seat.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

I bought the Alpine CDA-9833. It sounds great.

Any suggestions on what speakers to use that would fit into the stock holes in the doors?

Also, where do most people put the infrared sender for the new steering wheel remote unit(PAC SWI-X) and the new chime?

Thanks in advance
