1999 Grand Marquis Audio Questions

[Garrett22]

Hey everyone, I've got a few questions about setting up a audio system for my newly acquired Grand Marquis. The links of the products I plan on buying are at the bottom of post. My questions are does the amplifier have enough power to run subwoofers safely? In the future will I be able to hook up component speakers to the amp or are two channels and the power provided not enough? What else do I need to correctly install the system? 1500watt alpine type r 500rms

Thanks in advance, Garrett

The amplifier will provide about 325rms watts to each subwoofer. I hope u planned on gettin another amp for those speakers. Because u can't run the subwoofers + the speakers off that same amplifier.

And u'll probably need all the wires.

So if I used a rockford fosgate 1800watt amp with 600rms would it work well with the subwoofer or is the 200 watts that much of difference. At a later date I would need to buy a low wattage amp for my component speakers right.

Alright I think what I've picked all works together, but could someone with more expertise tell me if it works and any suggestions to make the system sound better.

Kenwood 1800w mono amp 500RMS

Pioneer Deck

Alpine 12" 1500w sub 500RMS

Alpine 12" sub enclosure

Thanks, Garrett

Surely someone can answer my question. Please I'm in quite a rush.

id give that sub at least 600-700w RMS....

Could anyone please point me in the direction where I can get custom sub boxes or sub boxes that are custom fit for a Grand Marquis or Crown Victoria.

Thanks, Garrett

Will the wiring kit I purchased work to connect my deck to my amp and my sub to my amp.
