I just got a FX-45 and was thinking of putting this system in it,

Orion

2 Orion H2 15.2 Subs in box in trunk

2 Orion P5.2 in front doors

2 Orion P6.2 in back doors

2 Orion 2500D Amps 1 for each sub

1 Orion 8004 Amp for speakers

JL Audio

2 JL W7 subs in box in trunk

2 JL ZR650-CSi 1 in each back door

2 JL ZR570-CSi 1 in each front door

2 JL e1800D amps for subs

2 JL 450/4 amps for speakers

MTX

2 MTX Thunder Dome-Axial TDX6903's in front doors

2 MTX Thunder Axe High-End Component TXC6.1 in the back doors

2 MTX Thunder 9515-44 in a box in the trunk

1 MTX Thunder 92001 Amp for subs

1 MTX Thunder 8502 Amp for back speakers

1 MTX Thunder 7402 Amp for front speaker

The head unit is Pioneer Premier DEH-P8MP and the EQ is Pioneer DEQ9200.

I heard Audiobahn was better then all those though, could someone help me out? I'm having the Bose system ripped out for this.

 
audiobahn no, i would personally not go with ALL one company for an entire set up, and throw in about an extra thosand for electrical upgrades IF you can find a HO alternator for youre fx wich i doubt.

 
I can spend 5 g's if I want, I just want a nice system feel me? Are JL Audio 12W7 for SQL also? Are they good? I read alot of good reviews.

 
You do know you don't need all that power right? And the only reason one should run one entire companys products is if you are sponsered.

If you have the money the W7 would be a good option. Do you care about blowing your money? Becuse there are cheaper alternatives with equal performance.

 
Like I said, I'll pay extra to hear 2Pac, Nas, Jay-Z, Bone Thugz, Beanie Segil, M.Jackson, Sam Cooke, etc. at its best.
Maybe you misunderstood my post. EQUAL performance, cheaper alternative.

All the JL equipment you listed is good equipment. As are the Orion amps. The MTX 9500's a spl woofers. Audiobahn is below all of them IMO.

 
Ok, question then, would you recommend using all JL audio? Or should I use just there subs and someone elses components?
Well sure. Nothing wrong with the JL equipment listed. It is great equipment just pricy. So if you have the money and do not care about it go for it:thumbsup:

 
What do You recommend, this is my first car and my first major change. I'm still waiting for my rims. If I do get those JL W7's, can I use them for regular use? Alpine CDA-9855(new head unit, dealt with nothing but Alpine headunits my whole life). Is that EQ I listed good? The Pioneer DEQ9200 or should I get a different one?

 
W7's are meant for normal use. As for the EQ, I don't think an extra processing unit will be needed. If you purchase a High End head unit, it would normally come with all the EQ settings a daily driver could need. If you want further control beyond the HU's controls then a simple 7-10 band eq would work well.

Also only one 4 channel amp will be needed. You don't need a component set in the rear of your vehicle. Simple Coaxil speakers will perform fine for the rear fill.

And have you thought about electrical upgrades? Like a new battery for starters.

Battery- Optimum Red Cap, Im gonna cancel the EQ. I want a Dual encloser for the W7's, a nice looking one like the Audiobahn ABP122N box, know any?
