[QUOTE="mgiara, post: 8535268, member: 612514"] Hey all, I know I posted something similar in the past but every time I try and find my old posts, I get a forum error. I want to replace my front speakers first, then whatever else you guys suggest for as close to a budget SQ setup as I can get. I say close to a budget SQ because I know the two words are antonyms. My research shows the ID CTX series 6.5's as a solid choice but they seem to be discontinued. (I can still find them) I also see the Hertz SV165.1 as a popular choice. The 2013 Altima fits shallow mounts, but some deeper research shows people are getting more mount depth by placing the speakers in the shell of the stock speakers. [URL="http://www.nissanclub.com/forums/2013-nissan-altima-discussion-2-5-3-5/331975-2013-altima-door-speaker-install.html"]This[/URL] is the best guide online for the install. The speaker housings can be seen about a third down the page. I cannot find any information on how much depth they're getting by using the stock housings. I suppose if I can find something in the 2+" range I'll be fine, but pushing to 2 3/4 might be cutting it too close. I also want to amplify the front speakers as the stock speakers run at 2 Ohms, and also because I want the additional power. Amp suggestions? (probably a 200W RMS 2-Channel?) I also think I need components as the stock system has tweeters in the dash to accompany the door 6.5's I'm open to (and would like to) buy a signal processor, but not sure how I would tune it. Installation-wise, sky is the limit. I have no fears short of large scale custom fabrication. Budget-wise I'd like to spend around $200 on speakers. I feel I'll quickly see diminishing returns without a processor past $250. I can stretch that if I can justify it. (Not past $300 please) I have installed MLV, Luxury Liner Pro, and felt tape (on clips and what not) in the doors, and plan on continuing to the rest of the car incrementally. I don't think I want to spend more than $200 on an amp? DSP I know will be a big chunk. Can I get one for less than $500? Next step will be amplified 6x9's in the rear deck and when I get the money, a 13w7 in the trunk to replace my L715 [/QUOTE]
