6.5" Comp Set + Amp Suggestion - $300-$400 Budget

[Bobfig 10+ year member]

i wouldn't get the nx4 amp. there was some reviews that was saying its not that great. look at "Precision Power P900.4".

as for getting the ck's or the rk's, i'd say get the ck's because they are more sq oriented and the rk's are more spl. not only that take a look at the mounting depth and the rk's are 2 3/4" deep so that may make it difficult to install. a

for the sub i would say a skar IVX-10/12 d2ohm in a nice ported enclosure ported to around 28-30hz

In my experience the NX4 is a fine amplifier. The P900.4 is out of stock nationally and there's no ETA for new arrivals.

I think that I will take yours and "princ3cmo"'s advice and save my money and see what the components sound like first - coming from a supporting vendor as well as plenty of experience (given your high number of posts - all I have to go by), I value your opinion - as well as the others whom have commented.

I think I will stick with my original plan:

Component Speakers: Massive Audio CK6V ($170)

Amplifier: Boston Acoustics GT-2125 ($130)

Wiring Kit: Kolossus Fleks 4 Gauge Amplifier Installation Kit ($74 w/ S/H)

Install Kit Tools: Scosche TK12 ($15)

Grand Total of roughly $400

I hope to order sometime this week!

Thanks "trumpet" I will check the mounting depth (I got off a forum that the depth is 3" for the fronts but I will try to verify)

Also.......

With doing only the following:

Component Speakers: Massive Audio CK6V ($170)

Amplifier: Boston Acoustics GT-2125 ($130)

Wiring Kit: Kolossus Fleks 4 Gauge Amplifier Installation Kit ($74 w/ S/H)

Will I have to do the "big 3" wiring upgrade? B/c "Kicker Big 3 Kit" is $120!

Massive CK6V is "RMS: 260 watts per set / 130 watts each side "

I would do the big 3 but don't buy the kit. Just get like 10ft of 4 or 0 gauge and termanals and do your own for around $50.
