[QUOTE="michoholic, post: 8726918, member: 681753"] Hello folks, Just bought my first audio stuff for in my car. So i am a total noob in this. I've been searching for some answers to some questions, but ended up more confused the more i searched.... So i decided to make a thread here. And hope to get an answer also more suited to my specs. Short spec list: 2 Emf 6.5 75w rms speakers (4ohm) digital design ss4b 1000w (4ohm) rms 4 channel amp 50mm2 ofc tinned copper power cable Probably the amplifier is a bit overpowerd for my needs.. But i rather have a bit more headroom than run out of it. Now i am searching for a 10'' subwoofer and i am guessing a JL Audio 10w1v2 would do. The subwoofer is 300w rms and the amp channel is 250w rms. Now the confussions begin on the internet... Some say that you need more amp power than sub power other say its the other way around. So what is true? And how should i run such an sub with this amp? I rather save 2 channels to add some tweeters and/or midrange speakers later on. Then i also got some questions about enclosures. The Emf 6.5 speakers don't have alot of specs i can find. I cannot run them in the doors or fit them nicely in free air. As it is a rare 80's car i don't wan't to ruin original hard to find interior parts of the car. Also i don't want the boxes to take to much space/weight but want to get the most range and quality out of what ive got. So best bet is to make some nice closed boxes for them? But how big should they be? pretty much same goes for the JL 10'' sub. Sound qaulity comes before big oomf. I don't know anything about audio so i don't know what is acheviable and reasonable. Any input, info, advice and commantary on/or to better the setup is welcome. [/QUOTE]
