[QUOTE="stewartfan, post: 8093825, member: 624918"] What's up? I'm gonna start off with the fact that when it comes to car audio, and audio in general, I'm pretty noob, but at the same time, I'm not that stupid. With that said, I'm looking for better sound quality in my car. Currently, I have a Pioneer DEH-7300BT, with Infinity Reference 6032cf (60W RMS/2ohm) 6.5s in the front, and 9632cf (100W RMS/2ohm) 6x9s in the rear. What I was told, is that upgrading the speakers isn't the next step for what I've got, but instead, I'd be better off amping them. A couple questions about that, though: Amping the speakers doesn't remove any of the bass response from the speakers, right? I'm thinking about just trying the amp first, and if I'm happy with the quality, just leaving it. However, a sub is a possibility, I just don't like the idea of taking all that space in my trunk, plus, I don't like loud bass in a car. If I were to go that route, though: Can I run a sub and all 4 speakers from a single 5-channel amp? Sealed or ported enclosure for good, clean bass, NOT loud bass? 10 or 12" sub? I was thinking a Kicker ZX700.5 amp, any other suggestions? Then, for the sub, I'm thinking I'll stick with Kicker. Any suggestions on that? Thanks for any advice in advance! [/QUOTE]
