[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8597379, member: 650438"] If you dont have any plans on getting signal to your amp, the whole setup wont ever work. lmao. Paying that much money for a JL 4 channel is a waste of money if you are on a budget imo. You can get other amps that do more power for less. Also if you plan on using the stock head unit with new speakers, Thats gonna sound like garbage as well. Stock head units have their own built in EQ curve to compensate for how sh*tty and cheap the stock speakers are. Even if you have all the settings on flat, its not really flat. Meaning whatever speaker you put in, is subjected to the sh*tty EQ and poor low quality digital audio convertors (DAC) of the stock head unit. TLDR, good chance your speaker swap will sound worse than stock or barely get any improvement. Solution, add a digital sound processor, not some audiocontrol garbage. Something like a rockford DSR-1 that can really make the biggest impact on how good your system will sound. Its the tuning and install that matters. You can have sh*tty stock speakers on an amp with a DSR-1 and you'll be destroying EVERY super expensive set of speakers you can get on the market on a stock head unit. Thats just how massivly powerful a sound processor can be. its basically THE most single biggest sound quality upgrade you can get if you get a proper tune with it. Speakers, amps etc... None of that even remotely comes close. Thats too steep of a price. should be half of that. They are ***[COLOR=black]r[/COLOR]aping you with that price and they dont even have the courtesy to give you a reacharound either. [/QUOTE]
