[QUOTE="klingcam, post: 7036656, member: 626758"] Right now I'm working with a stock system in my 2002 Honda Odyssey. Most of my time is spent carting around my mini-me's. But when they're not in the car, I want some decent tunes, and the stock head unit and speakers aren't cutting it: as soon as I start to crank it, the bass is non-existent. Not looking to rattle any windows or my license-plate frame, but need an upgrade. I'm thinking of the Kenwood KDC-X494. Definitely want to replace the rear 6 1/2's with some decent coaxials (that can put out some bass), but thinking of leaving the front door/dash component stock setup. It seems like a big hassle trying to get those tweeters and their wiring out. Would like to hear anyone's opinion(constructive) on perhaps getting only a 2-chan amp(maybe 60W/ch rms into 4 ohms) and powering only the rear speakers. Or, is 4-chan the only way to go? Also, any recommendations on the amp and rear coaxials? Again, this is essentially a soccer-mom van except I'm a dad, and my kids don't play soccer, so I'm not going big-budget on this. Any feedback would be great. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
