Just bought a Honda S2000 need help

[Maxipads 10+ year member]

So i recently sold my truck so i have no use for my BL 18 anymore.. Which is now for sale if anyone wants it locally with box. But i have never really looked into Headunits or speakers since my truck came with them already installed when i bought it.. And the stock Honda speakers **** wang and i dont have an auxillary.. So i was thinking about what tweeters i should get and what headunit and what amP? As for the sub stage im debating on a IDQ10 or Sticking with FI Q 10.. I don't want crazy bass anymore i drive a little *** car with little to no room. And i have an AQ 2200 sitting on my floor mocking me so ill use that for the sub. I just need help with the speaker setup?? My budget is like 500 for the speakers and headunit/amp

There are custom boxes made for the s2000.....

Go Tuning Unlimited

Not cheap, but maybe he could do it himself (or get someone to fab one locally).

what can you do for mids/midbass? 6.5s fit?

 

[Maxipads 10+ year member]

Yeah 6.5's fit its what i have now i believe but it sounds like the ****** paper on the coan is ripped and sounds like crap

Any ideas anyone?? i have a small idea on some speakers but have no clue on headunits. I wish i could have an in dash but thats not finna happen..

I would sell that amp. It is way more power than you'll need for an sq oriented sub. I'm not sure what they sell for so I'm going to guess 200 which will bring your budget to 700.

Either sub you mentioned will work well. And as far as amps go look into a nice 5 amp. Jl hd 900/5 or slash 500/5 ID 5800 or even a Memphis belle. Preferably the baby belle. Those would work well too. As far as mids and highs go I'm not sure what would fit depth wise so you'll have to ask somebody with experience on an s2000

Would it really matter if i ran this amp only using like 500watts? i really don't care about space i don't drive with anything.. This amp gives me a boner..ill just get more money because i knowone day im slap my self for selling this amp.

Hey if you love your amp keep it and just run at a lower ohm load. It's good to have bedroom anyway. Maybe look into the 4 channel aq amp to go with? I'm a fan of all my amps matching

Im was thinking of getting a 4 chan AQ amp to match but i just have no idea what to get for a front stage.. I think the previous owner put in some JL tweeters that sounds like ****...

Haha thanks man its a fun *** car to drive.. when i hit 9k rpms i get all fuzzy inside hahaha..

But on the front stage note.. A lot of the people on the forum have boners for FOCAL-165KR2.. and they said they install with ease.

Those have a top mounting depth of 3-1/8" and a bottom mounting depth of 2-7/8"..
