[QUOTE="shpongled, post: 4651462, member: 593784"] Hey guys... it's me again [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif[/IMG][IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] I got a decent discount so I went for Alpine... Here's what I got installed now: Alpine CDE-9882Ri Focal Access 165 A1 After 10-20 mins of listening I found this to be completly true: Got some great "sonic scene" of the music, but after going above "21" on the volume meter the midbass sounds distorted and bad... but bellow that it's just amazing!! So I'm now starting to save money for the amp... it'll take some 3-4 months, but I can wait [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] I want to buy a decent one, since the HU & speakers are pretty decent (imho) and the goal is to use their full potential [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] Also, about the space - helotaxi mentioned there are small amps available on the market... I don't know is it possible to store an amp somewhere up front, like in the glove-box or such? I guess a small one is enough since the speakers are 120W peak? Here's some info on the speakers: [B]Focal Access 165 A1[/B] 2-way separate Tweeter TN 44, aluminum inverted dome tweeter Separate Crossover 12/12dB/octave (4,8kHz) with adjustable tweeter 3 level settings Max. power handling 120W Nom. power handling 60W Sensitivity (2,8V/1m) 92dB Frequency response 60Hz-20KHz Every suggestion is very welcome guys, and thanks a bunch for the help so far!!
