[QUOTE="stephenp_, post: 8196958, member: 658790"] Im looking into getting my first sub/ speaker setup and I need pointers and advice before I go invest in a system. I know just some basics, like a 4 channel amp means you can run four different speakers/subs on it, splitting the wattage in fourths. Only other sub related thing i know is that underppwering them is just as bad as overpowering them. Other than that I am not speaker savvy. I Joined the forum for advice on the setup I have in mind. Currently have a pioneer DEH 660 Bluetooth HU and stock speakers. Their is nowhere near enough bass, treble, or tone in my car for me. I have a little 87 325i convertible and 26 year old speakers just aint doing it. Im thinking of adding 2 12's, and two 6x9's up front. (ill need tweeters too right?) I think im gonna need around 3k watts to run it all, maybe more. Im hoping to have a full pioneer setup, but their kinda pricey for what they are. (i know their a good brand.) But, if i can find better equipment at a more reasonable price, I wont hesitate. I have no problem with lesser known audio companies either. sorry for the shpeel but i wanted to give as much backround as i could so you guys could help me as best as possible. Thanks to anyone who reads, and more so to anyone who helps. [/QUOTE]
