Need new components

[Trancer 10+ year member]

Well im looking to replace the stock stereo in my new extended cab silverado. I totalled my Titan so I have to start over.

Ill be going with the Pioneer Premier 980 deck.

Amp: Clarion APA4320

Continuous Average Power Output 320 Watts (80 Watts × 4 Channels into 4 Ohms 20Hz-20kHz @ 0.05% THD)

Typical 2-Ohm Stereo 115 Watts × 4 Channels @ 0.2% THD

Typical 2-Ohm Bridged Power 230 Watts × 2 Channels @ 0.2% THD

Bass Extender Control 0～15dB @ 45Hz

Price range: $200

So I was thinking of the following:

MB Quart DSF 216

DLS MS6A

Polk Momo's (forgot the model)

Sundown Comps

Any ideas?

Honestly I was just going to chime in with that suggestion!

That is an awesome set, and for the price you can get em at, even better!!

Those sound great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha thanks. I didnt think I was going to get that, but I thought, what the hell. Try anyway right? Sure enough, I grabbed them. I have always wanted a set of Focals. They will be here tomorrow. Glad the seller is from Texas like I am.

thats sweet that you wont have to wait, nice, tell us how they sound, IMO i like Focal and eventhough they have alum. tweets that isnt to hot with alot of members, i dont find them harsh, very smooth sound to me

How many watts can I throw at these? Trying to figure out if I want to bridge my 4 channel amp and give it some power or stay with the 2 channel. Dont want to blow them.

Anyone want to chime in on how much I should feed these? Should I bridge my 4 channel amp or leave it 2 channel?

i say try them out at 4 chan and if they sound like they could use more then bridge the amp.

 

[tbasile1 10+ year member]

Well it says 60w RMS, but im sure they can handle a lil more

What is your amp bridged at 4ohms?

 

[Trancer 10+ year member]

Not for sure. I only have the specs listed above

Nice catch! You got a better set of comps than those you had listed for cheap!

I just got a 2000 Silverado. What size are the front stock speakers? I will be putting comps in it ASAP.
