Need some speakers

[tee 10+ year member]

I think you should have bought the 6.5

well i didn't buy them yet. im guessing bigger=better?

 

[kross 10+ year member]

Yep.

Also, I hope you noticed those are component speakers, meaning you'll have to make some holes in your door for the tweeters. It's easy enough to do, just make a 2" hole (approx.) in each door panel, and pop in the tweeter.

As for the crossovers, many people like to put them up front, close to the speakers. Like inside the door, or under the front seats. Personally, I just put them in the back, next to the amps, and run two sets of wires to the speakers. It's up to you.

There are already speakers on the top of the doors under the windows... are these not tweeters?

I guy on another thread recommended this amp to somone and it may be good for your purposes instaed of the one I suggested earlier.

Same power, but cheaper:

Profile CA600

$69 brand new

Should do great with the PG RSD's.

Awesome. Since my budget is low, saving money is a plus.

Set the high pass crossover filter to about 80 or 100Hz, whichever sounds better to you.

with the distrubution block, does it have to be a certain distance from the battery on the wire? Or can it be like close to the amps so i only have to run 2 shorter wires to the amps from that

Yes, get it close to the amps so you can save some wires. Have a long run of 0 or 4 gauge wire from the battery into the block. Get the block close to the amps, then run whatever wire is necessary from there.

So im going to go with:

5 1/4 RSD's

CA 600 (only because its cheaper and give out same power)

some type of distribution block

power wires for that distribution block

Do i need anything else?

Most likely they are, but we can't say for sure without seeing it.

RCA wires, speaker wire, remote turn-on wire.

right i need RCA wires. How much do those cost? also im guessing i need spliters since my HU only has one spot for RCA's

http://www.knukonceptz.com has good quality, inexpensive RCA's and splitters.

Is the CA 600 a good amp?
