[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 7270516, member: 549629"] First off, welcome to the forum. The answer to your first question, about if there are right and wrong ways to set up your head unit, or if its just what sounds best, is both. Some settings, like xover settings, have a range of acceptable settings that boil down to personal preference, but once that range is deviated from, *could* cause damage to the speakers. The answer to your second question is, it depends. (Im really helpful, right? lol) There is no right or wrong answer to should you amp your front speakers before getting a sub, or vice versa. Some of that depends on your stock system, some depends on your budget or goals, and much of it depends on personal preference. Should you buy a red car, or a black one? To me, there is one right answer to that question, but to the others the right answer is something different. The best way to know what YOUR right answer is, is to educate yourself on what's available, what you like, and what it takes to achieve those goals. You IM'd me and basically asked why your thread hasn't gotten any replies, I can answer that. Your questions are too general. You are basically asking us to get you up to speed when you haven't even started the engine yet. most people dont like trying to educate someone on so many subjects, all at once. You are better off reading threads here for a while, and gaining the knowledge to hone your questions down to more specific queries. Post asking 'should I amp my front speakers?' or 'should I go with this subwoofer' will be much more likely to yield replies than 'can you guys explain almost everything to me here and now'. The more specific your questions, the more replies you will get, and the better/more specific those answers will be. Hope this helps you get started. [/QUOTE]
