Looking for better sound in stock 2019 impala just bought from rental agency. The stock speakers are suprisingly not bad after eqing them. But cant compare to having a decent system.
Im thinking of doing a whole audio system upgrade, nothing crazy. Just new head unit, 5 channel amp, 1 sub, component speakers in front, rear door speakers, and lots of dynamat so it doesnt rattle.
had a 5ch system in my last car and it was great. But Over time my last car developed headliner rattle from constant bass. Had a lot of dynamat on the doors and some in the trunk, but rattle pops up anywhere. Dont want that in this car. Want to do it right.
should i do a whole system upgrade or just add a sub and amp. Is there a way to keep head unit stock and just upgrade the speakers and add a sub? Or should i just upgrade the speakers? Or do it all?
my budget for gear is maybe 1-2k nothing crazy. 1k max for install dont want to go crazy just something nice and simple and reliable. I mainly play hip hop (trap music) so i need good bass but i also want good sq.
What are some good brands? I really like jl audio subs and infinity kappa speakers. But i know there are new brands like skar audio, subdown audio that are popular on these kind of forums. Is it worth going with a more mainstream brand or not?
i saw a really nice 5 channel amp im thinking of building system around, but its pricey. Its called the audicontrol lc1300. Im sure its good but is it worth buying over something a little cheaper? How is skar audios amps? What do you guys think?
