Hello everyone, first time post here but hoping I can get some insight and direction. I know very little about speakers, amps, subs and LOC in general, but I know wiring and cars pretty well. I feel like my factory system in my TLX is way under-powered (don't we all) and want some more oomph, but not sure how I should go about doing it. Details follow.
Vehicle: 2019 Acura TLX A-Spec (has navi and ELS system)
Music taste: Rock, some rap/hip hop/pop, 80s, Audiobooks, kids songs...
Current in possession of:
1x Alpine SWR-1243D Type-R mounted in a large single ported box
2x Alpine SWE-1043 Type-Es mounted in a smaller sealed box
1x Rockford Fosgate Power 501bd mono amp
1x Alpine MRV-V500 5-channel amp
1x AudioControl LC6i
Absolutely no wiring
Wat do.... no really should I actually attempt to wire up factory speakers to the V500 through LC6, and use the Type-R with the 501bd? The amount of work seems....daunting and finding a wiring diagram wouldn't exactly be easy. Should I just run the single sub and amp I was planning to add bass?
Any suggestions would be huge, as I would really like more depth to my system. It can get decently loud, and the mids are pretty good in the doors but I know I lack bass and fullness. The 2 1043s actually fit better against the back seat then the 1 1243 does, but I don't really use my trunk anyways so...
