Hey guys. I just got a 2000 Honda Prelude and I'm planning on switching out all the speakers especially since the front-right door 6.5in blew yesterday.
I'm looking at Alpine Type-R speakers for the front (2 6.5" + 2 1" tweeters) and the back (2 6"x9").
I have a 50wx4 Panasonic head unit (which I might switch out for a newer Alpine version) soon. Should I plan on powering the new speakers with just the head unit and then get an amp for the sub I will be adding eventually? This would make wiring a lot simpler, but I was just wondering if there were big advantages to powering all speakers/subs with a large amplifier.
