[QUOTE="DRBOOM, post: 8674448, member: 676005"] Hey mate! Since you have a caravan, see if you can put the biggest speakers that can fit in the required space up front. The rest of the speakers is up to you as you may like larger speakers at the back to give you that 'background sound, whilst you can chat up front. Would definitely recommend going components up front as per the sales person. Just remember the general rule with subwoofers and speakers is 2:1 so whatever amp you decide to run with speakers, a monoblock class D amp should be at least twice the power of the speakers, :graduate: I would certainly recommend the CLASS D amplifiers, that is full range and monobloc as they are much easier on the vehicles electrical system and with todays technology, they sound as good as the class AB amps. JL Audio / Hertz makes some pretty small full range CLASS D amps and they are great sounding amps, but If you have good old AB amps, then no point buying other amps unless you wanna change. Remember, its your ride so you ultimately decide what you wish to purchase and how you plan to place them around your vehicle. :fro: . By the way, I am running a 4:1 in my ride, 200rms speaker power, to 800rms subwoofer power but with remote gain, I usually have it very low so the bass presence is always there at low volumes. This is possible due to the remote bass gain ( which is a voltage gain on the amp to provide a better signal) Hope this is helpful to you mate! [ATTACH]5267._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
