ok this is what i had 6.5 Sony Xplods front and 6X9 Sony Xplods in rear. and some lower end panasonic HU. Now i just ordered a type R in a 2.0 Cubic Foot box with a

Hifonics TXi7508 which replaces my Magnum Shit Subs from CircuitCity so now i want some speakers for front and back i know about the PG RSDs and im looking at those but im a person who is OCD about having stuff the same brand so i was looking a some Alpine or Hifonics components for front and a crunch or hifonics amp to power this plus rear fill(Which I heard you dont rele need) So just want some feedback on my situation pretty much anything is going to be an upgrade from the sony's

I have a Honda Accord Sedan 1998 if that helps

Get over your OCD and buy the PGs.

so PG RSDs need about 100w of power should i do anything in the back or should i just leave the sonys as rear fill??? or should i get some other components in the back..

leave the speakers in the back or no rearfill. its up to you but i wouldnt install another component back there.

i would give those PGs at least 120, closer to 150 if you can

 

[coledawg 10+ year member]

ok sounds good now for HU...

i always hear great things about the Alpine 9887, but its pretty expensive. I like Eclipse myself, I have an Eclipse CD3000....you could go for a 5000 or better used, or for the new 5100 or 7100

never heard anything bad about those head units. the only gripe i have with mine is that there is no pause button for the cd. its an inconvenience, but not a whole big thing to worry about
