What to pair with boston acoustic sr50's?

alright if i did that though would it sound sub par to people sitting in the rear, or would the fronts be enough to fill the whole car? The reason I ask is because right now with my stock speakers when people are in the back they often complain they cant hear anything over the sub while people in the front can hear the vocals and and everything beautifully.

Who's more important, the guy buying the equipment or the guy bitching in the back seat?

Ya your right and ill tell ya this only doing the fronts and leaving the rears alone would save me a good amount of money.

If you ran the front components off 100w + of ZED power you won't need rear fill in your car. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Just leave the stock rears on h/u power. You can fade them out when nobodys in the backseat.

Well if you still have that Zed amp by the time I buy which will be most likely next week sometime ill definately consider it. What kind of shipping do you use?

What kind of wiring kit would you guys reccomend? Is streetwires a good brand?

UPS....but I can use FedEx or USPS as well.

As long as it's Oxygen Free Copper it doesn't matter. It's all personal preference. This forum has a boner for knukonceptz.com wire.

Ya ups is good. How will I go about contacting you when im ready to buy? Should I just do it through the forums or you wanna pm me your email address?

I have one more question. The speakers I ordered the boston acoustic sr50s are 5 1/4 in size and the opening in my front door is 6.5 so im assuming id need some sort of an adapter. Would this work? Amazon.com: Scosche SAC656 1995-up Neon 5.25/6.5-Inch Jeep Speaker Adapter - Pair: Electronics If not can you direct me to something that would? The vehicle is an 06 hyundai sonata. I know those are for jeep but if its the same size i figure it might work.

you can make them out of mdf or use something similar to this.......

Walmart.com: Scosche Convertible 5.25-6.5" Universal Speaker Adapter: Auto Electronics

they should work fine if not they are made of ABS so you can trim them easily..

check parts-express.com they have some too..

why did you buy 5.25 when you needed 6.5?

 

[rbtrucking 10+ year member]

because the 6.5 boston acoustic sr60's were too deep and wouldn't fit in my door.

Hey in the event that you dont still have that amp when I gather the money to buy is focal any good? I was looking at the Focal Solid 2 2-Channel Amplifier 75 watt rms @ 4 ohms. What do you guys think about it?

 

[Bob Saget]

ZED > that particular Focal

.....but it's a very nice amplifier imo

 

[rbtrucking 10+ year member]

so im guessing that focal would be much better than the boston acoustic gt275?
