What to buy?

[Topaz]

Any recommendatins for a cheapish 2ch amp and a 10-12" sub in a box?

cheers...

Hey mate,

Have a look at these two, might be the products you are looking for.

Product 1

Product 2

The first one would be nice, the second one better as it is higher powered and will give you more output.

Either way the both come with, sub, amp, box and cables.

Look ok, whats the prices on Fusion gear? I thought it was fairly expensive....

[Chris Rogers]

not too bad actually. I have the price list here if anyone is interested.

Has anybody had any problems with depth when putting splits into the front doors..

i was told that alpine wont fit.. due to the fact that i want my window to come all the way down without hittin back of speakers..

And i dont want to have to put in massive spacers that make my inner pannel part to stick out..

What brands would fit?? (depth wise)

Hey guys

Just wondering what the pick is out of JBL and mtx or are they much the same.

I didn't want to splash out and go the real high end gear but want to spend a bit more than say your pioneer or kenwoods.

I'm talking speakers subs and amps..

Lastly, what do you guys think of installs at places like wow, strathfield of JB?

[Chris Rogers]

your in brissy I see. leave those alone. JB is contracted and its a mixed bag (most have 17y/o with little idea.) wow depends on the shop. SCR - forget it.

fire me a PM if you want a decent job done. (click sig)

Hey all. Im after a nice and simple decent system. Im only going to go for speakers and no sub woofer. Im basically after decent all round quality. Im thinking of the Pioneer Pro series 6" splits component speakers for the front and then a half decent 6" rear speaker and sound deaden the front doors and get a decent amplifier. Would this be alright???

Hi there, first time post as I just joined (buying jakegts's R33 on the weekend) and I'm looking for a headdeck to suit.

After a single DIN, but the problem I'm having selecting one is choosing one that can run two amps (one for splits front and rear, and one for sub) but also has RCA inputs, that can be selected as a source.

The main reason is that I'm looking at something like this for the second DIN slot, as my iPod is absolutely chockers of music. I currently have an FM transmitter for my work car, but quite frankly, this just doesn't cut it.

Anyone know of any headdecks that can do this that are quite nice? I'm more an Xplod person myself, however I'm willing to switch camps (no double entendre intended) if the right headunit is found.

Thanks for all help in advance!

HOT POOP! How much are they?

Additionally: My apologies for not putting this in the right thread, I'll learn.

Im researching some splits for car and also headunit. I would like to stick to clarion as i can get discounts through them.

SRS1752HX

http://clarion.com/au/en/products/2006/aud...9306870302.html

SRS1686

http://clarion.com/au/en/products/2006/aud...9306870100.html

Should i spend the extra for the HX model or will the 1686 be plenty?

Also,

Is there a clarion headunit with 4channel output + subwoofer output? Cant seem to find one with sub out..

Cheers

[Adelaideprosound]

Discounts thru Clarion, hmm that sounds nice. I didnt know they dealt with the public direct.

I dont think they do, i'll be getting them through a friend.

How about this clarion headunit? Its the only one i can find with 3 pre-outs in their range

DX766MP

Or would a pioneer/alpine unit be better for the same amount of money?

Cheers

[Adelaideprosound]

How much you paying for that Clarion headunit and ill tell you if your getting a decent discount.

Mind you that headunit is HOT, my demo car has one in it.

I am keen for some decent advice on the speakers. I have all of the other components for the system and now I need to match some decent speakers so I can get it all installed in one go.

Here is what I have so far:

- Kicker KX200.2 Amp (for the sub)

- Kenwood 200W RMS 12" sub

- JVC KW-AVX700 head unit (http://www.jvc-australia.com/JVC/client/c_...&prodID=173)

As far as speakers go the guys on the forum have convinced me to go with 6.5" for the front and back.

I don't really want to spend more than $200 on a set of front splits and the backs don't need to be anything too flash right? The speakers will be running off the head unit so I need to find speakers that are going to match the HU right?

My original plan was to go with a set of Alpine SPE-17CS ($138) 35W RMS splits for the front and a cheaper set of Alpines for the back. I am not too sure of the output quality of the HU (20W RMS?? is what I was told) and have been told that the above Alpines will certainly match it well. This is my main concern as I don't want to waste money on better speakers unless the HU is gunna have the power to drive them.

Anyway guys, give me your advice on the above. Would you go with the Alpines? What others would you suggest? Don't want to spend more than $300 all up for front and backs.

Brands and model numbers would also be a big help as there are so many different types out there.

Thanks guys...

Hello,

Currently in the process of choosing an amplifies and due to time constraints have to make a choice now or i lose a chance of a good deal.

The subwoofer amps im deciding between are:

- US AUDIO USA554-220Z - 4 x 50w & 1 x 220w RMS + sub w/ box

- Clarion APX1300 - 1 x 300w RMS @ 4ohm

- Jaycar Response AA-0424 - 500w RMS x 1 @ 4ohm

the US Audio amp+sub package is 2nd hand and selling for the same price as brand new clarion/jaycar amp.

Im leaning towards the US Audio amp w/ sub due to its low price but im not sure if i will be wasting money.

Any help will be great

Thanks
