what to do with my stereo

[youngJAY]

i plan on getting a system soon also. i just need a head unit which is probably going to be one of those flip out ones not sure the brand yet and i have 2 old school vipor amps...u know the compony that makes the alarms......4got how many watts and 2 12's my uncle is giving me out of his regal, and ill replace the stock speakers also....sound good?

what kind of speakers should go up front? and in the back?

Like 2 way or 3 way? I don't really care what brand as long as they are of midway quality... just wondering what will sound the best.

I got am amp free from a buddy... so now i just need a head unit, speakers and the wiring.

what i got

Hey I have a Panasonic CQ C1333U (http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-CQ-C...&s=electronics)

I like the actual dial for volume. Oh, and the blue button in the centre of the deck is nice, too. The sound is decent and the remote is a tad redundant.

I have four Sony Xplod 6.5 speakers installed. No subs, no amps.

I use my car for actual everyday-everything stuff. My trunk is always full so, no room for a sub.

One thing I may try is to install "baffles" behind each speaker to improve bass. I installed "XTC Baffles" in my company work truck behind the 6.5 inch speakers in the doors and the sound is much improved now.

ok... so for this particular setup... 4 of the same speakers will work. sweet!


I can't wait. I found boss speakers on this one website for $25 per pair. I don't need premium, just fresh and new


Thanks man!

will I need a special 'insert' for the dash so one of these will fit? I may hit up fry's electronics by my house sometime because they have every kit I could think of for installing head units

[lokuputha]

What ever u do, try to get a head unit thats fits out black plastic dash. Those shiny silver ones just scream steal me!!!!

Nakamichi CD300,400,500



Clarion (My current deck, I love it, has several highlight colors, so I can match it up to my interior colors. speaker and sub preouts. Plus this model is really cheap right now, b/c the new and shiny ones are out.

i like the older alpine head units personally, super reliable and great sound quality. as for speakers, run a set of component speakers up front and 2 ways in the back (sound quality in a 3 way is not as good, regardless of what any salesman guppy tries to tell you), component speakers are generally pretty pricey, another option would be a set of 2 ways and tweeters up front...audio is something you dont want to go cheap on, you get what you pay for, but just budget yourself and build a system within your means...im sure youll be satisfied...just out of curiosity, what kind of subs are u planning on putting in??
