Silver Member Username: ExigeCincinnati Post Number: 265 Registered: Nov-07 | kicker's really not that great in general when it comes to speakers. instead of doing 6x9's, get an adapter and install a 6.5" component set. the adapter will fit in the 6x9 hole. what's your budget for speakers? are you amping them? |
Bronze Member Username: SilvermoparNebraska Post Number: 63 Registered: Aug-06 | well I would like to run an amp to them. My HU puts out like 40 watts to each of 4 channels. Budget it kinda low. maby somewhere close to $150 for a decent amp and a pair of 6x9s or similar. I could make an adapter if 6" componets are better. I was shootin for at least 150 watts to each. I will add something of a subwoofer in the future. I want to be able to get loud enough to heart the ears but stay crisp. not that it will be ran at full volume very often. I just like to be able to get that loud thanks |
