Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3283 Registered: Feb-05 | Since im going to be keeping my 95 Montero SUV. I thought i whould start on a budget system. I have room for 2 6.5's in the front and 2 6x9's in the back which i know isnt the best sq but will give me some bass if i choose not to go with a sub. So today i went out and got a Pioneer 4800 from Circuit City. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-tooQdutqbPn/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=300&I=130DEHP480 Here is what i have new sitting in boxes. I just need some help picking out what to use. - Infinity Referance 6.5 2 Ways http://www.crutchfield.com/S-tooQdutqbPn/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=52000&I=1086012I - CDT EF-61NEOX 2 way coaxials http://www.cdtaudio.com/slim_neo_systems.htm I am looking to get the PPI PCX 440 to run four speakers but the rears whould have to be 6x9's unless i decide to get a subwoofer later on then i whould be fine with the 6.5 2 ways 40 x 4 @ 4 ohm - http://www.precisionpower.com/amps/pcx440.asp I have a custom speaker pods built on the door which are IB that can house 2 components up front aswell. Just not sure if the 40 watts rms will be enough for any component set out there ? Let me know if any come to mind. I dont feel liking getting a bigger amp unless the price falls around $200 for a good one on ebay or whatever. Any feedback whould be nice. |

Post Number: 3284 Registered: Feb-05 | I could always go all Infinity with the referance 6.5 2way coaxials upfront and the referance 6x9's in the rear. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-boQasMZiGCX/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=52300&I=1089612I 40 x 4 @ 4 ohm should be plenty or should i look at 80 x 4 @ 4 ohm amp ? |

Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 11371 Registered: Dec-03 | CDT in front CDT or alpine type R 6x9 in back PPI amp to power front/rear the pioneer is nice that'd work well. add a sub later if you like |

Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3285 Registered: Feb-05 | Thanks guys, looks like i will use the CDT 6.5 coaxial upfront and a 6x9 in the rearfill by the cargo area and go with the ppi pcx 440 - 40 x 4 @ 4 ohm Alteraudio and Glasswolf / Type R 6x9's or any other nice 2 way 6x9 ? So far i was considering the infinity referance 6x9 and the Type R 6x9 but im not sure which will perform better for this. I dont think CDT makes a 6x9 coaxial alone or does it ? |

Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3289 Registered: Feb-05 | The reason i was considering the 6x9 is because im not going to have a subwoofer in this system for a while and i figure it whould make good rearfill with adequete bass until i get possibly 1 or 2 12's or 15's. Kind of thinking about IDQ 12's or 15's down the road. |

Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3301 Registered: Feb-05 | Ive decided to just go with 4 CDT EF-61NEOX 2 way coaxials 2 in the front and 2 in the back with the speaker adapter to fit in the rear. 2 more weeks for the CDT amplifiers that will be made and handcrafted in the USA !!!! That will put a nice touch to my 4 speakers running off the Pioneer Premier DEH-P580MP and finished off with the CDT amp.. I may add 1 subwoofer to the system later on with a amp to match. Maybe a SoundSplinter RLP 12 ? sealed ? |

Post Number: 3311 Registered: Feb-05 | http://www.soundsplinter.com/rlp12_premium_series_12_inch_DIY_subwoofer_informat ion.html Anybody have any experience with that subwoofer and how it compares to others. Sealed or Ported and any other thoughts on it mating with the rest of my system. Not a bad price for this sub. |

Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3325 Registered: Feb-05 | I may go with the Alpine Type R 6x9 or CDT EF-61NEOX / just not 100% on this yet since i dont have a sub or amp to run my low end. |

Silver Member Username: AlteraudiousaConcord Post Number: 443 Registered: Jan-06 | CDT CL-69x, a 6x9 component setup. Lends nicely to either a rear stage or without the tweet a rear fill. |

Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3327 Registered: Feb-05 | I dont think im going to go with a component setup in the rear. I think it whould make more sense to just go with a midbass instead or a Alpine Type R 6x9 which will give me a good amount of midbass and low end to mate with my cdt neox 6.5 coaxials up front. CL-69 and Alpine Type R is what im looking at right now. |
