Bronze Member Username: Nyyfan13VA USA Post Number: 93 Registered: Jul-06 | ctmike, i was talking with someone on the amp section and they told me that one xenon 600/1 would do me fine because they are very underrated and that they could push close to 800-900. now i dont know much about car audio so i was gonna go along with him. so i guess you diagree with that statement? let me know cause im not trying to get screwed over with a amp that does me no good. |

Some of them also blame the subs for the reason why there music sounds that way. i personally would go for the new speakers and an amp to power those before i got subwoofers, u will notice a big difference between your old speakers and ur new speakers |

Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 1526 Registered: Feb-06 | depends on what you like. personally i would get a nice set of comp., amp them, and maybe buy a decent set of rear speakers, nothing to expense, and run them off the hu. |

Bronze Member Username: Nyyfan13VA USA Post Number: 99 Registered: Jul-06 | ive heard that to, ive been told that if you have a small car just buy a good set of front components and run them off an amp. also i heard to get both front and back. but go in your car and set the balacne on your headunit to just the front and sit in your car and listen to it, if your like how it sounds then just get the front setup but then again think about the ppl sitting in the rear, cause it might sound a little funny with only front speakers and no rear. i personnally would get front and rear, but thats just me. hope this helped |

Silver Member Username: CavsmaximaPost Number: 107 Registered: Aug-06 | Pioneer makes some nice looking speakers. Im just going to save up and get all 4. the front and rear speakers would both be the same size right. Mine are 6x5 so i could jus get two sets of two or are the back speakers bigger or smaller. Thanks for your help. |

Silver Member Username: Nyyfan13VA USA Post Number: 103 Registered: Jul-06 | haha let me point out a couple things: tonite: ya got lucky because we're saving mariano for when we realy need him.it was a poor perfomrance by scott proctor. today: nice hitting and nice run support. and if you want me to, ill be more than happy to reeling off facts to you and whoever wants to hear them about how the yankees are and have been the greatest baseball organization ever and arguably the best sport franchise ever. but hey, we'll see you in october, and one thing is for sure, the red sox will be watching us on tv win the world series for the 27th time. f*ck the red sox. |
