Silver Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 958 Registered: Sep-05 | Hey fellas, my Pioneer speakers been great too me. But I dont know if I should sell them to get some better stuff. Check my profile for the exact models, but they are 6x9 4ways & 5.25 3ways. I think they sound good, but I want LOUDER. Should I replace them all? Or should I keep them then add some 4x6 components in my dashboard? <thats what Im thinking.... Or should I replace them and just do components in the front doors, 5.25 and in the dash 4x6? My bass is very powerfull and will easy make highs disappear some times =D Or will they performe alot better on a biger amp? Cause my amps are up for sale. |

Silver Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 959 Registered: Sep-05 | I want the highs, vocals, to be heard wayy b4 I pull up, just like the bass does. But I want it clear and loud with minimal distortion. Ohh my old amp on the highs were a PRD200.2; It did 140rms x 2 @ 2ohms. =D |

Silver Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 961 Registered: Sep-05 | Alteraudio I dont have a webpage now, I fixed the profile. I dont really have a budget, but I also dont have no $$ at the momemnt, untill I buy my new amplifier for my subs So maybe 2 weeks. I just wanted to know, exactly what you guys recomend, whats your price on CDT stuff? And what kind of power can I give them? Should I run them with the Pioneers or no? |

|
Silver Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 965 Registered: Sep-05 | yea, I do need a horn, atleast one of them. Maybe in the rear deck aiming up. But I think I want some componets too, for the dash. But difinetly a horn! Or should I put ALL components in all locations? Who makes the best components for 4x6s ? Also how many speakers is too much? I want loud good sound quality. =D |

Silver Member Username: PelonaPost Number: 398 Registered: Dec-05 | i dont think horns are made for cars. unless your'e talking about those image dynamics horns are those ids loud? |
|
Silver Member Username: AlteraudiousaConcord Post Number: 137 Registered: Jan-06 | horns are loud but take some TLC to install. B, email me or I'll try and meet up with you one day. Can you make kickpanels? If its like my Alero I had I can think of a nice little install for it. |
|
Silver Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 984 Registered: Sep-05 | I cant make any kickpanels, but would that be good place for horns? When exactly do you be in Charlotte? Or are you nearby? |
|
Silver Member Username: AlteraudiousaConcord Post Number: 169 Registered: Jan-06 | Concord, around ext 54 off I-85, i'll be down in Charlotte on Sunday I believe but I'll hopefully be working on the car. |

Silver Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 996 Registered: Sep-05 | Cool, I actually stay off ext 60, you not far at all. lol Im normally in Charlotte all the time, I hate that my system isnt hooked up right now. We could have listen to it. Still trying to get my new amp, and sell my old amps.. |

Silver Member Username: AlteraudiousaConcord Post Number: 238 Registered: Jan-06 | yeah i don't have anything in my car right now. I have the wood in the trunk but just waiting on what sub i can, a 12, a 15, or a quartet of 8's. Too many decisions. WHat you think B? My fronstage will more than likely consist of: ES-600 6.5 woofer HD-4 4in woofer TW-24s tweets(2x) Rear Deck, Tang Band 6.5(2x) Subs- one 12, one 15, or 4 8in??? Amps- MOnitor I MK2.70 running the ES-600 and tB 6.5.; MK 1 2.70 running the tweets; Concept CC-D1200 running the subs. |

Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 11090 Registered: Dec-03 | sorry just got up, I meant to say speakers with that power handling AND a high sensitivity rating. |
|
Silver Member Username: AlteraudiousaConcord Post Number: 251 Registered: Jan-06 | I would say B if you have a 4x6 dash and a 5.25 opening in the door I'd do a 3way setup, 5.25 woofer in door, 4in on the dash and tweets on the sails, run the 5.25 woofer active and the 4in and tweet passive and nothing in the back(unless people sit back there). The USAmp IS-4085(85x4) would do you nicely on this setup. I can get you this, just email me and we'll talk prices. sales@alteraudiousa.com if this don't work for you, i'd go with what Glasswolf said but coax's don't impress me much. |

Gold Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 1090 Registered: Sep-05 | ok, lotta decisions. =D Alteraudio I would do 1 12 in the back with alot of power! Ill email you this week. Glasswolf Im still deciding on what Im goin to do. I know Im going for all SQ on the midrange and highs. =D |

Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 11108 Registered: Dec-03 | then do the separates in front, in fiberglassed kick pods or lower quarter door panels built out to angle them properly. good equal signal paths, and ideal aiming. also better speakers in general than coaxials.. they just tend to cost a little more. |

Silver Member Username: StamantPensacola, FL USA Post Number: 108 Registered: Sep-04 | Glass, would you add any rearfill speakers with the setup you are describing? If yes what would they be? |
|
Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 11123 Registered: Dec-03 | only if you carry folks in the back seats.. and I'd match them to the same line as the separates I used in front so the timbre is matched between front and rear.. less distraction that way. I'd also wire the rear two channels to the rear channels of a 4 chan amp, and when doing so, bridge the two rear amp channels, and run the rears in mono instead of stereo. this also cuts down on the tendancy to ruin the front stage. |
