Aftermarket sound without changing HU
|
Bronze Member Username: Iwrk4satanPost Number: 61 Registered: Jul-05 | I am looking to get a new 2008 Honda Accord coupe in the next couple of months. I like the way the inside dash looks as is, with the GPS and all, so I'm thinking about not replacing the HU. I was wondering what direction you guys think I should go. The car comes with "premium audio" which is 7 speakers and a subwoofer, but I'm pretty sure I know what that means -- sounds good to someone that's not really that into music... I'm wondering if I really need to buy something like the JL cleansweep (or anything else that anyone can recommend?) or if I could just do the job with a Line Out Converter. I already have most of the other equipment: 12" v3d4 IDMAX in a 2.5 cuft ported box JL 500/1 JL 300/4 but I'm leaving my old component speakers in my old car. Another question is, is it very important that I get new componenets (I was looking at some CDTs, maybe the HD62?). I'm assuming I won't be able to run the stock speakers amped, and even if I did there's no way they'd keep up with the power. So basically any feedback from anyone that's run a nice system without an aftermarket HU would be great. What I should focus on and what I can live with out? Thanks. |

Post Number: 3778 Registered: Mar-06 | LOC sucks id rather mount a second HU under the dash then continue using the LOC\Stock HU.... New cars need to start coming with RCA-Preouts on the stock HU's.....and stop integrating the whole car into it... >.< |
