New member Username: Sparkman112Post Number: 2 Registered: Jan-12 | Hello I have zero experience when it comes car audio but i am currently shopping for an entire new sound system. I did some research and decided to go with all alpine products. I just wanted to know if you guys can help me out by telling me if what I wanna get makes sense. Subwoofer: Alpine type R 12" 4 ohms http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/swr-1243d/ Door speakers: Front: Alpine Type R 6-1/2" component 2-way http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/spr-60c/ Rear: Alpine Type R 6-1/2" coaxial 2-way http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/spr-60/ Amps: For speakers: PDX-F4 4/3/2 Power Density Digital Amplifier http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/pdx-f4 For the sub: PDX-M6 Mono Power Density Digital Amplifier http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/pdx-m6/ I basically just want to hear your opinions on this set up, if it even makes sense, or even work. I drive a 2011 Mazdaspeed 3 BTW. Any adive/help will be greatly appreciated. |
