Not really too sure on how well the amp or subs perform but the subs look good. Wire them to 2 ohm. Also id advise strongly against 6 by 9s and go for 6.5 component speakers amped up.

ok kool :) yeah subs are 800w. 400w rms. but there are some sony ones which are 1100w same price and size but 275rms so i like these ones much more but the amp is what im mostly worried about. good amp means you got a good chance of a good system is what i think

[RyanSaxo]

for that price i haven't heard of the make juice??

and as it doesn't state the rms of the amp i would advise against it.

try makes like fli, jbl for budget amps.

but for the price of £150 you could get quite a good amp:

some of the ones i would look at:

or look in the second hand market....

(don't know how great they are, i'm not an expert, just giving some other ideas)

also as mentioned, don't get 6x9's and a sub.

:)

cheers for the advise :) would there be any speakers that have a bit of bass that i could put in the front and back? and at 900w and 1300w is that enough power to do the subs? coz subs are 1600 so surely i wouldn't need such powerful subs, also i want the speakers of the same amp

[ryza]

also what about this amp? http://www.audioassault.co.uk/Amps/Four_Channel_Amps/The_Loudest_TL-2092_Amp

it is theloudest and the rms rating can be found on: http://www.theloudest.co.uk/?sectionid=2&page=view_product&product_id=104

anyone think this is anygood or has had experience on any of theloudest products

[ryza]

anyone ?

[saxojh]

For the price best thing there is to stick with the audiobahn subs and look at buying a second hand jbl gto 14001e. That would give each subs 700watts rms at 2 ohms. Slghtly underpowered but that shouldnt matter too much. Then for speakers. You can only really get mid bass from a speaker so id go for some 16.5 cm comps upfront amped up and some 10cm coaxials in the rear door cards just ran off the HU. Oh and steer clear of the loudest.com imo.

cheers for the info mate :) i have bought my system now and see what people think.

juice 2400w 1800w rms monoblock class d amp £100
2 12inch audiobahn subs at 800w 400w rms £100 inc double box
head unit £150 some hong kong thing single din 7 inch motorized screen, bluetooth, tv tuner ( wont use that.) and some other stuff.
4 juice component speakers, £100 100w 50wrms each
2500w wiring kit £35 what do people think?

[jdr]

subs soudn good but you dont need that much power from amp

[ryza]

yeah i know it was reduced from 270 to 100 so i got it, so if i upgraded subs say in a year i wouldn't need to upgrade the amp aswell :)
