building it up now

[Saxo-Slag]

Well got my sax and starting 2 build the ice up.
Got myself a JVC KD-LHX601 Head unit. Some MTX 13cm front door speakers and some Vibe 6x9's.
Im just in the process ov getting the Vibe twin 12" subs. Now im just wonder which would be the best amp to power this lot.

[Mattvtr]

what wattage are they?(the subs)

[Saxo-Slag]

2800watt bad boys

[Baz]

whats the RMS rating on everything?

[Saxo-Slag]

I will have 2 have a look lads. sorry bout this. new 2 the game

[Baz]

no probs, always look at the RMS rather than Max wattage smileys/smiley2.gif same applies for Amps

[KAMENi]

and practically everything in the sound

[Saxo-Slag]

Yeah my mate told me all about the RMS instead ov the MAX power

[vtrchris64]

Have you got those Vibe Qbass 6x9's the rectangular ones if so good speakers very loud smileys/smiley20.gif

[DaveWard]

A budget would also help work out what amop is fit for the purpose. Also need to know what voice coils the subs have.


Also take a read of the 6x9s threas at the top of this section of the forum.

I like the 6x9's.Going 2 fit them in the back seat some how. smileys/smiley5.gif Picked my subs up yesterday which are sweet. Thinking ov getting a amp 2 power my 6x9's then a seperate amp for my subs but its gotta be big but which 1. smileys/smiley5.gif http://im1.shutterfly/procserv/47b6d824b3127cce8a7f1529eb0d00000016102Bbt2jFy5Y-

Nah got the SE K-Series. They better sound quality than the 1s ur on about. smileys/smiley17.gif

[Saxo-Slag]

Just got my amps.
Phoenix Gold Octane R A5.0:1 MonoBlock Amp for my subs and a Phoenix Octane R A2.5:2 2 channel amp for me 6x9's. Wired my subs up just gotta get the other 1 wired now.

[DaveWard]

You should amp your front speakers not your rears as the human ear can define sound from the front a hell of a lot better then it can from the rear.

[Saxo-Slag]

im thinking ov moving my 6x9's further up front maybe in the foot well

[bear_westy]

would make more sense to get either better comps or ie.. 3way or get some 16cm ones aswell as your 13cm

[Saxo-Slag]

Got it sorted now and it sounds soooooooooooo good. mega loud but crystal clear.

[DaveWard]

6x9s wont fit in the footwells.

Have you used them? If you have how did you make it sound crystal clear?

[Saxo-Slag]

I have them on my parcel shelf. I had a play with amp which took the bass straight outta them. The only bass i got is from my subs. I also cut a vent in the middle ov the parcel shelf which let the subs breath abit better. The guy next door used 2 be a sound enigneer help me fine tune it. smileys/smiley17.gif

[DaveWard]

Ask him to explain about stereo to you then.

[Saxo-Slag]

look mate i dont give a crap wot u think imo it sounds mint
