Wow what an amazing price for such a highly recommeded set of component speakers, thanks for sharing the great price with us Ashleyp, wish I could afford both amp & speakers, think I'll be investing in aset of speakers now then save up for the amp at a later date.

both ideally...cant remember which amp it was if it takes 4 gauge buy that if not 8 gauge... sound proofing will help stop rattles and produce a better woofer sound...

so far so good.
Tweeters and nice and crispy... haven't bolted the woofers down yet (just in case I needed to trouble shoot)... I put a layer of DynoMat in as well so looking forward to hearing these speakers in their full blown glory. Just gotta get the bedding in stage over with

Would you mind measuring the amp for us (width & depth), I'm curious to know if it will fit under the passenger seat.
Thanks.
