Good 6 x 9's?

[daverichards]

As above im looking for some good 6 x 9's for the parcel shelf
thought about a sub but need the boot really
only will be using them for bass!

any ideas?

[alanrichie]

even a small 8inch sub will produce better bass than 6x9's mate.

[DJDannyB]

[Ashleyp]

answer: not really

well there is 8"subs that are good, but doubt youd get a cheap one

id much rather have a good set of amped up component speakers

they produce enough bass to shake your mirrors, and with high SQ

i will reccomend you some comps and an amp if you want? whats your budget?

[daverichards]

dont really have a budget,
ive got some front vibe 5" speakers fitted last week
they sound alright but not the extra bass im afterr

vibe are crap mate.. and guessing their not amped?

dependant on your budget you could get a decent front set up, one which produces a good range of musical freqs, good volume, bass and most importantly clarity

- saying you have no budget would make me go crazy lol, i could reccomend something in the region of £10,000 if you wanted lol?

[daverichards]

wlel cheap then
the vibe front i have arent bad lol
they sound miles better than what i had mate
also the amping stuff, how do you do it?
is it straight forward or do you have to get someone to do it?

ampings pretty easy... thers about 5 wires.. but nothing that a monkey couldnt do

and vibes only sound good because you havnt heard any real speakers yet lol

fli any good?

[Ashleyp]

mate.. dont mean to sound rude now.. but have you listend to anything ive said? lol

get your front speakers sorted 1st before you start working on the sub

and nah, fli are crap..

[daverichards]

ive listened lol
and the amping front comps
would the head unit need to be changed?

depends what headunit youve got.. does it have preouts?

also, i wouldnt bother amping vibe speakers.. you could get some good speakers and an amp for less than £100

or you could spend a little more, obviously thats your choice

you get what you pay for in this industry..

[daverichards]

well lets say i have £100 budget for front comps and a amp?
what would you reccomend?
and i have a sony xplod unit, it was with the car
''4 x 45 w''

errggg.. sony lol

but providing it has preouts for a sub, it will do the job until you want an upgrade or whatever

components:

amp:

wires:

[daverichards]

seems like a lot of wiring
how much would it be to have it all fitted?

[Ashleyp]

if you want a full set up for £155 including a sub amp speakers wires and box then heres something i reccomending in another post

sub / amp / wires

component speakers

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/JBL-GTO-506c-1...d=p3286.c0.m14

the amp in the package is a 4channel amp so... 2 channels can be used for the speakers, and the other 2 channels can be bridged (basically use both for 1 speaker) for the subwoofer

this will give you good bass and clarity throughout the musical frequencys to acheive a very good low budget audio set up!

would just like to apologise for going £2.95 over your budget, hope you dont mind lol

any problems, let me know

and nope thats the wires you need.. and why would you waste money when you can easily fit it yourself?

[daverichards]

bearing in mind im a complete novice to all this lol
ill have to ring round and see how much it would be i reckon
