you can get these 6inch clarions i've got them in my car. um.. they were about 120 bucks or something, i'd give you the model number and everything, but god damn they are good.
are you planning on making door pods and putting them in? or what?
well the door panels in my car were all warped and shit so me and dad are going to make new door panels so I'm not sure if ill make pods or just put them in the door?
is there a difference in sound?

well I'm going to get some front speakers for my car soon in a couple of days probably and i was wondering what i should look for when i get them :y: i know i should look for rms?? instead of just watts? anything else i should know to get the best for my money? :dance: any suggestions on what brand i should look for?
-
okay thanks :D
-
headunit was already in the car when i got it :D all i know is its a clarion it doesnt have like a model on it or anything? :wink:
-
havnt sprayed yet, dads gotta find someone with a tig welder so we can fix the bootlid :wink: and it is enamel or how ever its spelt. once dad finds a tig welder and the bootlid is done it will be paint time :D
i hope..
-
oh ok so all headunits are the same because if thats the case i got one in my room with the wires labelled?
-
hahahah 18 gee
i was looking at the wires on the back of my headunit earlier today and none of them are labelled.. atm i only have two 6x9's but how do i know what wires are for what?
-
well just got back from looking at the 71 corolla and it was crap :D don't think there was a straight panel on it anywhere, didnt have a dash and the bootlid was worse than mine, (the two main reasons i wanted to get it) rust in heaps of places, was asking 250 and i don't reckon it would have gotten 150 :wink:
-
well I'm only 16 about to turn 17 and getting a job real soon so i don't have anything else to spend money on :D
-
well, tomorrow morning me and dad are going out to look at another 71' ke20 :yes: hopefully get that and take some parts (bootlid, dash, door trims) can't wait,
asking price is $250 but it hasnt been registered for about two years and has just been a paddock basher, so guna try and get it down to $150 shal be good :)

splits are midrange speakers and tweaters, with separate signals via a crossover.
ohhhhhh now i get it :) do you need crossovers for the speakers with the tweeters i nthe middle of them?
-
your headunit won't underpower your amp... ever.
all it does is provide a signal for the amp to power the speaker.
okay, thats all i really needed to know :)
and prob a stupid question but what are splits? are they just the front speakers?
-
well i was just thinking about how underpowering subs can blow them and the amp and stuff but does that kinda stuff happen from the headunit?
like can you underpower an amp from the headunit not having enough power? if that makes sense, not sure how to explain it properly?
And not even sure how it works but is the setup for car sound system this? not sure how many outputs a headunit has?
