speakers/subs

theponyfactor · Jun 26, 2006

Was reading around and I noticed that someone said if you replace the door speakers they will cut out at times....I put poineer speakers in the doors a long time ago before I had done any reading on the car. And they do cut out if I turn it up past a certain point, this happens because of the combo with the mach 460, even though they are said to fit my car?

also, ive been looking into subs/amp. Does anyone recommend a place wehre i can get custom fit boxes. I looked at crutchfield but they only 1, and it fit on the left side of the trunk. they didnt have a right one,and i want to do 2 10" subs.

Yeah I think it has to do with the mach460, to be honest if you buy or have a nice headunit it will sound better then powering off the mach460 amps.

yea i agree with ^ him cuse i got a poineer that cost like 300 some dollors head unit im not sure what modle off the top of my head but any way, it has poineersspeakers in the doors and with two mtx subs in the trunk ,and it dosent cut out at all .

if you want a new head unit i strongly suggest looking at ebay. I have done some looking into various ones for my car and i am most likely going to go with a clarion off of ebay that is about 1/3 price anywhere else. I did a lot of looking and reading peoples opinions/experiences and alpine and clarions are supposed to be good players. And for some reason the clarions on ebay go extremely cheap. I plan on getting 4 infinity kappas to replace the stock speakers and a clarion hu. Pioneers are not bad either as they are all i have ever put in vehicles but i want to try out some others for shits n giggles. i dont honestly plan on putting and subs in the car... just more weight right? :laugh:

yeah ebay is great for decks, I love alpine personally.

I recommend component set over regular 6x7/6x9 speakers.

Its worth the extra money.

I Have one 12in sub that sits in the spare tire well.

Hey Matt, what alpine do you have in there?
I too am a huge fan of alpine, but ive been out of the loop for a couple years so im not up on the new hawtness :hammer:
