Evening all

What type of speakers and headunits are a good replacement for the standard gear in the subaru. What size speakers can i get on the back with adaptors etc

Thanks all

 

are you looking to have external amps ?

 

Yea im looking at a 6 channel amp to power the front rear speakers and sub mate

 

my advice will always be alpine for the head unit. what type of music you listen to determines the amp but more the speakers...
what you listening to?

 

Guns n roses now n then so bit of classic rock but mainly old skool garage house etc mate

 

hmm so you like some soft vocals, base......

can i suggest some jl audio components, with silk dome tweeters in the front. jl audio 12 " bass in the boot. a good 4 channel jl amp to run these.....
then perhaps go 6" 9" on the rear shelf running off the head unit.

 

Got any links mate

 

just my personal experience from experts fitting hi fi to my cars over the years. thats the best set up i can advise in a scoob.......

for reasonable cash

 

Cheers matey

 

links to what ... ????

 

Do 6 x 9 fit straight in the back then, what size are the fronts?

Cheers ( was gonna start my own thread about this very thing)

 

OK, here's MY advice, same as it EVER was:

Get yrself out there and LISTEN to some.

Halfords or a decent ICE dealer.

Having chosen my headunit, I took my youngest who helped me do blind testing at Halfords.
I ended up with Sony 3-way 16.5cm fronts and Sony 3-way 6x9's rear.

Fronts are on mdf spacers, rears too, both home made.
Fronts are painted and not visble once door card is on, rears covered with proper ICE carpet.

 

How are you getting on with the install ? I have had a few speakers and amps at home for ages ready to go in and just no time to do at the mo

 

17cm components in the front of mine, 6x9's under rear shelf with custom adapters, run of my cd tuner no fancy bass boxes just good clean sound, and the 6x9's play really well and give a surprising amount of full range sound and bass

 

Ive fitted a set of 6x9's in place however they need securing properl. Ive got a sub and amp in the boot but thats not running as it dont seem to want to operate for some reason

 

really want to sort mine out at some point just finding the time

 

Always the way mate

 

I know mate Just need sound deadning and I'm almost ready to start but its the time one day I'll get there
