Re: Replacing stock speakers

Well, im deff. getting the front, rear, and amp all at the same time.
I'm stretching my budget a little, to compensate for the amp and the installation.
About $400 all together. $300 for the speakers and amp.
I haven't even looked at the max wattage lol. Strictly RMS.
I'm SET on the Kappa's.
My friend has some in his jeep, and they sound great!
But does anyone have anymore input on the Crunch amp?
It seems like my best bet.

Re: Replacing stock speakers

I wouldnt bother with a Crunch amp, and they arent very good quality amps. They just throw out dirty power as far as I'm concerned. That kicker I linked you to is a great amp, and I can find others if you don't like it.

The deck is worth the money...with a good set of components, u can turn the volume all the way up without distorting the sound. Its worth it man!

Re: Replacing stock speakers

You can do the same with an amp.

Personally, I would rather do an amp just because you can more sound options, like Xover, gain, different filters etc.

Well, I was actually looking at the Kicker before you mentioned it. The only thing is that it will be putting out around 50W to each speaker. Would that be plenty enough? Considering the fronts are 75 watts and the rear are 110. (All RMS of course)

If you have any other suggestions that would be great though! I'd appreciate it, as I'm not very inclined about car audio.
