I like the Solo-Baric Kicker L7 Series they pump 600 watts RMS (continous power) and they max out at 1200watts. Theyre the hottest component subs on the market right now. Rockford Fosgates also top for Amps in my opinon and i look at there record.

ROTARYROCKET7 02-03-2003 11:08 PM

This is the Rockford Fosgate that will soon be pumping my seven. The Solo-Baric Kicker L7 cost $399.99 and the RockFord Power 550s amp cost $399.99 on Crutchfield.com im getting both from Canal Street in china town for $400.00 for both. I got a Sony cdlx600 Receiver and 6 1/2'' sony xplods 3-way speakers in the back. Gonna move those to the front door and put the new sony 6 1/2'' in the hatch.



JazeRX-7, NYC

ROTARYROCKET7 02-03-2003 11:10 PM

These are the 6 1/2 i got in the back.. They match my car lol.

ROTARYROCKET7 02-03-2003 11:13 PM

no grill though on the last ones from the pic cause i got eh car covers grill on em so no 1 sees em. These will be the new ones that wil take the place in the hatch. The others one wil got to the front doors i hope.

The sonys look good, but I don't have any experince with them..

foopy 02-04-2003 04:00 AM

Scott 89t2: where do you put your spare? i like your trunk set up. is that a tweeter in the first pic?

serpent12 02-04-2003 04:18 AM

I have a Rockford 8340 Head unit, still with standard speakers.

I will replace them when I get some extra $$$.



The Dynaudio car audio range is sweet as, but very, very expensive!

CrazyAssRX7 02-04-2003 07:04 AM

87RX7NA 02-04-2003 08:50 AM

I've got a Rockford RFX9300 MP3/CD Deck with new kenwoods all around, and the best sounding 10" Kicker Comp VR I've ever heard. Then again, I am pushing it with a Sony Xplod 1000 Watt amp. :smirk:

87RX7NA 02-04-2003 08:51 AM

Scott 89t2, did all the S5s come with that cover for the back? Or maybe mine doesn't have it because it's a 2+2. I sure could use one though.

ROTARYROCKET7 02-04-2003 12:13 PM

Hey man,



I'm not trying to bash you here, but for my taste.........



Sony Car Audio sucks, specially the speakers. Everything else is more than OK, but sony https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif

The sony amp and subs suck. Like i said before i got them just to replace the factory speakers in the back cause they sucked balls. Nah ima get the rockford amp and the solo barick L7 subs and put 3 1/2'' kickers 2 way speakers under the dash. I got a sony reciever and it sucks but matches my car lol. But hey its better than listening to tapes now i can pop in my cds and enjoy lol. Good loookingout though..

i love the sony xplod flat panel cd recievers

i had one and then it got stolen.

i loved it though.

no buttons sticking out and no stupid shiny plastic pieces everywhere

75 Repu 02-04-2003 12:37 PM

for amps I recomend Zapco, but they are spendy.. They rock real nice.. My bro as a Zapco Z300c2 that I sold him in his Land cruiser with 2 12' L7's and they rock real nice..

Hey man,



Cool, I was afraid you'll get mad at me or something!!



Here is a suggestion, don't use the 3 1/2 location for speakers, it will ruin your image & sound stage. In stead, put a 6 1/2 componets in the door, with the tweeter as low as possible (or far away from your ears as possible, but allways in front of you). If you do this, you won't even need "rear speakers", trust me!!



BTW - BIG is dead, I don't want to follow his steps https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/blackeye.gif

You can either choose "looks" vs "Utility" or both. Ofcourse "BOTH" is hella expensive!!

Zapco is a very good brand, PPI, Autotek, Hi Fonics, Rockford, hell even MTX is a good brand. Watch for the new DEI amp series (also known as Viper), and Memphis (known before as Fultron) are coming in with some nice car audio stuff for the budgetet customer.

SilverTurbo 02-04-2003 01:33 PM

Should sound good. those L7's will hit.

ROTARYROCKET7 02-04-2003 01:51 PM

Never heard of ZAPCO?. i like biggie lol. the true story behinds biggies death. I got the DVD. They found him dead in his house with a bucket of KFC chicken and a biscut in his mouth. And he wrote a sample "look at the all the french fries i been through " lol just ******* around. Biggies was a Best rapper of alll tiimes.. Big ups to BK Ease NY my hometown.

75 Repu 02-04-2003 01:58 PM

Zapco Dealers are hard to find.. They are easier to get on the Net but that is always risky business. I used to power 3 12" JL w6 subs with a Zapco Z100c2 amp, this amp is only rated at 100watts.. I hooked it up at 1 ohm and it rocked the living hell out of the JLs

ROTARYROCKET7 02-04-2003 01:59 PM

iight ill keep an eye out. thanks :bigok:

knonfs 02-04-2003 02:19 PM

Just remember that low impedance amps are not the ones that prodeuce the highest quality of sound. You'll be fine with the rockford.......

ROTARYROCKET7 02-04-2003 04:50 PM

IGHT THANKS

75 Repu 02-04-2003 04:54 PM

Yeah for bass , low impedance is okay.. But for your components its better to use 4 ohms or even 8 if you can.. but thats is usually for home audio..

Racer X 02-04-2003 09:07 PM

My choice of amp is the RF DB1000 and speaking from experience this amp is overkill. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png My sound system is pure overkill.I can't wait to compete this year.Make some people around here think twice about challenging me to a soundoff. :smirk:

ROTARYROCKET7 02-04-2003 10:50 PM

Thas hot good luck. :bigok:

ROTARYROCKET7 02-05-2003 10:36 AM

yo racer x i like your advatar lol..

Rob x-7 02-05-2003 06:15 PM

Best subs without a doubt are JL Audio.

thier 10" handles 1500 watts then you void the warranty.

Thier 13 handles 4000 ( ! ) watts and they you void the warranty.



So who knows how much they can handle before you blow them up, lol.

SilverTurbo 02-08-2003 07:27 PM

Eclipse Amp, Nak HU, and a JL subwoofer would be a good combo.
