cant find part 2. but im saving up to redo my whole system and i want to use kicker QS 6.5's but im not sure if the zx650.4 is too much power? and since its a 4 channel do the tweeters get there own channel at 120rms at 4ohms? and mids too? seems like too much power for just tweeters...plz help sonix
Which components under 75$ do you sell most of? I'm looking for the best sound quality I can get for 75 or less. Can you point me in a good direction please? Will be using Kicker KX350.4 which is 35rms x4 @4 ohms. And do you know of any components that will run 2 ohm? My amp makes 75 rms x4 @2 ohms, but it's not looking like many will be 2 ohms when wired.
@Bshizzle88FI4Life At the price range you specified, finding a match is improbable. Although not within your price range, considering the specs you are looking for, the Infinity Kappa 60.9cs is probably a good option.
hey quick question, instead of running a mid-bass speaker and a tweeter, im running a co-axial and a tweeter....my amp is set to 1200hz HighPass....do i need a crossover?
@SonicElectronixTV he quick question im looking to get some new speakers for my isuzi i290 truck the speakers i have now are the pioneer TSA1673R coaxial and i am very disappointed as the speakers are definitely not the clearest. Do you recommend coaxial speakers or component speakers? i do not plan on getting a amp i am just running it off the head unit. Is there a pair of speakers with nice mids and highs with great sound quality you can recommend? thanks again!
@cam8o8 Componet speakers are always going to give you much clearer sound see as the frequencies are more seaparated. If your looking for a good pair to run unamped we would suggest the DLS Performance K6.
i have an 03 eclipse and want to install 6 1/2" speakers for the doors and 6x9s for the rear. im planning on getting these from alpine, but im not sure if they should be component or coaxials. what should i do? and also, what type of amp should i get?
if i buy 2 sets of component speakers where that little crossover go? not inside the door panel i imagine lol...btw i thought crossover was something else this little thing that u can set up how u want the sound which is better to install under the radio or reachable for weneaver u wanna change the settings...
@jenuelpr The best place is the kick panel, it is closer to the wiring coming from the door and its also in a more secure spot. Its never really a good idea to put external crossover inside the door panel, the door is constantly opening and closing and it can cause the crossovers to fall. So the best location is the kick panel.
I have a Kia Forte SX 2011 and I want to put 2 amps and 4 subs, but the stock radio don't have the Subwoofer option, so I know I have to get an equalizer but my question is: can I put all that without damage the stock radio system?? and how can I do it?
@blink1223 What you will need is a 4-channel Line-Out Converter. This will allow you to use your speakers wires as hi-level inputs that you would connect to your speakers to your vehicle without messing with the factory dash or the need to upgrade or change your headunit. This would be the best way to go. Something like the Cache COE6 should do the trick.
My car originally came out the factory with wires for the mids and tweeters, can I just wire to the original loom or would i have to use the cross over?
i have a 2000 mitsubishi mirage 2dr coupe and i think im either going to get two mid range or one sub woofer so i can make my sound system a little better which should i get????
excuse me, i have a pair of alpine type s 5x7 coaxial speakers and my problem is that the crossover for the tweeter burned out and my tweeters are dead, is there any way to replace the crossover or will i have to send em to the trashcan at 2 weeks old? right now i have 2 pairs of Alpine Type R's.......... and which component speakers would you recommend Alpine's SPR-50C or the ones in the vid the 356CS, please do reply, thank you
@TheGuyWhoDidUrM0M You'll need to get warranty service for the speakers. I'm not sure of a manual way to replace the crossover, unless you order a replacement from Alpine directly. As far as the comparison of speakers, unfortunately these awesome 356CS speakers were only on closeout and they're completely discontinued and no longer available. The SPR-50C is a great set, however!
@SonicElectronixTV got a couple questions for u guys, so do the kicker ks 6.5s have good loud mids n highs n does a pair come in one box, n would they sound good with my cvr 12s
@pleeeeep You certainly can. Some good options are the Boston Acoustics SE60 speakers. These 6-1/2" speakers don't require an amp and can be driven with a factory head unit. Personally I would recommend an aftermarket head unit for much better overall performance from the speakers, but it can work either way.
@moddingpc Component speakers are generally used to created a full range of audio. This is done with the use of crossovers which filter out frequencies that are not favorable to each driver so that the driver is not producing unwanted frequencies and thus becoming distorted. With the ability to mount the tweeter right next to the bass driver you are able to have all sound hit your ears at the same time which creates better sound staging in your vehicle.
all your speakers need an amp that way it all even not just bass all door speakers will take 50 watts up to about 100 watts most 4ch amps have a built in crossover that what makes or brakes it
ok well i was looking through sonicelectronix and i want to replace the 6 1/2 speakers should i get a coaxial or component? my truck is a 2002 s10, anyone have an idea?
@5heeshi I'd like to clarify, as I'm not familiar with triaxial myself. If you mean a three way component, or a three way coaxial, they will both work. 4 speakers + a sub will work fine. You have to consider the power handling of the speakers you choose to know if you'll need an amp for them, of if you can just run them off of your factory radio. If you want to run the speakers off of a factory head unit, ensure that they require a low amount of power handling, around 35W RMS per speaker.
@SonicElectronixTV not meaning to bash on anything or your knowledge cuz i buy most of my sound system shit from sonicelectonixs im just saying most head units people buy will not put out 35 rms each channel... its probly closer to 15 or 20 if your lucky! that was my little 2 cents.
@561buRnz407 To clarify, a LOT of component speakers require external amplification if not most. Coaxials sometimes don't require amplification, as they require low power (Around 35WRMS) As kevin10r corrected, most aftermarket headunits only push around 20W RMS. Factory radios push much less, maybe around 5-10W RMS at the most? If your components require 50W RMS or more, I would surely recommend an amplifier for your door speakers as well. 35W-45W RMS is pretty safe to run off of a deck.
tell me this, should crossovers / splitters not be installed before the amplification stage? becuause its smarter to split un-amplified signal rather than amplified?
cuz this is not the case in most installs, apparently yu are meant to installed crossover AFTER amp.... someone enllighten?
yeah I did that for my kicker Ks Components because my factory tweeters was to small so I mounted my tweeter to the speaker and sounds much better than just the regular coaxial's
cant find part 2. but im saving up to redo my whole system and i want to use kicker QS 6.5's but im not sure if the zx650.4 is too much power? and since its a 4 channel do the tweeters get there own channel at 120rms at 4ohms? and mids too? seems like too much power for just tweeters...plz help sonix
