hey guys i might setup my ride with this

Setup:
JL10 W6v2
Diamond Audio Hex S600 c
Diamond Audio M6 5.25" c
JL audio 500/1
JL audio 300/2

Do i need a 4channel amp for the front and rear speakers? is their any other good amps w/ less price that'll give me the power to give juice to the subs and speakers. the setup might cost a lot. maybe i can sacrifice some components for another. dunno. debating...

would love to hear from you experts. thx!

 

I'm no expert..lol But look into Boston Acoustic Z-series components - They are sweet! As for the Amps, it is really a personal choice, there are alot of other amps that would get the job done just as well. Also, you might want to look into Zapco amps, they are one of the best!

P.S. You get what you pay for.

 

If you're mostly about sound quality, ace your rear speakers - they don't help SQ at all.

Then run a 3 or 4-channel amp to the system. Saves money, improves imaging.

If you want to look at great sounding gear that's not too much money, look at DLS. But those amps work well.

 

there isnt much of reason to use 500/1 to power W6 cus there is no ohm issues like if you were to use W7s, if you want to save some money? look into Hifonic's ZX8000, its 5 channels with 50x4 and 300x1(2 ohms) and its only around 250.

You need an four channel amp to power front and rear speakers only if you want able to control the fade.

 

I Have Some Barely Used Pairs Of 10w6v2's And 500/1's Laying In My Garage. Pm Me If Your Interested. I Can Save You Major Dough On Perfect, Barely Used For A Few Months- Equipment.

 

Ditch the rear speakers and don't skimp on your components.

 

I couldn't have said it better myself.

 

so im thinking this.

JL10 w6v2(4080box) and infiniti kappa perfects 6.1 components. dunno yet for amp. gotta find a single amp that will power all of them or might just get two amps for each. any advice?

 

I'm no expert but I prefer Kick or Rockford Fosgate. They give a clean sound and are not that expensive.

 

any good install places that i can go to ? can be near cerritos/newport beach/irvine

 

When you guys say "ditch your rear speakers" do you mean the speakers below the back side window, or the speakers on the rear window shelf?

I have a 2005 non-Bose system,so I don't have any rear shelf speakers.

 

Read my sig for my setup, I'm very happy with it.

Get F components and a sub. That's it. No R doors. No R deck.

 

I ahppen to think the overall sound is better with something in the rear. It doesn't need to be super expensive, but I think rear fill is a necessity, which explains why I have co-ax in the rear rather than seperates.

Each persons tastes are different, though

Exactly!
