well, i had enought with my stock head unit not reading cds and i got a kenwood kcf 232 and is awesome, just the little right knob seem fragile... i had kenwood before and lasted me ok. now for what i had before and i have questions for the future...
I had a kenwood head unit
front blaupunkt 160w speakers for good clear sound
back pioneer tsw something for highs and loud mids.
1 1000w dhd amp 4x250w at 4 ohm(old model)
and a pioneer IMPP sub with 300 RMS 600w peak
the setup was 2ch for inside speakers with no bass going to them from the amp, x over to max
2ch to the sub and that is pretty much it. I did lose fade control, but who cares since was the gain control for me. The system sound awesome and alot of people that spent more money and better brand got jelous. They used to swear I had a kicker or JL in there, some used to think I had 2, but again this was in a 2000 mitsu mirage.
NOW
I want a similar setup. I do not know what to get. The highs and mids are fine, but I want no bass to them. I was thinking of putting a 1 ch amp or 2 ch and run a sub. again not sure with amp and sub. I would want to stick to kenwood but is pretty expensive and now sure is really worth it since my last cheap setup was very very good.
Also, I think if i put a 4ch on stock speakers they will fry and might need to change them. What do you recomend. Get an amp with 2/3/4 and use to ch for inside and 1 for sub? will this run reliable, since my amp could drive to of those above mention subs and was just fine... no heat up.
how is lanzar, boss, precision power (ppi?) or some thing of ebay? I found good amps for my specs for around 75-100w rms for 150 shiped. also subs, what would you recomend? Remember I do not need to blow windows, but around 500W-1000w will be good since I do not need to play it at max...
thanks...
