<strong class='bbc'>Prinz, you'll be very happy with Focals. I almost bought a set of the 165k's but decided to stick with MB Quarts for no other reason than I've used Quarts for the past 8 years and they haven't let me down yet. [/b]</blockquote>
Originally, I was going to go with a/d/s. I might consider JL Audio XR-653s as well.:D
 
In the current Maxima, I am just trying to replace the factory speakers since one blew. I decided to go with some Eclipse 83941s for the rear and some 4x6s for the front.



But when I get the new car, that's when the serious system is going in. :D

<strong class='bbc'>By the way, I started my lower door panels today. They should be done in a few weeks. let me know what ya think.

Check them out here [/b]</blockquote>
Your inserts are pretty phat. Let me know when you completely install them.
 
I am about to get some Eclipse speakers to replace the stock speakers in the Maxima. I am going to get some 5.25" for the front and some 6x9" in the rear. I am contemplating installing a JL Audio 300.4 amp to drive the whole setup.

<strong class='bbc'>That stuff is crap, cuz it really isn't good for your rubber, cuz it will cause it to eventully crack. Use 303 Aerospace instead cuz it will be 100% better for your rubber! [/b]</blockquote>Good to see that the detailing antenna's are up even in the Interior & Audio forum :D
 
Well, let me give ya all a rundown of my audio history:



In the beginning:



Two MTX Thunder 6000 12's

MTX Thunder 304 amp

MTX terminals

sealed hatchback box

Phoenix Gold, StreetWires, and Goldquest wires

1-farad PIE MTA cap





Progressed to:



Two Sony XPlod 12's

JBL GTO 525 5 1/4" door speakers

AudioControl Epicenter



That went on to:



Three 10's in a sealed angle box (2 subs were Blues, aka Kicker, 1 RF)

Q-Logic truck box for a 12



Then that went on to:



MTX T240 amp

Jensen KAC 200 watt amp



Heres a rundown,



I had all teh stuff in the beginning. I sold the cap for 60 bux. Then I got associated with some people who deal systems pretty often, so that hooked me up pretty good. I made a trade of the two Sonys for the three 10's and got 30 bux to boot on it. I made a box for a guy for two 12's and that scored me the Jensen amp and Q-Logic box. Today I traded my JBL speakers for the MTX T240 amp and got 20 bux boot on it. I plan to get rid of teh 10's and the Jensen amp sometime in the future, but still not for sure. I almost wound up trading my Epicenter and 304 amp for a Kicker IX720 amp today.



I'm planning on making a new box for my 12's. It will go from wall to wall in teh cargo compartment with extensions over the wheelwells, and it will be two boxes bolted together so if I need space I can take one out. I will try to mount whatever amp I wind up with under my back seat, and I think new speakers will need to be put in all 4 doors, I dont think the factory can stand up to all the bass. We fired up teh Epicenter today and couldnt really tell much of a difference, and if it continues on that way then I'll get rid of it. I think I'm just going to buy all new wires, a kit, since the box I got is all mis-matched. Lets see, When I pull off the panels to install the system, I'm going to coat everything in the roll on bedliner stuff to avoid having to spend all the $$$ on Dynamat. For now, if I cant get all my stuff and get everything ready, I will run one 12 in the Q-Logic box so theres half the bass for my parents to disapprove of. I will most likely power it with the T240 amp. We'll see how it turns out.
 
My how the times can change :) Here is what has happened.

Sold the Jensen amp and the RF sub. Sold the 304 amp and bought an 8000 12". Trying to sell the two remaining 10's. Trying to buy an Alpine 600 watt'er. Going to keep all MTX subs unless an offer comes up that I cant refuse. The T240 amp is burned up. I still dont know if I'm going to make the new box or not. Things change so fast and I get so screwed up :eek:

If I decide not to make that new box, I like this setup:

Eh?

hey <<<BOOM>>> ;) if you're HU shopping look into a CD player that can read MP3, you'll be able to put like 100+ songs on 1 cd in MP3 format, it's worth it to save you a lot of space. :)
 
I now have a set of Bostons in the rear of the Maxima. It's a good thing I had that done. Turns out the original speakers were dry rotted and had some holes in them. Now I am looking into getting a set of 5.25" to compliment them.
 
Just randomness from... someone who knows little about the different meanings of speakers...



but erm, I definitely blew my two front speakers and that stinks a LOT. however I should be getting a new car very very soon (like a month) so it's all good. :) I don't think I'm bragging, now am I? hahaha.



anyways, good luck with your new speakers and subs and such, hopefully everything works out grrrrreat! god that hasta be awesome to feel the bass, whoop whoop!

What are you getting? I might be getting something in 2 months. :D
 
I'm hoping to get a full scholarship to a college I applied to, and (when) I get it, as a "reward" I'll be getting a 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX. And that's *definitely* something I can live with. ;)



How about you? What kind of car would you be getting in 2 months?

Perhaps. I need to get with you on some House Music anyway. :cool:
 
chat??!! chatttt???!!! I want to chat... maybe. hahahaa, I'd probably get lost in the mix but it's always fun to pretend I'm some car smartie. ;)



It's probably too late now anyways, plus I'll be watching prime time all evening (how is it that prime time can last from noon until midnight every day? that's the craziness that comes with cable...) but I just thought I should reply and... ramble.

Hey everyone,



Guess what? :rolleyes: I traded off my two 6000's, and now I have two Thunder 8000 12's. I will also be getting the Alpine amp, if my friend can ever get his act together and bring it to me. I also have a Scosche EFX wiring kit now, so an install is coming soon :cool:
