My car stereo

[[XC] 2long4u]

Well it has a Alpine deck that is a few years old, and I could definitely use a new one. I just replaced the rear 6"x9"s. The stock ones were pioneer with a very small magnet. I put in some Kenwood 5 ways. They hit pretty hard for what they are. They are a really harsh speaker but they are very dynamic. I get distortion at the same volume level so I figure that it's the deck's fault. I'm going to get a separate amp for the 6x9's and I might bridge in a sub we'll see.

Does anyone know how much power will be sent to the 6x9's with a bridged sub in the mix?

Depends on the amp/sub.

Get a 4-channel amp then you can put the 6x9's on 2 channels and the sub bridged to the other two.

Nice set up. I just recently upgraded the speakers on my car. It came with an in-dash and stock 17 year old speakers. So they were swapped out.

ha stevil beat me to it.

how are we supposed to know how much power they will get if you havent told us the RMS power rating of the amp.
you need a 4 channel amp that bridges down to 1x stereo channel. not just 2 mono channels (unless you run the right into one channel and the left into the other channel)

ditch the rears, put some good comps up front, sub in the rear with the amps, youll be good to go

Yea just get a decent rockford 4x100 W amp with some good 3"'s in the dash and your 6x9's in the rear. Drop a 250W amp to run a pair of 15's in the trunk. Dont forget to put silicone under your license plate and your tail light lense assemblies to deaden that god awful vibration noise that come off of every homies car you have ever stood next to while it was thumping because the homie is to freeking lazy to put on some vibration dampening.

God I hate the sound of license plate buzz every the bass hits. People are just lazy about not correcting it. Lazy, because it takes less then 10 minutes for a license plate. maybe 30 minutes for the tail light lense assembly.

Lestat - there are no 4 channel amplifiers that bridge down to 1 channel.

250w for a 15" sub, let alone two?? Not enough! :D
