bro just go for as 12" subbie , a 4 channel , and a component...forget

about the 6x9.....people only use 6x9's if they dont plan to use subs , cos
they can pump out a lil bit of bass...but since u gettin a sub , just get a sllightly
bigger one and ditch the 6x9's..u wont regret it. The 6x9's dont sound good

 

[Yong_5290]

y ppl dun like 6x9? coz u turn volume louder than got cracking sound edi...

its better 4 u 2 get a decent sub 2 play the low freq...

 

[neo79]

Wait,

1 ch - Front component
1 ch - rear fill
2 ch - subs

Throw da rear fill.

BTW your amp power how much ah per channel?

 

[Spoon DC5 II]

no no
1 ch - front left channel
1ch - front right channel
2 bridged ch - sub

 

[yohannes]

wooo...ajak me also....L15 ar....i wan.....

btw...4 very simple setup....use a 4chn amp...2chn 4 the front n bridge the other 2 to drive a sub...i think using a big ported enclosure will help as it increases the efficiency of the sub wit less power compared 2 sealed...

 

[seisuichai]

so how? have u bought ur stuff alredi?
just get 6.5 inch component....and 12inch sub....
4 ch would just do the thing....
mine also like that.....very nice sound....
everything should not be more than 1.5k

basis 4 me is compoment front 6.5, rear 6x9 don't use it and sure sub must use lol. But the compoment set must use the good quality one plus the sub too.

 

[DJThoRmented]

hmmmm...

4 channel amp is like this:
2 ch for comps (left right)
2 ch for sub (make sure the amp can do bridging)

to me, i'd rather run another 2 ch amp or a monoblock. so...
4 ch amp (no front/rear amps):
2 ch runs my mid
2 ch runs my tweets

2 ch amp (mono) to run my sub.

today's HU got a lot of function and preouts. use them and then upgrade to proper RCA. ;)

If you're not into heavy techno head banging music; I'd suggest you invest in a CD head unit with at least 60W X 4 with build in EQ and time alighment. Then use a bass tube with build in powered amplifier, get a set of component speaker within your budget for the front and a normal 6" 2 way speaker for the rear. With some good tuning at the head unit you have got your self quite a respectable 'smart' ICE setup.

You don't need a 500W rms amp to drive 1 12" sub at 2 ohm. If your 4 ch amp is capable maybe can run the rear channel in tri mode with the single 12" sub or run the front/rear speakers on 2 ch and bridge the rear for the 12" sub. A lot of possibilities depending on your hardware.

what about 5 channel amps, are they good in some way? since it's one off no need to run 2 amps.

 

[artnet]

now i had these item..
2 set component..just cheap 1..but not jln pasar type..
1 12" dvc sub
1 4ch amp
1 x-over
3350mp

i m finding a amp that can produce 500W rms...who can offer me??
will upgrade the component set 1 by 1..but now looking for the sub amp first..any suggestion?
budget quite low..around 500..

two channel for front comp.

two channels bridge for ur DVC running 4ohm? or amp capable for 2ohm(bridge)?

or one channel to one voice coil...
