Looking to upgrade my Audio Sound Sys.using my current OEM Radio on my 2020 Kia Telluride LX. I reached out to Crutchfield and he suggested the following components based on my preference of listening to Christian Salsa Music giving a live concert vibe. They are: (Infinity REF607CF frnt spkr's) Infinity REF607F rear spkr's) (Kicker 46HS10 Hideaway subwoofer with 10"sub/180 watt amp) ( Kicker 47KEY200.4, compact 4-chan amplifier with auto tuning DSP-50 watts RMSx4). along with wiring kit CK12. ( Total $939.810). I highly value your expertise on the above components especially after viewing your video.

@dippitydoinit 9 ай бұрын

Maybe consider what car you're putting the system into and what you want out of it. I.E: If you're driving a Hellcat with a super loud exhaust then expect the low end to get drowned out by that exhaust. Sound deadening is key. A quiet car = better sound. If you start with a quiet car then usually it will cost less to get a good sounding system. That is assuming you're not trying to be the DJ for the entire block.

I'm trying to figure out how to upgrade a stereo without losing the ability to modify various in built car features. I have a 2006 mountaineer and the OEM stereo has controls under a setup menu for changing features like whether the running boards deploy automatically or stay up or down. And other features like auto locks when in gear, lights staying on for various time lengths are all controlled through the OEM stereo. So how can I make sure I can access these features with a new stereo?

Hello Josh I bought a 8” Kicker Q Class rated for 500RMS. I will run it ported. I have a Kicker CXA1200.1 amp. Should I run the amp at 4 ohms at 600rms or 2ohms at 600rms? For what I understand 4 ohm shouldn’t give me a better SQ. But if I run at 4 ohms it’s maxed out where if I run it at 2 ohm it’s only half capacity. What would you set the amp to and why?

@JeTLiFe. Жыл бұрын

Your Kicker CXA1200.1 amp is going to give your sub 1200 watts at 2 ohms or 600 watts at 4 ohms. You will overpower that sub if you run it at 2 ohms.

You can't have too much Bass. Go with 500W RMS Amp on 300 Watt Driver or a larger Amp 1000W with 75% of rated capacity set for drivers (you want to leave some 'Head Room') so a couple of 12" on a 1000W should work nicely depending on quality and power rating of drivers...

When you say to use an amp that's rated power is 20% to 25% than the speaker rating, you're talking about RMS or are you referring to peak power? I'm assumming RMS.

RMS is the only rating that matters, with one caveat. If you're looking at an item and see that the peak or max power is 3 or 4 times the RMS then that generally means it is low quality. Quality products sell themselves and don't need an inflated max power rating.

Can anyone help? I am thinking of purchasing the aftermarket Eonon Q04PRO stereo system. I want to do a big bass custom audio upgraded system in my R34 Nissan Skyline Sedan. I dont want my fenders rattling, but I am willing to go as high as I can with power right before the rattle would even occur. Any advise?! The Eonon unit says there is a built in DSP, so this is good? But can't find any further specs for it. Also the following: - Max Amp Output 4x48W - A 48-band graphic equalizer - Power Bandwidth: 20-18KHZ - RMS power (CTA-2006): 18W - RMS power (manufacturer): 24W - Peak Output: 33W - Preamp Outputs: 5- Channel

A good class AB five channel amp putting out around 80-100 watts per channel ×4 and decent power coming out of the sub channel ( depending on what sub you'll be using and music type ) should make your system punchy without rattle . I use the Rockford Fosgate PUNCH series speakers in my doors and deck . Nice mid bass and clear high frequency sound reproduction without breaking your bank acct or rattling the doors to death .
