Hi guys!

Here is what I want to do. Buy a new HU, Components, rear door speakers, rear deck speakers and a amp to power the new speakers.

My question, is what type of amp do I need? And how will I run the wires to the amp? For ex. Where will the component (in the front including tweeters) wires run to on the amp, where will the rear door speaker wires run to the amp and where do the rear deck speaker wires run to the amp? That is if I get a 4 channel amp or is there another amp with more channels?

Please assist.

Thanks!

Btw, I have a PAC converter for my subwoofer to change the factory HU to make them have RCA outputs. Since I will be replacing the HU, I guess that there should be a set of pre-amp outputs to run to the amp for the subwoofer and to run to the amp for the new speakers.

I just need a lot of help!

Thanks!

 

I've got the same question about the exact same car. Let's bump this!!

 

Jesus, dude. That is waaaaayyyyy too many questions at one time. Let's start with the obvious: how much are you looking to spend?

 

First question, what is your budget?

 

Since we're all posting the same question.

What's the most you'll spend?

 

I just wanna know if a four channel Apline amp at 55 x 4 rms will be enough for the front door speakers, rear door speaker, and rear deck.

 

Oops, I meant Alpine

 

depends on what you get. COMPLETELY!!! A 55x4 amp might be good depending on your choice of speakers. Ill be running an ARC 4150XXK with the Rainbow Profi/kickbass, and I definately know that the Alpine amp would not be powerful enough for that.

Again, whats your budget?

 

I was planning on doing Alpine Type-S's all the way around; in the front and rear doors and the rear deck. If I wired the amp through the factory speaker leads, would that even the power distribution from 4 channels to all 6 speakers? The Type-S's are 40 watts rms each, so that's 240 watts total rms. The Alpine pushes 220 watts total. The speakers are pretty sensitive so I figure they will play loud.

 

By the way, I have a 6th gen non-bose.

 

Sure, sounds like that should work. 40w speakers? does anybody know for sure if thats a downgrade from stock?

 

before you make your speaker decision, check out http://car.rainbow-audio.de/home/home.php?lan=3, they have plenty of different price ranges and i assure you that youll be happier with any product you purchase made by them.

 

Watts RMW are a thermal rating and does not mean that you will be pushing 40watts.
