need alil help on sum accessories:
i got a couple of projects in mind.
1. high octane r34 or jdubb custom wide fender body kit.
BUT FIRST
2. nice sound system.(most of it was from my old max that burnt up last year)
well, i've started collecting pieces for the system and almost done.
pioneer avh7490 - ebay for 450 bucks (it had alil problem but fixed at certified pioneer repair shop) haven't try it yet.
pioneer 6 cd changer - serve its purpose, 50 bucks at best buy.
mmats 6.5 speaker (1 pair) - loud as hell, can't afford another pair.
3 12"rockford HX2 subs - (500w rms, 1000 max) - subs still tight, haven't really broke'em in.
4 channel apline amp - descent amp, can't complain
mono channel kole audio amp (1000w max) - honestly, i'm changing this amp when i get more money.
optima yellow top - battery for the trunk.
2 legacy 7.2 monitors - they're wack as hell. no tft, no hi-res, no no no, but i'm thinking putting them in the trunk for display.

so can n -e - body reccomend sum component 6.5 speakers that won't break my wallet but still push 100w rms and ....bass amp that push over 1000w rms.( please don't say legacy or rockwood...lol)
thanks!!!

 

how much money you got? for the components and for the amp?

 

Powerbass components are petty good. They cost like 80 max depending which set you order and they do 120rms/240max.

 

For cheap amps htat do there rated power look for a Planet Audio on ebay. For components, I just bought a set of 6.5 PG Xenon Components for 100 shipped from Ikesound.

 

im not too worried on price.
on components - gotta push 100 rms
bass amp - gotta push 1000w rms

 

So which is it? Can we get a roundabout number?

 

Get rainbow components and diamond amp make sure you get top of the line since money's not an issue

 

If you're not worried about price.... get these. $400 a set. They sound awesome, I'm getting a set upcoming tax return

For an amp... the MCD1100 from Memphis is awesome. But that's if your system is operating @ 1 ohm,

They do have the option to bridge amps. And their modules make it really simple. Or you can get the MCD4000 (MAD MAX) But I don't those amps are very cost effective.

 

Rainbow Reference will only run ya $9,900 for the set. Lemme know when ya wanna order. Its a 30day wait time since theyre hand made per order and built to your likings.

 

Hey Don is back ... I left you a post to answer about the new M1s.

Here's a link http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=429718

 

The PG's are 150 watt RMS a side. If you dont liek those look into CDT EF Series. Very good drivers. I suggest you go to a shop and listen for yourself, everyone's music taste is very different.

 

if your looking to keep it mid price range I would say the old orion hcca millenium sets. their listed on ebay from robot underground all the time. Like the old soundstreams their two ohm so they present a bridged load to your amp to double up your wattage. If your looking to go highend with no pricetag hurting your feeling get with don.
I was extremely happy with my infinity perfects, diamond audio hex's, as well as the mid bass from a set of polk momos- the tweeters arent the best but they do have good sound. The eclipses offer really nice components as well. those are just what ive run in this car.

Amplifier wise I may have a jl e6450 i may let go, depends what i come across this week if your interested.

amp wise look at the old soundstream stuff and the hifonics. wont break the bank and will give you enough watts

 

my bad....bout 200-250 bucks max for components and 350 max for bass amp.
i've heard beymas speakers, they hurt my ears but the tweeters are too big to fit in the pillar. i was thinking of mmats dhc1400w amp, what do u think?

 

i had one of the mmats d100hc beautiful. Well not the amp more like the output LOL. If your looking to do that much look at
MMAts high current stuff
as well as
US AMPS

I can get you an orion 275 for about 220 also. but you have to bridge to one ohm mono. for components get with don, you should be able to get into something decent for 250 300 area.

 

alright..the great DOn....i heard great things bout ya. so, what u think about cdt components that push 100-130watts rms? or focal components that push 150rms?
or do u have sumthin in the 200-250bucks range that push in the area of watts continuously?

 

it looks like the great METAL MAXIMA will be working on my car next.
i'd checked on cdt components and for the price and rms 150.00 isn't bad at all.

 

I like the Rainbow SLC's ALOT for that price range. You could probably do low line Focal as well.

 

yeah..focals are hot....my friend has a gs300 with focal high end components(bout 300.00) and they hurt my ears when he plays Mariah carey.lol....neway...the joint is clear and loud, a block radius worth.
the rainbows, where can i get them? i plan on trying different components til im satisfied.

 

Give teh Don a ring. You will NOT be dissapointed with a set of Rainbows.

 

My ProFi Vanadiums amaze me every time.

 

For Focal, $300 is really their entry level. A good set of components/tweets should not hurt your ears at all even for long play periods.

I carry Rainbows.

 

Thanks Dan and Nuno for the support.

 

rainbow speakers....well im new to these.please, can you inform me on these speakers?

 

What is that you'd like to know?

 

spence,

You'll love the rainbows. I took a chance on them based on a lot of people's recommendations from the org and they're definitely the best sounding speakers I've ever heard.

 

Alright...well most of my friends have expensive equipment in their cars and i trying to be on somewhat a budget cuz i'm tryin 2 get a house. one has focal, others has beymas and i'm trying to be loud and clear like them but i'm open to other products that r just as good (but affordable).
i don't about rainbows and cdt have everybody on the org is always mentioning.i tryin to buy some components soon.

 

The SLC's will fit the bill. Don can hook you up. And for Rainbow, http://www.rainbow-car-audio.de/

I just picked up a set of last years Contours. I have head the Profi, ProfiVanadiums, and SLC's and would highly recommend any of their lines.

 

alright..well i've started on the system so far. sorry i didn't take pics of the install, but here's the list of things put in.
Pioneer dvd indash (ol skool - play while drivin)
front components - boston acoustics 5.25"
rear components - mmats 6.5"
hx2 12" rockfords
alpine 4 channel
kole audio mono 1000w (actually not bad, i thought it suck a$$)
4 5" blue leds under dash n seats
1 10" blue led in truck
check my cardomain page.(there's a link on the first page to the 2k2 gray lustre-mid section)

 

Ummm 5.25s???

 

5.25" for the front? 6.75 bishes...

 

umm 5 1/4..is that better to understand? its smaller than my mmats components.

 

Yea thats the point, why did you pick smaller ones?

 

well..i didn't pick it....its hand me down from my best friend, but it loud as hell.especially the tweeters.he told me he paid almost 400 bucks on these.

 

I'd put the matts up front and move the 5.25's into Kick panels. There will be a nice front soundstage.

 

yeah..i'll probably do that when i buy a 6 channel amp.
