My budget is about... $150-200... i was looking at these Polk Audio.. Any Advice?

http://www.crutchfield.com/S-yJj2dlu...10&I=107DB6500

ill be running them off a nice Alpine V12 MRV-F407

about 100watts x2 bridged..

 

spend another 50 and get some rainbows from don...you won't regret it.

 

Does Rainbow have a website? or anything..? or maybe Don? lol.. ive heard lots of stuff about Rainbow, but ive never actually seen them

 

http://rainbow-audio.de/ . id comment on how good slc's are but im still waiting for the mailman to deliver them *nudges don*

 

Which set of components am i looking at with $250??

 

SLC265s

 

The SLC's are an amazing set. I think they will beat the pants off anything in their price range.

 

How would i purchase these from you Sir Don? Accept Paypal or anything like that?

 

He does accept paypal. Just PM him, and he will get back to you shortly.

 

Wait a second... the alpine only PUSHES out 60watts per channel.. and the nominal wattage for the SLCs is 100watts... Time to upgrade... or will that be ok for now?

But bridged into 4 ohm its 160watts... but arent they already 4ohm speakers? which bridging them together would equal a 2OHM Load?

 

Is the alpine a 2 or 4 channel amp? And yes, 60watts is just fine until you can upgrade.

 

Its a 4 channel amp, its a V12 MRV-F407, i posted about it a while back, i think the thread was titled, Alpine AMPs old or new..

 

Ok, bridged @4ohms it will be a great amp for those comps. No need to upgrade.

 

Yeah, but doesnt bridging 2- 4Ohm speakers create a 2Ohm load??

 

You have 4 channels. Bridge 1+2 to one door, then bridge 3+4 to the opposite door. Those two channels, each stable at 4ohms, will be seeing 4ohms from the components. I am doing the same thing right now. If you are having some trouble with this, you might want to find someone that has experience in the area to either do it, or show you how.

 

Oh yeah, thats right 4 channel amp.. I misunderstood and was thinking like i was hooking up my 2 subs up to my 2 channel amp.. sorry! hehe

Did you run new wires? or do you think that the stock wires can hold 160watts?
