I need to replace my rear speakers..I f*cked them up by accident..lets not say how but they sound nasty now...they were MA Audio speakers...pretty good for bass...what do you guys recommend as a replacement? I want loud and good sound quality especially bass...I dont have a sub...any recommendations appreciated...

 

get a sub

 

I need some info too. We don't have subs.

 

That will help to narrow things down a bit for those on the org recommending this stuff to you

 

Thats my point. If you want bass get a sub. 6x9's are not good replacments to get real sub bass. Get a sub. Give some money budgets and i'll post some suggestions.

 

I was thinking about getting a sub but I travel a lot and need all the trunk space I can get. My budget is up to $150

 

You don't have to eat up alot of trunk space..box's can be made in alot of fashons. I suggest looking for a good free air 8 to put in the deck. ONly problem is with 150 bucks you don't have enough to really get a sub and amp. I say save up then get somthing good.

 

My budget is $500. I have a Clarion Headunit now. Everything else is stock. What kind of speakers should I get?

 

Subs or speakers? If speakers where do you want to put them. If subs what do you want out of them( loud, sq, loud sq)?

 

Whats an air 8?

 

Not air 8. Free air. I suggest finding a 8" sub that you can mount in the deck and run free air style. Using no acual box. Like the bose system comes with.

 

I'll consider that. Thanks!

 

or consider a jl audio stealth box. they are made to take as little trunk space as possible and i think they arent more than 400. not sure though

 

On the cheap side I'd look at RF he series. I have 2 twelves in the trunk and they're plenty. Go more expensive and move up to so JL audio w3's. For amps I would check out some of the older MTX amps. Good build quality and output is nice. Very clean amps as well. You can get an older 100 x 2 for around 200 bucks or even less. 200 for the amp and a bout 300 for the subs.

 

for $500 i reccomend lanzar. get in on those before people find out how good they are and start chargin mb quart prices

 

Dude, I travel a lot too that's why I have a 12" sub in a small box. The bass is stupendous. When I need the space, I take the box out. I usually won't isten to it when I take the box out because it sounds cheap.

 

I have an 8" sub in a bandpass enclosure, very light and tiny, laying around my closet, I can sell way under $150. Hook this baby up to a 250-w amp and you got yourself a nice bass. For $150 you'll be able to get my sub AND have enough money to buy an amplifier.
