Well after I get my new system(will have it in about 2 weeks!) Im getting a flip out monitor...now, Im not spending 1000 dollars for one, so I looked on ebay, and found one, and it comes with a head unit that supports dvd playback aswell.

Im not worried about getting a top of the line dvd head unit, just need something so I can watch movies on the flip out...so im picking this up deffinitly. Only question, this will be able to be sent to two amps right? If it says it only has one rca pre output means it can only be sent to one amp? so do I need something that has two pre outs?

Okay cool, what about my head unit...will any amount of power be fine for my amp and everything? It shouldnt effect that right? I mean...like it doesnt really matter about my head unit wattage right? Its all in the two amps im getting right?

Those are pretty decent speakers.

You dont NEED an amp, but having one would make them sound a little better. Somethin 50x4 rms

If you want to know what fits, go to crutchfield.com and use their "what fits my vehicle". It'll let ya know.

Those are the front speakers Im thinking about getting...how will they do...

Am I going to need an amp to run these? I figure yes...eventually I will get rear speakers to, but I'd rather get the fronts first...so I would just run all four speakers through an amp eventually...so...cheapest amp to match these speakers?

++Edit++ Ebay has this thing to see if the speakers are compatible with my car? and it says there not...not sure...what size would I need for a 92 civic coupe?

Any Decent Set of Coaxials shoudl be fine. if you're not amping them you wont normally hear a huge difference between coaxials. Those Elevations would do very nicely, though.

by ridr4lif » Sun Mar 19, 2006 8:27 pm

Justin is selling a set of Elevation coax's as well as components in the for sale section.

I'd check those out.

EDIT: http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/wiringwizard.asp
check that out to figure out how to wire subs together.

Okay, so I can run 2 subs nice. Okay Im gunna buy the Hifonics amp tommorow...nice, im siked now, heh. Also, Im thinking about getting 2 new front speakers for a 92 honda civic...seeing as im getting subs, new head unit and amp, I'll shell out a little more for 2 front speakers...what do you suggest. My budget will be running slim now, deffinitly...Chuck E Cheese isnt cuttin it, heh.

So any decent speakers that will equal out the sound and make it a little nicer will be nice...any suggestions?


You guys are gods...


Thanks

No. Mono amps can run multiple subs..in fact mono amps are often used for the sub stage. Efficiency is a lot higher with Class D Mono amps as opposed to Class A/B.

That amp is not 1ohm stable. It does 1000w MAX (not real power) @4ohms bridged. So really, what you're looking at is a 500x1@4ohm amplifier that will probably fail fairly soon.

Hifonics BX1205D

Viper D1200.1

Orion 1200D

Kicker KX1200.1

There are several options for you to check out. All of them are nice amplifiers for a fairly affordable price range.
