Speakers

[Stagier]

I have a 2001 Civic Lx coupe and i wanted to put new speakers in it since my radio is putting out more then my speakers can handle i also wanted to put a sub but im not sure of what size i would want yet somewhere between 10-15in.

 

[JPouliot]

was there a question you had? i would say a 10-12 inch sub

 

[Stagier]

i ment to ask how big are the speakers in my civic and is there 2 or 4 speakers

700 is more than what most peole are willing to spend. if you do the work yourself, you can do a ok system with that

 

[eggyhustles]

I know

Most people want the world and then some for 400-500

I have dudes come in the shop all the time saying "i want something real loud and clean" but only have 300 lol

 

[TigBitties]

lol when i worked at the shop before i went to college i hated that. You pay for what you get, things cost more for a reason. or they brag about their sony xplod. im like stfu you dont know what your talking about. i miss having a system sometimes

 

[Stagier]

eh im not trying to go for a perfect system just something better since my speakers keep going out and might as well add a sub since im ganna change the speakers. and thanks everyone for the replies

 

[Stagier]

and for subs im listen to alot of different things so thats why i wasnt sure about the sub

 

[TigBitties]

well the sub requires a lot more than changing a door speaker. a sub adds to all music though and is a very good addition

 

[Stagier]

yea but since i like metal i heard that a big sub wont be able to keep up with the double bass

 

[eggyhustles]

That's a myth

Sub size does not determine frequency response..enclosure does.

The system i posted is about as good as it'll get around your budget.

this is what i have its perfect for both rock or rap http://www.audio-warehouse.com/web/mdl/PSWB12/detail.asp the sound quality is amazing for the price also the quality of the subs and the box are extremely well built i have pounded the hell out of these subs for the past three years and there going strong they also have survived a roll over accident i had in my last car. the box itself is tuned specifically for the speakers and is extremely light it also fits perfectly in my trunk which is a 04 dx

the rest you can spend on high end components,amps and wires maybe even upgrade your grounds and battery.

listen to eggy. if im correct. both him and i worked/work in the car audio industry. my personal favorite for subs is the matts line. you can get them for that price area also

Yeah, i use to work at a shop. Now i just help them out with product selection.

 

[lowlife9]

i have worked for two different shops i have heard everything these were the best for the price . alot of shops sell these because of that reason so go listen for yourself.

 

[eggyhustles]

Yeah, i highly doubt you've heard everything.

it was a figure of speech buddy i have been around car audio before i was old enough to drive.
