skyline[32] Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I'm looking to get a system for a Gts-t 32 but having a bit of trouble picking the right brand. I've sort of cut it down to Alpine, Soundstream, Fusion or JBL. Can anyone recommend something thats got performance? no matter the price. Thanks.

oRiCLe Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 hmm, i can reccomend these brands from hearing them, have fun with the sub box in the boot be interested to see how you go about the boot install, i've found it a bit of a squeeze... - DD (if your after SPL and no matter about price ) - cerwin vega - fusion - JL - pioneer comp ones - high end rockford forsgate more SQ style... - Eclipse - boston acoustics hmm. so many to choose from...i took the fusion approach myself... as for sub amps, jaycar is good value for money...havent really tried any others...

jlaudio_33 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 i would say you should forget about what brand to focus on for the moment as you haven't said whether you prefer the sound of 10s 12s 15s 18s also what type of music you listen to whether you prefer one sub or two what type of box you are planning to run how much power you are going to put in and how much you intend to spend on an amp Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/98932-subs-and-amps/#findComment-1802727 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlaudio_33 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 6 x 9s and subs, why? you will presumably be high passing your speakers at approx 80 hz anyway defeating the purpose of havin 6x9s to get a bit of extra bass plus just my personal opinion but they sound shit Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/98932-subs-and-amps/#findComment-1802737 Share on other sites More sharing options...
oRiCLe Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 hehe i had was soo close to fitting, if only the rear windscreen wiper motor diddnt sit so low it would have fitted :S depends if u like ur boot space or not i guess hehe 6" splits in the front doors, rear fill is upto you if u want it, im only running 6" front splits and sub at the moment, gonna put another set of splits in later, and as for 6x9s...no thanks, not for me, go to an autobarn store or similar and listen to the difference... oh and as for brands of splits, depends on the budget, i like MTX, kenwood are good, fusion, peerless are really nice but bit too expensive for my budget , focal...but best bet is to take music u like to a store and sound test them as it comes down to personal preference... head units, i like Alpine, JVC is good, as is kenwood & pioneer...depends on the features u want Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/98932-subs-and-amps/#findComment-1802742 Share on other sites More sharing options...
