I have 2 amps right now, a rockford p5002 (125x2 or 500x1) and an alpine mrh-f255 (25x4 +80x1 or 40wx2 +80x1). I was given the alpine and I got the rockford for very cheep, and I would like to use these to build my system. along with the rockford were 2 12" sony xplod(5sided) subs rated at 380w continuous. I only want to use one of these, and I would like to get a midbass driver as well and drive it off the 5th channel of the alpine. my big question is whether to put 6.5" component's in the front doors and bridge them, or to get 25w 6.5" components in the front and rear.
the car is an 03 civic hatchback, the front and rear speakers are about equal distance from my ears, there are tweeters on the sail panels (will be replaced with better tweeters) and I think I will be placing the midbass in the front consol as there is a lot of empty room under the shifter between the footboxes. the sub will be mounted on one of the sides in the hatch, probably glassed in and ported, the amps mounted on the other side of the hatch.
I'd like a stereo that sounds better than my last one: a jeep cherokee with 4 infinity referance fullrange 6.5s powered from the headunit and a 12" base level audiobahn sub running off a lanzar vibe ??? that put out about 150-180 on a good day (actually the sub sounded just fine and I usually turned it down to "blend" better with the speakers.
so, 4 25w components or 2 50w components? which will sound better and allow more volume? I dont turn up the music that much, but I want plenty of volume headroom before any clipping or distortion happens
