I'm looking to step up the MJs audio in the very near future, the 6 1/2s in the doors are getting boing.

 

looking for some 6x9s in the rear corners and some kind of slim series subwoofer.

 

I have a little experience wiring up speakers and did a sub once, but I'm pretty lost on what to get and all that.

 

 

130+ dB is a bit much though.

The fact that you need ear protection to listen to your stereo is ridiculous.

Willy,

I totally agree, a totally senseless wast of time, money and effort. Don't get me wrong, a nice sounding stereo is something I too enjoy. Buy pushing the envelope to ear drum busting levels is complete foolishness.

Buy a nice head unit, and a good quality brand of speakers. You will enjoy a quality listening experience, and well as keep your hearing till the end of your days .....

I have about a 150$ Alpine head unit and excellent quality Infinity speakers. My fronts are component 5 1/4's with separate tweeters and crossovers. Then 4x6 in the rear in fact locations. I have thought about a small amp a couple times, but its not necessary as this setup affords me plenty of good quality sound.

I had you beat by .1 dB in Baby, back when she had a stereo in it. It was just a little old Pioneer head unit, 2 12" Kicker Comp VR4's in small boxes, and a 300W amp (yes, that's all the amp was, and the dB was verified via a dB drag I was in). There's pics of the setup on here somewhere, but I don't really want (or have the time to) dig them up right now. I can add them again if need be when I get home later this week.

My deck was free (from a friend that upgraded), the subs were $80 each, the amp I actually found in a junkyard car for $25, and the friend that gave me the deck built the boxes and gave me the wiring for $20. So, all told I only had $205 into it :brows: .

 

Sold the subs and boxes off so I could afford a water pump for her.
