Hi all…thinking of the following in my Aussie 3 door ST. Any thoughts and advice welcome.
Amp
Pioneer D9604 - ($327) Pioneer GM-D9604 4 channel Class FD Amplifier - GMD9604
Speakers
Budget option - Polk MM6501 - ($329) Polk Audio MM6501 6.5inch Component Speakers - MM6501
Non budget option!!! - Rainbow Germanium 6.5 - RAINBOW GL-C6.2
Bass
Budget option - two of these in the rear stock locations on each side of the rear seats - Kicker 6.75in Comp RT2 - 6.75" CompRT Subwoofer - 2 Ohm | KICKER®
OR
One of these under the passenger seat - Kicker HS8 - Kicker HS8 8" Ultra-Compact Powered Subwoofer - Subwoofers - Car Audio
So regardless of which front splits I get, the setup would be
OPTION A
run the two kicker 6.5in subs in the rear side panels using two of the channels from the amp which will provide around 100 to 130 watts per side RMS
run the front splits off the other two channels 100 to 130w per side
OPTION B
run the self powered HS8 under the seat.
Bridge the amp to 2 x 300 and run the front speakers off that
Down the track I could get a processor so I can run the front stage active but this is just more expense.
