Can anyone help me testing a pair of 6x9s before i go and try installing them in my car??

My mate just sold his old car and took out all his old speakers and gave me these ones, they went well too, and of course they were free.... just not sure if they are in good nick

you will have to hook them up to you headunit or amp to test them properly. you could also test the impedence with a multimeter but its better to hear them going...

budget?

by **jafa.and.proud** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 10:40 am

Yea budget is a biiig factor with components, with being able to spend less than $100 if your thrifty up to $800+ sometimes

For rears try and get some 6" mids as opposed to 6x9s

Some 6.5" Components, Pauls Audio in CHCH are doing a sale on Focal components and will deliver to auckland. Focal make some very very very very good speakers.

In the back a 6.5" mid bass would be all you need, or nothing at all. Just a sub. If ive got my setup in my car before you buy yours you can come have a listen. Ive only got some 6.5" speakers and a tiny 10" sub.

My install has come to a grinding halt though, im awating some tools to cut holes in the firewall :twisted:

Ive seen those Poineer components before and they sound good the speekers have a kevlar cone??

at the moment im not going for an amp, and am going to run them off the head unit, its a VDO dayton CD 2604 MP3x Head unit, it had 55w x 4

Shoud this be enough??

by **86_rolla** » Sat Dec 24, 2005 11:51 am

you should see if u can get some PBX's fro parallel if u no anyone from up here $150 and ive heard they r mint for the price. Itll be alrite for the time being but in the long rund ull want an amp

Running off head unit is ok.

But there really is a huge difference even with a small amp.

How many hudie do you want to make? For $300 you can get those focals, usually $400. Hand made in france and all.

Those pioneer bullet speakers are alright too, and the yellow kevlar ones are alright too, for the price the PBX evos are probably better.
