sound system

looking to upgrade my sound sysytem on a budget...currently only front speakers workin...any idead on brand/price..its a cabby so im not puttin speakers in the parcel shelf...lookin for 4 speakers for doors/doorcards,and amp and a sub...nothing to loud,just something with a good solid thump...thanks lads

I would suggest something like alpine type r component speakers or infinity comp components run off an amp, this way you won't need to change the head unit and speakers like these have a hood sized magnet which when used with an appropriate amp should provide a nice controlled sound with good bass notes and good clarity! Mutant do good budget amps- get a 4 channel amp so you can run 2 sets of speakers- front and rear, however beware- with speakers and amps you get what you pay for sound quality wise!!

Hope this helps!  :wink:

nickl...cheers mate..some great advice there and a good starting base for my research..off to surf the net in search of some speakers

If you can some 20cm components then that would provide best sound quality however it will mean getting some adaptor cups as I think as standard your car will probably take 13cm speakers- these will sound good if you get some good ones bu a 20 cm cone will be best! Alpine type r can be expensive but you can get some good second hand ones- also look at the alpine type s speakers- these are the year before type r rebranded so still sound good and are cheaper! I have both 20cm type r and infinitys in my cars and my bro has the type s and type r- all sound great! Jbl are also good- as well as there amps to be fair! U

should there be speakers in the doorcards in the rear just checked mine and no sound coming out?...is there any direct replacements for the ones in the front pods at the moment?

Just an idea for some decent priced products.

great thanks...cant see anything about delivery....do they deliver to the republic?

i see now they do actually...thanks

No idea about speakers in the rear of cabbies I'm affraid- you should be able to get speaker pods or cups for there from some where and as far As I'm aware the speakers in the front should be 13cm ones but there are
plenty of adaptor pods out there for fitting 20cm ones instead!
