That would power the subs fine...but it's only a 2ch, so you'll have the weeny HU amp powering the other speakers

[RustyFuknut]

how much would a weeny HU amp be?

Tom

[mini_basser]

Like I said above 20w RMS (at most)!

[RustyFuknut]

Can I just get a better head unit?

[philster]

yeah you don't really want to consider running the comps off the headunit (or anything for that matter).

Would these 2 amps do?

JBL GTO75.2 to power the comps

JBL GTO75.4 to power the subs (bridged from 4 into 2 channels)

That would cost you £180 for the pair which i think would be money well spent.

The kenwood is good but a little pricey and for the sake of an extra £40 you can have 2 good amps with more than enough power.

[RustyFuknut]

i like those amps alot but I think they are just physically too big?

Ill try my best to re-do my design and see If I can find a spot for em.

Hmmmm, I may have found a way to fit this one...

Is this amp now out of the question with the revised set up?

http://www.caraudiod...86423d99179710d

It would probably fit if i worked it like this...is this in any way a bad position for the 2 subs? I can only draw one on paint



Tom

[philster]

yeah its not quite up to the job of powering the RE's.

Can you not put the amps in the boot?

[RustyFuknut]

Spose I could aye, want to do something with the rear if you know what I mean? I have it free because of the rollbar so wouldnt mind some stuff goin on back there other than subs if you know what I mean.

[RustyFuknut]

Heres a thought lol. I dont have to show both of the subs, So ill just show one and hide the other, can amps be mounted upside down? I could just put the other one on the underside of the board if you know what I mean.

[philster]

could you not mount one amp like this and then the other in the boot

Yup, cant see why not do you think the enclosures for the subs would be big enough for them to fit?

If so we may have a final set-up? (finally!)

Head Unit - http://www.caraudiod...d1ba7d0399c37b1

Amp 1 - http://www.caraudiod...86423d99179710d

Amp 2 - http://www.caraudiod...86423d99179710d

Componant Speakers - http://www.caraudiod...25174e40b67bf13

Subs - http://www.caraudiod...25174e40b67bf13

Comes to a Grand total Of.... £584.95

Any Objections/Suggestions? Should this all work?

Also, What wiring kit would I need?

All the best

Tom

[RustyFuknut]

Or I could go with the original Head Unit you suggested (now I know it comes in red! )

http://www.caraudiod...25174e40b67bf13

Whats the difference between this and the one I listed?

Im guessing its pretty significant as theres nearly 100 quid price difference (if they werent reduced)

All the best

Tom

[mini_basser]

You might as well get the cheaper one if you are on a budget Means you can spend a little more on things like wiring, as you will need some distribution blocks for the 2 amps

I like the look of that final set up You've got a few options for speakers in that price range, but it's all down to personal preference at the end of the day

I'd go with the CAD value 4awg kit
