New member need advice

[sam-111]

Dear friends ,
i have an accord 2006 and iam planing to fix a new audio system any advice? and what about XPLODE from sony ?

Glad to hear you're ready to upgrade. There are a couple of things you want to consider. Will you be installing the new system, or having them installed? Is it a whole system upgrade, just a new head unit, or new speakers? How much are you willing to spend? Do you want a sound system that rattles the floor, or just sound that is a little louder and still crisp? IMO sony is an okay upgrade for cars with blown out factory speakers, but you have a 2006, so how bad could they be? I personally have Alpine speakers all around and highly recommend them. I also hear that Pioneer has really great products at reasonable prices. It all depends. What kind of upgrade did you have in mind?

Thank you for ur reply . money wise i have an open budget , what iam looking for is a system that ratteles the floor , but my question is ? where to fix the subwoofers ? and the bazooka if it is possible to install one ? how many amplifier should i fix ? and what is the solution u suggest so that the 9/6 inch speakers dont make noise since it's fixed on a very weak plate ? for the radio unit i already fixed the JVC KD-AVX2 with 5.1 dts and 4 rc out . . i appreciate ur help and thank you in advance .

Im going to assume that by fix, you mean install? Well, I'm personally not a fan of rides with floor rattling sound systems. But for what it's worth, I believe mos people install their Subs into sub boxes, usually sold wherever you bought your subs, and then install those in their trunk, same goes for amps, they usually go upside down and out of the way inside the trunk...at least thats how it's installed on my Jetta (my only car with an amp) "How many amps"? lol, jeez bud, well, I'd say one...maybe a big one?

Bazooka and explode - fizzle (not floor shaking)....

Check out:

Alpine head units
Alpine amps for MIDS AND HIGHS
ECLIPSE/JL for SUB AMPS
JL W3 Dual Voice Coil
Custom made box
Boston Acoustics components.....

Since you got the money - go high end you wont be sorry... ALSO - Dynomat your car so it wont shake apart!!!!!!!

i got 3 jlw6 10in 2 amp for the subs an 1 ampfor the mids an alpine speakers all around. just want to give you a idea how to bump

I have two 07 Kicker cvr 12's powered by a SPL audio 1600watt 2 channel amp...But make sure if you get 12's do not buy a ported box, you will not get the low bass that they are made for... I have the system in my 95 integra and people can hear me from a half a mile away...The price is worth it if u think about it.

I agree with the dynomat... but sony is a good brand!

I run an xplod head in my car and it has outlasted three cars! Alpine sounds like a good choice until you do research and find out they are made by the same people who make pyramid and pyle!

but too each his own

lol i jus basically sorta have a ghetto system runnin i think my front speakers r walmart my rears are old kicker 6x9 and my sub is a pyle and my amp is crunch lol so many different brands im gunna work on getting front speakers here soon right now im thinkin about halo projectors

Dynomat is the best for the rattling. If you really want the floor to rattle with subwoofer i suggest you also add a epicenter so you can control just the subwoofer, it makes a big difference.
