I'm going to replace the speakers in my 98 blazer. Would it be worth it to put components in the back or just have components in the front and coaxials in the back? i plan on my this amp http://www.bestbuy.c...3&skuId=4769803 and these are the components i want to buy http://www.sonicelec...e-SPS-610C.html
If its not worth i plan to buy alpine type s coaxials

No need to have rear Speakers. Just spend your money on good ones for your front doors.

Unless you there are people riding in the back regularly, you will be happier spending more on better speakers up front.

I have experience with the Type-S' and I don't think they are that good. I have Type-R 6x8s and they sound much better than the Type-S'.

Just buy a better set of comps for the front stage. Forget the rear speakers, that will leave you more money for the front ones. (you will need only a 2 ch amplifier).

If you're set on Alpine, try the type R or even X.

As Hoffman's iron law goes, Efficient enclosure, low frequency extension, or small space, pick two.

Do you have a sub in the back? If you dont, then, might as well put a comp or coaxial in the rear.

Hmm didnt see your other thread, disregard the above.

Don't install anything in the rear. Put all of your speaker funds towards the front speakers. If you absolutely must have rear speakers, just keep the stock speakers.

Also, don't use the amp on the rear speakers. Bridge it to the front speakers. If you must use rear speakers, just power them off of the headunit.

Then keep the rears stock ran off of HU power and put all of your amplifier power and $$ to the front speakers.

Do you have any sound deadening installed?

the power pack is a waste of money, you can get a decent 2 or 4 channel for less.

Why do you have a capacitor?

dont ask...



Please tell me you dipped that in oil

I understand i can get one for less but its much more of a hassle to install a 2 channnel. My buddy has the power pack on some kickers and it's won of the best component sytems i've ever heard and i go to spls all the time and listen to just their speakers

don't blame the lack of rears for a poor install

Please read my posts with care. I do not pull punches, but state exactly what is on my mind. My goal is to make you think, make you try harder and to improve yourself AND this forum. This doesn't mean that I don't like you, am being aggressive towards you, or have any other hidden meaning. Instead look at it as me trying to make you better. In no way at all should your butt be hurt by my posts. If so, read it differently. You agreed to taking criticism when you joined, doesn't mean that you have to choose to take it personally. The more effort you put into your threads and posts, the more I will in return. What you get out of it is up to you.

I was. Super proud I didn't shit my pants. I was sure it was going to happen.

We sit on the same bench. Your "asshole" just makes me curious.

it wasn't a poor install. He had them installed by the best place in my area. I just like having an all around sound not just in the front stage
