    Which amp is right for my NVX Components

    Thanks everyone for the replies! I got the new 600.2 in the mail today and installed it almost immediately. I haven't tuned the amp yet since it started raining, but so far the speakers sound very clear and a great bang for the buck. I've had a couple different brands in the truck so far for all around the same price and these sound better for sure!

    Which amp is right for my NVX Components

    Perfect. Thank you guys!! And for the fast replies! I was thinking the same, but wanted to double check with people on here.
  3. Hey everyone! So I just purchased some of NVX 6-1/2" V-Series 2-way components since I wanted to give them a try. Looking into a new amp for just these speakers only. Curious what you think about these two amps? There around the price I want to spend and I am not 100% on sticking with this brand, but ive had good luck with these amps over the years so I figured I would stick with them. Here are the component specs: 6-1/2" V-Series 2-way Component Speaker System Peak: 280 watts per set / 140 watts each side 140 watts per set / 70 watts each side 4 ohms impedance and here are the two amps im looking at and curious which one would work better for my application Orion CB300.2 Cobalt Series 2 Channel Amplifier RMS Watts @ 4 Ohm Stereo 14.4V: 60 Watts X 2 Channel / RMS Watts @ 2 Ohm Stereo 14.4V: 80 Watts X 2 Channel / RMS Watts @ 4 Ohm Bridge 14.4V: 160 Watts RMS Power Watts: 300 Watts / Max Power Watts: 600 Watts Frequency Response 10Hz~36KHz(-3dB) Signal Noise Ratio: 90dB Hi Pass Freq. 50Hz-4KHz / Low Pass Freq. 40Hz-500Hz Orion CB600.2 Cobalt Series 2 Channel Amplifier RMS Watts @ 4 Ohm Stereo 14.4V: 110 Watts X 2 Channel / RMS Watts @ 2 Ohm Stereo 14.4V: 160 Watts X 2 Channel / RMS Watts @ 4 Ohm Bridge 14.4V: 160 Watts X 1 Channel RMS Power Watts: 320 Watts / Max Power Watts: 1200 Watts Frequency Response 10Hz~36KHz(-3dB) Signal Noise Ratio: 90dB Hi Pass Freq. 50Hz-4KHz / Low Pass Freq. 40Hz-500Hz Thanks guys!
  4. Appreciate the feedback guys thanks! Ya its a low budget Orion amp I got way before I knew much about car audio. Not sure the exact model name.. but you guys pretty much said it. Think ill just buy a new one Thanks again!
  5. Hi guys! Its been awhile since I have last been on here. So after many tests of swapping speakers/ crossovers, checking RCAs it comes down to my amp has an issue with the speaker outputs on the left side of the outputs only. The right side works completely fine after swapping speaker wires from left to right. There is sound, but its very fuzzy/dull and almost sounds blown. Can this easily be fixed maybe? Maybe from a member on here? The amp is an Orion 600 watt 2 Channel amp. The amp was maybe purchased in 2007/2008 brand new. Maybe just the age and daily wear and tear its time for a new one? Thanks guys!!

    what replacement 6.5s would work?

    haha. i agree about going to a show and listening to different speakers. just not to many shows going on around my town. i do agree thats the best way to make a decision. however, i may try out the IA comps. read on here many people like them. thanks for the help everyone

    what replacement 6.5s would work?

    Ive been looking into these speakers from awhile back. they not to great? they will be hooked to a 600watt 2 channel orion amp. http://www.audiosavings.com/products/Car-Audio-And-Video/NEW-RE-AUDIO-RE6.5C-6.5-COMPONENT-CAR-SPEAKERS-6-1-2/RE6.5C.aspx http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/store/products/Incriminator-Audio-I-Series-6.5%22-Components.html what u guys think?

    what replacement 6.5s would work?

    i was debating a new set. just not sure which ones, but figure i would ask out of curiousity about re using the crossovers and tweeters. if i did get a new componet set i would "like" to keep it around 150 give or take a little more. im putting these speakers in the stock location with not a lot of depth. so im a little restricted on which ones to get. guess ill start looking around Oh and both driver and passenger side speakers are dead
  9. My Mb Quart pvi 216 6.5 componets went out and i was curious what speakers i could replace them with? i honestly was not to happy with these speakers so any brand would work just something that will mesh with the crossovers and tweeters. what would you guys recommend? really could use the help with what 6.5 speakers to get. price im flexable with and im putting these in a 2001 f150. thanks! here are the specs of the kit brand new.. Features: 6-1/2" Premium Series 2-Way Component Speakers System Power Handling: Peak: 140 watts RMS: 70 watts [*]Polypropylene cone woofer [*]Rubber surround [*]1.5" Titanium "Widesphere" tweeters with neodymium magnets [*]Magnet system with silver lacquered specially designed metal cover for additional cooling and protection [*]Connection terminals gold-plated allowing for the best possible signal transfer [*]Premium Performance-crossovers with new and unique FleXX Mount system for limitless mounting possibilities [*]Three-level tweeter attenuator with rotary switch (0, 1, 3, 5 dB) [*]Bi-wiring and bi-amping capable [*]Crossover filter (2900 Hz, 6/12 dB/octave) [*]4 ohms impedance [*]1" Voice coil [*]Top-mount depth: 2-1/2"
  10. Hey guys! Haven't posted on here in a pretty long time. Still have all my equipment but my mb quart 6.5s mids blew so I figure guess its time to get some new ones. I have the components hooked up to a pretty ok orion 2 channel amp. Here are the two I'm curious about.... http://www.audiosavings.com/products/Car-Audio-And-Video/NEW-RE-AUDIO-RE6.5C-6.5-COMPONENT-CAR-SPEAKERS-6-1-2/RE6.5C.aspx And these http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/store/products/Incriminator-Audio-I-Series-6.5%22-Components.html Lemme know if you need more info! Tell me what you think of these two. Just want some decent speakers back in the truck. Thanks guys!

    lol. i guess i worded that wrong.. but yes. we shall see what M5 has to say

    looking for new 6.5 drivers

    Answer the question I asked above and you will have the answer to the question you just asked me. Here it is again... Well the info i plan to glean is where my h/u, and amps have distortion. Then setup my system below that point. As for now all the music i use is clean signals. And if i get music that is dirty i dont play it in my ride. Now stop avoiding my question and let me ask you where your opinion comes from? Stop avoiding and just answer the question.. i can see where you are coming from M5. yet.. outta curiosity. i have the same question as RX. and cablguy184... im going to try the cadence CWM6 components. seem pretty good for what im looking for and with that price im not expecting the best.. so i shall see how they work for me! thanks for staying on the topic. lol ...(kinda sad this simple recommendation of a little 6.5 component set up went to a dispute with a dd1...)

    looking for new 6.5 drivers

    they are 60 bucks shipped. im thinking price has to deal with the material used and construction of the overall kit though.. hmm with them being 60 bucks i kind of want to try them out. a lot of people bring them up in which components to get and then some say they are pretty rough speakers, but im sure with them being properly installed and what not im sure they could shine. i have a friend who just bought that smd distortion detector aswell so that should help too so i dont over power them. seems im answering my own questions here.. lol
