Well recently the speakers on my right side blew. I was thinking of taking the back left speaker bringing it to the front. Running those off the HU. Then taking a set of Kicker DS650s off a small 2channel amp. Sound good to anyone. Or should I just do all the speaker with a four channel amp. I do have the money but it will cut into my sub and amp fund for a little while. Opinions please?

Re: back speakers
You could move the back speakers to the front on both sides and get a smaller 2 channel amp to power two elemental designs 7kv.2s. That way you won't need subs (well it depends what you want them for, the 7kv.2s will round out the bottom end nicely, but not for being heard from outside the car) and you will kill two birds with one stone.Comment

Re: back speakers
Im going for ground shaking bass, in a way. Im currently building a box for
(2) 12" RE SE12D4's, Hifonics amp. So I just want to go for something that will provide good sound quality for the music.Comment

Re: back speakers
The 7kv.2s will get you great midbass and mids. Elemental designs has great sound quality. I personally wouldn't put kickers speakers in the great sound quality boat, while they are a great brand, I'd say they're more geared for loud than EQ. The DS650s will work fine for you though if your music is going to be overtaken by subs anyway.Comment

Re: back speakers
The 650s are in mind because I saw a good deal for the 650s tweeters and crossovers at a local audio shop. If I had it my way some rainbow, or some RE XXX comps would be great. But a good deal is a good deal.Comment

Re: back speakers
I'd look into a set of Infinity Kappa 653.7i for the back. I've been told they sound really nice in our cars and fill nicely for a decent price. They're $89 on crutchfield right now. Also, they're only 2-Ohm load, so you won't need an amp to get that extra loud-ness from them :)~97 3.8L V6 Camaro~

Re: back speakers
Sounds like another deal. I have heard that Kappas are very good quality. I'll check them out.Originally posted by RadRacer View PostComment

Re: back speakers
If you get them, let me know. I've been tossing the idea around for a set in the rear too~97 3.8L V6 Camaro~

Re: back speakers
I actually have decided to do all four speakers recently. Because it is now the only decision. Every speaker has blown completely. I am going to buy
(2) sets of RE audio Comps, tweeters, and crossover. A 400.4amp, or 200.4 based on the set of comps I get which is TBD at the moment. Any recommendations on a amp in either direction.Comment

Re: back speakers
More power is always better. 6 months from now, you think you'll miss that extra hundred bucks? Hell no.
Don't think I'd roll with two full sets of components either. There is no need for them in the rear.Comment

Re: back speakers
Read the above message. I wasn't going with two sets until yesterday when the choice was no longer available. The left side is also total blown. Leaving me music less for about 2wks when the components are shipped.Originally posted by 96firebird311 View PostComment

Re: back speakers
Uh.... ok. I read what you posted. I couldn't care less WHEN you decided to replace all 4 speakers. I just commented that I wouldn't run a full component set in the rear. Tweeters behind the listener is a no no.Originally posted by yenko21 View PostComment
