Build Your Own System

DESIGN IT YOURSELF

I'm about to replace my factory system and what some ideas. So I want to know what you have in your car now or what you would want. PLease include Manufacture and Model. If you have the price of the item that would be nice. I want to replace the factory speakers and add possibly a DVD player or Multimedia control from Alpine, and of course SUBS. Let me know what you think it a nice one.

Stock sub replacement:

Kicker RMB8

Door speaker replacements:

Polk DX-6

These are about as direct a replacement for factory that you could ask for!

alternate speakers

you might want to check out some of the Boston Acoustics' stuff...

They make a few different 6" coaxials, some with 3/4" tweets, some with 1"s.

Their RM6 speakers have a 1" tweeter, 95dB efficiency and sound pretty damn good.

also see their FX and RX series

I have 2 Kicker RMB8 midbasses that I am going to put in the doors. However, the Kicker RMB8 is a midbass speaker, not a true sub. It can still be used as a sub but it won't go as deep as a true sub.
