how do you guys think of theses?::

a/d/s/ 346cs 6.5 inch component system

i have been think of putting together the system and i am new to this.

head unit- Eclipse CD8454

component front: MB Quart PCE-216?? or a/d/s 346cs 6.5

component rear: MB Quart PCE-213?? or a/d/s 345CS 5.25

Sub woofer: 1 X 12" MB Quart PWE 302/304?? or a/d/s 312 RS4 12" or JL??

AMP: i have no clue!! any good suggestions is welcome

Fyi: i listen mostly high and mid, no too much bass!

mostly is vocal cd and musicals. some rock and very little pop. that is 1 of the reasons i choose my stero's products.

please HELP me with the selections.

Thank you,

well looks like youve done quite a bit of research. I think Elduderino knows more about a/d/s products more than anyone here, so he can help you out there. If you want pure sound quality setup, you may be able to get away with gettin rid of the rear speakers all together. I think you have a good idea of how you want your music reproduced.

one thing, is that i would lose the MB Quart sub from your list. Also, what is your budget?

guavawang

well i already have the head unit!!

so i guess within the 1000 i guess.

and that is just mainly: installation, mis wires and cables, mounting kits, and i found pretty good deals for the models on the mb quart.

the pricing are:

PCE-216 $270 x 1 pair
PCE-213 $250 x 1 pair

what do think about the price??

have you heard the MB Quarts? There are a few other good speakrs out there as well for the price, also i heard that MB Q's are now made in China, so the quality may not be the same as tehy once where

guavawang

i did not know that!! Dame China

well the Q is a little more than my budgets

so the part number was the premiums

As for your amp question. Eclipse has a whole line that would fit your plan.
Also check out JLAudio and Memphis.

SUbs. If bass is not you main concern why not do a single 10".
12" is alot of boom and will require mor space.

OK, I have to tell you that I like the a/d/s/ speaks a lot - but I don't think the 346 woofer will go in a TL without a bigger hole in the metal behind it. The 345 will fit.

You should also consider the 245 with the tweet mounted in a coaxial arrangement - since the TL has no tweeter locations. Same tweeter. Since you have a sub, don't worry about the size diff - a 5" often plays better mids than a 6".

Drop the MBQ and the a/d/s/ subs. JL works, as do some others (DLS, etc.). If you are worried about too much bass, get a 10" instead (consider a fiberglass box like the one in our TSX, https://acurazine.com/forums/audio-video-electronics-navigation-22/fiberglass-boxes-tsx-trunk-309884/ - we have access to a TL for making one that fits, by the way : )

Budget is the big question here though... and are you installing it or having it done?

guavawang

i will have it done by a audio store.

many people sugguested me to go with the JL subs.

in your opinion, if you go with the setup what type of Amps will be using?
i have a lot of different opinion on the Amps.

how many channel, how many Amps, how many watts, to support all of the 5 speakers??

thanks again!

guavawang

what type of JL AMps will u use to support the 5 speakers?

and i think you are right about the 10" sub.

thanks

elduderino

Budget?

guavawang

i already got the HU

so 1200 is pretty much the budget for the speakers and amps.

i hope that is enough!!
