Reason why everyone is gone is because there are too few people who are willing to talk about good system setups.


Anyways... yeah if money was no object i'd get a better car first off(larger car), that would eliminate 99% of rattles since everything is still rather tight and well placed. I would go with something delicate and somewhat simple, just focus on the least amount of fluff while maintaining some beefiness. For example I'd probably get these components.

Create a nice, very compact in car PC, with touchscreen. Spend a great deal on either getting a sound board (soundcard) with RCA outputs or very high quality stereo to rca jacks. a nice 7 or 8" touchpanel, probably just a simple lilliput, integrate into dash. The PC would probably be stowed away in a safe place away from all the magnetic crap the subwoofers would be emitting.

Speakers would probably be top end rainbows/focals/or i'd probably try those 750 dollar polk components, all the way around, maybe 8 total, two in the front, two front door panels, two rear door panels, two rear deck.

Shit i'd probably buy them all just to see which are better, might even just get Diamond D6 components, just try all their qualities out.... Kinda hard to tell...

As far as subwoofers, I'd get a JL W7 for my deep deep lows and frequencies from 20hz to 80hz, then from 85 to 120 I'll put 6W0's under the foot wells (i'd have to find some way to stuff them in there... and put them under my rear seats. the component woofers would be tuned to 130hz to 1khz, everything above that would be taken care of by the tweeters...

And for amps i really wouldn't know what to have in the car... I'm not 100% sure what amps are higher power and still maintain a really low THD. I'd probably get a decent JL 1000/1 for the W7 in the back... I might end up getting 2 W7's... but i think if i make a really good box for one i should be fairly set. The amp for the 4 other 6W0's would probably be a 300/4. and of course two 300/4's for the speakers for three in total. Some sort of crossover might be employed but i'm completely inexperienced with that and wouldn't know if it'd cause more problems than its worth.

I think that about covers it. As far as power i'd get Kinetik batterie(s) and of course some sort of upgraded alternators, two if possible. All 0/2 power wire all around. (i'd spend an assload of time trying different setups to reduce alt whine/noise wherever possible while trying to maintain a good power to demand ratio).

Did i miss anything?
