OK...I have a Alpine head unit (recent upgrade) dont remember model #off hand will get that later. But anyways...
My sterio still sounds like crap (mach 460) + I have some speaker ground issues...So I have decided to upgrade speakers.
After doing research I find out how crappy the MACH 460 stuff is and how its horribly designed in many respects (including upgrading and the fact that the rear speakers are not even stereo ).
Now I want to get some component speakers front and rear, wire them to my alpine head unit and dump the factory amps. Which from what I have found is the ideal way to do it. What do you guys think?
My car is a open tracker and weight is important to me and so I dont want subs etc. I just want good nice woofers and tweeters.
Not wanting subs and extra crap is it ok for me to use my Alpine head unit amp for the speaker setup and just dump the factory amps from the car or would that amp be to weak to produce relatively loud sound?
I was looking at Infinity Kappa component 6x8 speakers and tweeters, would this be a good choice? Any other better/nicer options?
Also how is everything wired? I really need some help with that. This will be my first sxperience with car stereo and it seems the mach 460 makes things really difficult and complicated for me. Any help with any of this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guyz.
