sounds in my nova

[novamark]

can anyone help me? i am a complete retard when it comes to sounds systems, i havent got a clue. i have got 2 1200w 12" infinity subs in the boot, i also want to run 2 good quality 6x9s, 2 good door speakers and tweeters. Questions:

1. reccommended manufacturers for 6x9s, door speakers and tweeters?

2. what amp will i need? wattage? good makes?

3. do i need to sound deaden the car?

4. can u recommend a good head unit? i heard alpine are best.

5. wires? a capacitator?

6x9s -dont bother, focal are good front speakers although abit expensive.

match up the rms of your amps to the rms of each amp port to give a fair view on the power of amp needed. Rockford fosgate are a good make of amp.

its helps a great deal, bass sounds better and less rattles( a nova really does rattle alot)


alpine are indeed a great make of HU

just get as thick as you can reasonably get, dont bother with the "amp wiring kit" sets of RCA wires as they are pathetic. Capacitator would be something you add later, after your 2nd amp probably.

whats rms?

forget what it stands for but its basically the real wattage of your stuff. Max power watts means absolutly jack shit. you should match your RMS of the speakers to the RMS of the amp. If it doesnt have an RMS rating, its generally not worth buying.
