Alright so i just started my audio build and begun with Alpine's Iva-w505 head unit and now moving on to replacing the factory mids and highs. Wanting to do front and rear components but need suggestions as far as brands and models, with cost not being an issue..Thanks!

 

I have a pioneer head unit and all type R speakers. I also bought an enclosure from zenclosures to go under the sway bar and got an amp rack with it. I have the type r sub as well and two amps with a capacitor on the amp rack. It thumps really loud. my gf says she can hear me before i turn on her street. so that would be one way to go. let me know if you have questions. a great place to get the speakers and subs would be onlinecarstereo.com excellent place just make sure they have the item in stock otherwise your going to wait a long time to receive it

 

cost not an issue.... well then



2 sets of Rainbow CS 360.30 Reference ($9,899.99 each)

run on Mcintosh amps ..... just go nuts


my point.. dont say "with cost not being an issue" because your not bill gates so it is an issue at some point

with that being said. what are you trying to achieve? SQ, SPL, SQL, just expensive show car ****.... that will help with the advise i can give as well as a realistic budget.




On a positive note: im jealous of your w505... im looking to switch over to one soon

 

Can't go wrong with Focal, Diamond, JL Audio, or MB Quart.

 

SQL, I was thinking All Alpine Type-X
2 - SPX-17PRO Component Sets
2 - SWX-1043D 10" Subs
PDX-1.1000 Mono
PDX-4.150 4 Channel

 

the rear speakers are not necessary at all in a z

if you want sq you will probably want to go with a 3 way front stage and go active as far as crossovers go
