hi guys!

ive got a speaker set-up of :

Kenwood 6x9's 500watt 3ways
Kenwood 6's 280watt 3ways
Kenwood 6's 180watt 2ways
Kenwood Tweeter's 450watt


im just wondering WHAT is the BESTWAY to AMPLIFY these speakers to an amplifer?????
and WHAT is the BEST AMP to use?????

cheers, any suggestions would be good :D

Ha the best way ha. You won't like that answer.

Budget - please be realistic?

Please correct me if I am wrong, I guess you have the fully sic by nines in the rear shelf, 6inch 2 ways in the front doors and tweeters in the front on the A pillar ( or similar )?

i know how to amp car speakers, just dont know what the best amp to use is!

6x9s in custom parcel shelf
6's 280watts in front doors
6's 180watts in rear doors
Tweeters earheight on rear seats & on dash

my budget is around 250/300 for a desent amplifier!

p.s stop being a wanka

lol, creates an account, starts 2 threads the same, then starts calling people wankers for trying to gather relevant information to help you with your initial question, lets hear it for you!

btw potatos can power light bulbs yeah, so theory has it that you should be able to fill your boot with potatos, stick wires between then all, shove in your rcas and speaker outputs and you should be good for a few gigawatts. only downside i can see is the lifespan... but think of the gigawatts!!!

:bowdown::bowdown: Woob ha ha.

Well mate welcome to the forums. Respect gets you a long way.

To answer your initial question about which amp is BEST, I would suggest:
2x Audison Thesis HV Venti
1x Audison TH Quattro

Wire the 6x9's off the first Venti and the front set of 6inch and tweeters off the other Venti. THe Quattro could run the rest. :facejump:

If you manage to find a RRP on those amps you will understand why I asked the question about budget....

In your budget though, Jaycar 4 x100WRMS will work. Why you have so many random tweeters is a personal thing I guess...

Wire your extra tweeters in series with your 6inchers.
Front channels of the amp to run the fronts
Headunit to run the rears
Rear channels of the amp to run the 6x9's.

Even better - ditch the rear door 6inch and tweeters!!

And yes I can be a wanka - I would get used to it.

What is this gear going into ??

Its Kenwood Gear, I would go with a Kenwood Amp and just run the rears off the deck.

Just posting up what your going to run wont get you the answers you want unless you are a little more clear on what deck you have, What vehicle its going into or anything...

I mean hell ... If its going into a VW beetle then I would have to say upgrade the electrical system to 12volt first..

sorry guys haha you have a point there! and yeah i agree respect goes ALL the way lad!
Mr Charisma was being a smartass tho..........but hey didnt say there was anything wrong with that, arent we all at times lol

but no mate i really appreciate the tips dude! will keep an eye out, cheers :D

its all goin into a TS magna 2nd Gen mate

So Does your deck support sub out ? or is it going to be a case of running the Rear channel as your sub channel then running the fronts and rears off the one channel ?

The more details you can give us, the more we can help...
Are there current speakers in the 2nd Gen doors ? as I would probably recommend doing a bit of sound deadoning in the front doors and an MDF buildout to stop any fowling of the window mechanism

sorry guys haha you have a point there! and yeah i agree respect goes ALL the way lad!

Look mate I was only playing around because it is very common getting someone wanting to know everything and telling us nothing. Every now I then I have some fun.

To help you a little more, just need to know:

Would you like to run all your speakers off one amp?
Do you care about SQ at all or are happy just to have left / right, front to back separation?
As Magnat said, need to know the deck in questions :D
Does your budget include the wiring required?


The rest we have covered I think.
