Hi, i got a lot of valuable help from the ppl on this board when i had a query bout my engine so i'm hoping i can generate the same response here.
I have a 1988 civic hatchback std .. i want to get a system in it .. but i don't want to get something like you see all the kids with .. nothing but bass pumping through.. i want something that will provide me with a clear crisp quality sound .. with the occasional bass if and when i need it . i don't know a lot about car audio in terms of what speakers or size or what box.
from whatever i've been told .. the sound quality matters more depending on the way you install the system as well as the type of box you have.. if i'm wrong please correct me. So i need someone's help in telling me exactly what to get .. in terms of ..
Deck - .. what shoudl i look for in it .
Speakers in the Door - ( since my car didn't come with any )
Sub -
Amp -

obviously i'm not lookin to shell out wads of cash for this... and ANY help at all would be greatly appreciated.

thnx

-Philly

 

i can tell you subs and amp thats easy

for cheap bass but clean
id go for 2 JL 10W0s and an MTX amp around 400watts

pretty much anything with Preouts and your ok Kenwood is good

speakers go for clarion
6.5 2ways and 6x9 2ways running off the deck

the box for those subs doesn't have to be big at all
they hardly need any air

thats pretty much the set up i had in my Firefly and it sounded nice but add another 10 in there

probably cost around a grande give or take a few bucks
