What is a good component set ive heard focals were good but which ones. Im going to have the midrange in the stock speaker location and the twweters in custom pods where that triangle piece by the mirrors are. Should i put any speakers in the back seat spots and which ones midbass midrange coaxiles? Any help btw im puttin two e15a's in the back wellso so the front speakers need to be good enough to not get drowned out and have very good sq. Also when you reccomend speakers tell me how powerfull of an amp i need. Thanx

 

get the MB quart 6.5" component Q Series there 90w rms and like 170 peak

 

You are going to need a good component set and POWER to keep up with dual 15a's. How much money you looking to spend? I'd go with the Focal 165K2's and give them ATLEAST 100WRMS. Bump up to 125WRMS if you can. For the rear, go with a simple mid range or midbass. I recommend the Adire Audio Koda. ($160/pair) Thought about which amp you will be using? I'm gonna recommend the Autotek Stealth series. The XS1500 for the subs and the XS900 for your components. Note that xs1500 outputs max power at 1 ohm. Using the 15a, you'll want two sub amps! You'll probably be over 150db with a setup like that.

 

Im going to use the avionixx 1800.1 for the subs. Also im always confused by this for component speakers when the say the rms wattage is for each speaker or for the pair.

 

Each speaker.

 

whats the rms ratings for the kodas i cant find it anywhere

 

100WRMS for the component set or 75WRMS for just the midbass.

 

Whatever you do, don't put Focal's component set in your car if you plan on using the mirror location for the tweeter that you speak of.

The Focal component set was designed with having the midrange/midbass driver in the door and the tweeter up in the A Pillar.

I had some Focal 165K's in my doors and put the tweeters up in the doors up by the mirrors like you speak of. Man those TN45 tweeters were HARSH. I talked to the Marketing rep guy from Focal at the IASCA finals and he told me that their component sets are designed to be used like I stated above, speaker in the door and the tweeter up in the A Pilliar.

 

how did you mount yours in the a pillar isnt it at about the same spot or do u mean at the top of the a pillar.

 

How's this?

 

thats the pod that I was planning on getting will that sound good or not

 

The Focal's component set won't sound good there, at least they weren't designed to go there. They were designed to go on the A Pilliar up in the dash area pointing at the windshield and or at each other. If I can find a pic of what I'm talking about later I'll give you the link.

 

Kind of like in this pic exept those are the Focal TLR's and some of the people will put them more so on the side of the windshield and have them aimed differently:

do you have any better pictures that have them angled for the best sound. How did you find this out just by talking to focal?
