Dbattise Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 I got a 09 dodge ram and I'm looking to upgrade the speakers to some components. Looking to spend around 200 per set. I was looking at getting either the rockford fosgate t1 or t2s. I won't be putting them on a amp for awhile. Any suggestions?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterJohnson Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 If I were you and I had a $400 budget on component speakers I'd get this http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12224_Pioneer-TS-D1720C.html And definitely an amp I would prefer an amp per set so ur running 180rms at 4 ohms http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_37751_Pioneer-GM-6500F.html Since ur budget won't allow getting two amps you could go on Craig'slist and find an old alpine amplifier, such as v12 expert amps Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stroupe79 Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 I would look at these Focals with your budget, and leaves you a bit of cash for a 4channel http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_7755_Focal-165-A1.html and a 4channel to power them http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_24110_MB-Quart-ONX4.80.html total for 2 comp sets and 4channel would be $409....https://www.sonicelectronix.com/cart.php http://www.stevemead...cherokee-build/ 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Alpine CDE-hd148bt Alpine PKG-RSE2 PRV Audio (4) 6MB200 front/rear doors PRV Audio (4) TW350Ti dash/rear doors Kicker KX350.4 Obsidian Audio (1) 18 D4 v2 revamp (2) Stereo Integrity HT 18d2DC Audio 1.2k5.25ft^3 tuned @34hz revamp Infinite Baffle Cpillar AudioTechnix 60mil deadenerKnuKonceptz & SkyHigh wire (complete setup) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullz Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 If your going to spend $400 on 2 sets i would add a little more and do one really good set and get an equally good amplifier to power them with and you won't have to upgrade to anything better for years to come. Hertz HSK, Audison AV K6 are just two of the endless options to choose from out there that would fit in your budget and sound awesome. I am biased towards the elettromedia brand of components. http://elettromedia-usa.com/ 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n8ball2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 you will probably be more than disappointed wtih anything if you dont amp it to be honest. Id do one really good set up front and if you are worried about rear fill for passengers do a coaxial set. rear fill is booo.

Dbattise Posted March 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Eventually I'd put a amp on it just now right away. I blew the 6 by 9s that was in there so I need something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcbrassard Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Get a really good set of components for front stage so you never have to upgrade. (I like your RF choice, but there are other great brands out there) Plan your system out & figure out after thurough research what your wanting. Try to never go cheap on your equipment cause you'll just end up upgrading in the near future. Remember it all starts with a good signal from the HU. Good amps and then good speakers for a great sounding system. Nothing wrong with buying stuff slowly, we all have to do that at some point. Just a get a good plan together for what you want and head that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
