RageQuitForLife Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 I have a 2002 isuzu rodeo and all of the door speakers are stock right now. I was thinking about getting NVX components for the front and rear doors, my only problem is that they would only be running on the aftermarket headunit and not a separate amp. The problem I have right now is when i turn my headunit up past 17 the speakers start distorting, would the aftermarket speakers let me turn in up higher or would i still get distortion at 17? Sorry if this is confusing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooTxBeeR Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 No the volume output stays constant to the power used. The power is coming form the HU so it won't change, or if it does, probably won't be to much. You will notice the biggest difference in getting a amplifier for the doors. It just gives you so much more control over it. Edit: before someone says I am tarded. Some speakers can sound louder than others on the same power, but you won't see a huge increase in output and clarity in just changing just the speakers, as you would adding in a amplifier. You will notice the best results from adding in both components and a amp to power them.

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 What headunit? Aftermarket speakers would make a difference assuming the headunit and the settings you have on it are not the issue. That being said I would get an amp even if it's a small one because it will sound much better than headunit power. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Not really true, most stock speakers are shit with high dcr and crap quality and even the cheap aftermarket speakers usually add a lot even on headunit power. I do agree about an amp making a bigger difference but not on 13 year old stock speakers.

RooTxBeeR Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Just depends on what is stock, some people can't discern the difference between the shitty, really shitty stocks, and the ones that come with a upgraded package. Those tend to be decent from what I have seen at least.

I would count my speakers as uber shitty stock speakers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Kenwoods are usually alright. Due to age of swap them anyways. How do you have your settings?(such as bass,treble,eq settings, bass boost, loudness) That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

RooTxBeeR Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Then yeah, you might want to look into replacing the doors and possibly putting a amp on them.

How do you have your settings?(such as bass,treble,eq settings, bass boost, loudness) first, my amp didnt come with a bass knob so i have to use the setting on the headunit sub lvl:15 bass:0 mid:0 treble:0 bass boost:0 loudness:1 I've messed with the settings a bunch but I cant really do anything with them because my speakers will keep disorting no matter what i do on the settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
