New system in a Integra

[Integra4200]

I dont know much about audio systems im just looking for some thing that will bump loud. Im looking to spend around $2000 on the whole system. Can any one give me tips or ideas on what i would want? Its going in a 2dr acura integra LS.

infinity kappas in place of the stock speakers powered by an amp and 2 kicker solo barics L7 powered by a 1200 watt kicker amp. this will be powerful.

[60hz163.5db]

hhmm i have a 96 integra $2000 putting all of it in yourself. If you don't have a headunit start there pioneer alpine eclipse higher end clarion. Eclipse point source 6.5 in the front and eclipse 3-ways in the back. a small 150x2 amp on the fronts. JL 500/1 on two JL w312's your at about 2 stacks with all the wire and dblocks. This system would be loud and have plenty of punch... ..

yeah im looking for a head unit that plays cdr cd-rws mp3 wmas all of the cds that i burn. and i want to get 2 12's and im just not sure which brands are good or which exact models are good to buy. Can any one give me links to what products are a good choice to buy? i could use links for everything...headunit speakers subs and the amp. that would be great thanks

oh i forgot to ask is there any thing else i will need to get the system working. i heard some times when bumping loud it can make your headlights dim and things like this. how can i prevent this sort of thing?

[mjshort18]

go to ikesound.com they have everything you will need for really good prices. you could get a cap but that may not be neccisary for your lights, mine do not dim and i don't have anything to prevent it. you may be ok, just have to wait until you get your system set up. go for an alpine head unit, a great one is the cda-7995, go for the kicker 12 solo barics L7s they will pound so hard it hurts your head, and get a 1200.1 kicker amp. you may also be able to get some of this stuff on ebay cheaper, but just be careful of what you buy. ask many questions. hope this helps.

This is what I would get...

Head Unit: Alpine CDA-9813 http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/1301

Rear Speakers: Infinity Reference 6002si (run off head unit)http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/1338

Front Components: Infinity Kappa Perfect http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/470

Amp For Components: US Acoustics USX2100 http://www.thezeb.com/caraudio/us_acoustics.html

I would go with one sub (THIS WILL GET VERY LOUD!!!)...
Sub: Adire Audio Brahma 12" http://www.adireaudio.com/mobile_aud...hma_series.htm
(In a sealed 1.5 CF box, make sure at least 3/4 inch thick walls, this is large sub)

If you wanted the 2 12's (The Brahma would still be louder)...
Subs: Adire Audio Shivas http://www.adireaudio.com/mobile_aud...vers/shiva.htm
(Also in a sealed box with each sub getting about 1.5 CF)

Amp for Brahma (Wired at 1 Ohm getting 1250 watts RMS) / Shiva Pair (Wired to take a combined 4 Ohm load getting 700 watts RMS total for pair) : US Acoustics USX1000D http://www.thezeb.com/caraudio/us_acoustics.html

You may also want to include a Cap:
Rockford Fosgate Power 1.0 farad Digital Top Capacitor CPCD10-03:
http://www.thezeb.com/caraudio/rockfordfosgatecaps.html

Plus all the wire and install goodies.

This is the setup I would have If I were going to do everything all over again. You may even have some $$ left over. Good Luck!

thanks a lot for all the great links and ideas that setup sounds awesome comes to about $1991 so i will probably get that exact setup when i save up enough.thanks again.

[Integra4200]

if i saved up enough should i go with 2 of the
Sub Adire Audio Brahma 12"?

[thewoahna]

2! WOW! I dont know about that, I think that the one will be more than enough. They get really really loud (even more so in a hatch like a teg). My bro has a single Shiva in his teg gettin 240 RMS and it gets hellla loud, I cant even imagine what the single brahma would sound like. I would stay with the one.

[Integra4200]

hehe k just asking cus more is normaly better :-)

[unusualcivic]

if you got the balls to go with 2 brahmas, go for it...you could probably win a few SPL competitions with that setup
