Re: o2 tacoma needs help tweeking sounds

Do you know much about the clarion apx. Someone was saying the internals are very similar to the arc xxk's, and the specs I read are very similar.

Re: o2 tacoma needs help tweeking sounds

Just because the internals are similiar doesn't mean the amps are similiar. weaking just a few parts can TOTALLY change an amp...... with that said I do not have experience with either amp but talk to Gsteg and Sr20 they might have.

Re: o2 tacoma needs help tweeking sounds

The clarion apx series is no joke, if you get them for a good price...go for it! But there are also MANY other choices if need be!

Re: o2 tacoma needs help tweeking sounds

I'm almost sure I'll go for the cdt's 61, cadence amps, and atlas 12 sub for my wife's truck. What do you think.

Sounds like a bangin system. The sq will be absolutely amazing, and you'll get plenty of bump to satisfy you or her.

Well, the RE components will be a little better than the CL-61's. I used to own the cl-61's...and the RE's are slightly better. If you went with the EF61's and the 1" tweets, then those I'd take over the RE's. peace

Re: o2 tacoma needs help tweeking sounds

kdrm, hey, what head unit are you running? Also, what Kicker sub do you have, what style/size box is it in, and also how is the sub positioned in the truck?

Re: o2 tacoma needs help tweeking sounds

I'm running an alpine 9815. The sub is a kicker cvs 10 that's in a sealed prefab slant box. I don't know the volume. I have the sub facing toward the drivers seat. It sits in the back of the extended cab. I'm running it bridged off of the alpine v12 4x75 amp. I'm considering getting a 350-500W class D amp and getting an atlas twelve, and then running my comps on the alpine. I have 2 8" free air kickers that I could put in the rear panels for midbass. It would take some fabrication though and these would also have to be powered of the alpine. Do you think it would be worth the endever. I want it to sound super accurate. Right now I'm running my sub, comps and rear speakers off this amp.

Re: o2 tacoma needs help tweeking sounds

I ordered all the stuff for my wife's 4-runner. Thanks to all of you and your recommendations, she will officially have cdt cl61 comps powered by a cadence amp 120 RMS per channel. Atlas 12" sub powered by a separate cadence amp 350 rms. For my tacoma I went ahead and order the atlas 12 for that, and I'm going to brigde the 4 channels of the alpine to 2 channels to run the boston comps, and I'm cosidering getting rid of my rear speakers to get better staging and clarity. Also I'm going to purchase a separate amp for the sub. What do you think about the idea on the 8" free airs in the rear panels for midbass?

Sounds great man! You'll love the sound!

As far as the midbass, as long as they a crossed over correctly...you should be fine! peace
