i am about to install 2 sony 12 inch subs and an amp (not sure which one at the moment) but will it be neccessary to replace my stock speakers??
speakers needed? - 6G Celicas Forums
ok, first off did you buy the sony stuff already, cause if ya didnt, dont.... Also, if your speakers are still good, theres no real need to reaplace.. I mean sooner or later it would be a good idea, just cause it would sound a lot better.. but theres no need if ya dont have the extra cash burning in your pocket.

well, it depends. DO you have a factory or after market head unit?? Cause that could make a big dif. One thing i would say, is turn the base down on the speakers when you get the subs in, that will alow the speakers to play harder an louder without bottoming out..

alarms are always needed.. but for sony.. they might not bother.

2 12's... just a pyramid amp but this is a very budget system and you would be surprised how nice it sounds, already got pulled over for it, and its easy to set off car alarms >

I have a Sony CDX-CA900X, 2 remotes, CD Text,plays Mp3's,CD-R/RW's,XM Radio..and it's a 52Wx4...with a Sony 600w 10" Sub..Alpine amp, Boston Acoustic 6.5 Pro Series Cross overs, Rockford Wiring,Infiniti ghost cone mids, Boston Acoustic 6x9's in the rear and Boston Acoustic Super Tweeters in the front... I built on Quality.. and no.. I don't think Sony sucks..btw..I use a lot of Sony products and am actually a Sony reseller,licensed and everything. I have blown JL's and JBL's...so.. My Xplod sub has never given me trouble...Sony haters...kiss my b-ASS. ;-)

First off, the scratching you heard is your HU clipping...very bad, turn it down. Try turn down the bass going to the speakers in your car...that may help the clipping.
Sony HU's are "OK" but everything else they make SUCKS. If you think anything sony sounds good, you haven't heard a REAL system. Yes it is budget, but I bet you I could get a better sounding system for the same or cheaper price than what you paid.
But since you already have the subs.....give each sub 300w that should last a month or so >

Woohoo you can set off car alarms and get pulled over.....I could do that with my old 10" >>

There SVC 4ohm, so wire them in parallel to achieve a 2ohm load and get 1 600w amp. Mono.....like a JBL 600.1
u mean like something like this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ssPageName=WDVW
That amp is PERFECT for your subs.....
