    Audio System Project

    Here is my proposed audio system project:

    Headunit
    Alpine INA-W910(Still not sure about this, would be nice to keep a clean stock look)

    Front/Rear speakers
    JBL 660gti X 2

    Subwoofer
    JL Audio 6w3v3-4
    Polk Audio MM840DVC (If I can make this fit with stock enclosure)

    AMPs
    JL Audio HD 600/4 (For components)
    JL Audio Slash V2 250/1v2 (For sub)

    Sound deadening
    RaamAudio BXT II mat whole car 2 layers
    RaamAudio Ensolite 1 layer

    Loudness is definitely not my main concern. My top priority is sound quality followed by a clean install.

    I still dont know the exact speaker sizes for this car. If anyone can share this information I would really appreciate it.

    So what do you guys think?

    Thanks in advance for your inputs.

    OH I guess I forgot to add a cap. Would anyone suggest a nice cap? Thanks again.

    Capacitors usually don't serve any purpose other than help with the noticeable light dimming.

    So does anyone know if an 8" sub would fit in our stock enclosure with little modification?

    Have anyone tried the Infinity Kappa 32.9 speakers? They are the right size for our dash speaker right? Thank you.

    Quick question, does modifying the audio system affect the car's warranty in anyway? Thank you.

    I'm leaning toward a sub enclosure under one of the front seats and a class D amp in the other seat. I have a non-premium audio CT200h, so I would need a grill if I want to put it where the OEM sub would be in the premium audio setup I believe. Does anyone have any pictures of the premium audio sub area taken apart with the grille?

    rictdriver - Wow, is there even room for a sub itself under the seat, let alone an enclosure?

    After some research, here is what I found:

    1 X center dash speaker 3.5"
    2 X side dash speakers 3.5"
    2 X front door tweeters 1"
    2 X front door speakers 6.5"
    2 X rear door speakers 6.5"
    1 X Subwoofer 6.5"

    Total 10 speakers for Premium sound

    Can anyone confirm this is the correct setup? Thank you.

    Another question, I have decided to keep the stock headunit for awhile until I get tired of its looks. Well I was wondering if the stock headunit could run aftermarket dash speakers rating at 35rms smoothly without an amp? Thanks again.
