Help me choose new speakers
I have the hifi radio. I have ct audio 6.5 in the front, an upgrade subs under the seats powered by jl 600. In the trunk skar amp amp and sub. The sound is not great. I feel like most never cars, no matter the brand sounds better than my audio.

You didn't say how many channels the Jl has?
Don't know what the other stuff is never heard of it. Model numbers and specs please. What did you start out with? Which OEM system? because the Hi Fi underseats are 8 inch stock and I don't see how you could fit 6.5 inch in the doors . ct audio 6.5 in the underseats? Yeah there seem to be some conflicting statements here , or ones that need to be explained. "The sound is not great. I feel like most never cars, no matter the brand sounds better than my audio." This statement needs detailed explanation. Last edited by ctuna; 01-30-2022 at 04:13 PM.. |

How did you get 6.5's in the doors ?
And that should sound pretty good if you pulled it off. O I see those Ct's are only a hundred bucks for a component set. You must have made a bigger hole to get them to fit. I am pretty happy with my Morel Dotechs 4 inch component set and Jehnerts xe 200's under seats driven by a JL 600/6 It's pretty much the best car system I have ever had in terms of Sound Quality. But near 500 for the Doors and 500 for the floors when I bought them almost 10 years ago. For mid range price doors a lot of people go with Audiotec Fisther or MBQuart. https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=343673 Last edited by ctuna; 01-30-2022 at 07:38 PM.. |

Thought about a DSP? Major improvement on my end and still improving on it.

You may consider switching out either the head unit or the amp for something with DSP and have a professional tune it for you. As with most quality installs, it's 1/3 gear, 1/3 install, and 1/3 tuning.

How big of an upgrade is the Logitech amp over the hi-gi amplifier? I’m thinking of getting bavsound speakers and a used Logitech amp

Logitech does not make and amp it makes mice and track balls .
The harmon kardon amp and what they call the L7 system by Harmon Kardon it a better but not nearly as good as Aftermarket Stuff. Best to do the DSP tune yourself because they way it's tuned will be dependent on which speaker's you get and your tastes. If you are not going to DIY you might as well by a package and go to a shop. |
