Hello all,
New here, but old with Car Audio.. :) Anyways, I USED to be in the local SPL league & comps about 12 years back and I loved it, been awhile since then and I recently purchased a new car (09 Toyota Camry SE) So now I am fairly set on Polk and leaning hard towards SQ and possible SQ comps..
So my Questions
I am looking at 2 configs
mm6501, mm691, (2)mm124svc, 500.4 & 1200.1 (2 ohm)
or
SR6500, (2) SR124dvc, 500.4 & 1200.1 (1 Ohm)
Never really thought about not using back speakers and not very often are there people in the back seat, nor do I listen to DVDs or Surround sound. mostly CDs & iPod
I would be thinking I would like to Bi-Amp the 6500s for better SQ as well as locating the tweets in the pillar or dash top (Pillar is better?) Odd ball thing is I am trying to keep the car *Looking* as stock as possible. i am building the encloures and the amp rack, etc, so not an issue.
The car will be Dynamatted (doors in & out, trunk, rear deck, possible roof/partial floor), dynalined (front doors & rear deck) and dynaplated (Holes in front door and rear deck) ... Yes, I am a fan of the Dyna products..
So any suggestions to my install/config would be greatly appreciated.
I have been pouring over the tuning docs I have found here and they have a lot of useful info, but I am sure once I get this setup, I will have alot of questions as SPL is ALOT less technical than SQ..
Also, Do I go with the speaker adapters that come with the 6500's? (6x9 opening in door of Camry) or do I make a custom MDF spk adapeter?
Thanks
