Re: PG in a Hybrid Camry?

Thanks for the replies. I think AB but they should suck a decent amount of current. I would most likely just use the 450 only with the front on a component set and rear on a small sub. I found this link which is giving me mixed answers. http://www.greenhybrid.com/discuss/f51/serious-stereo-system-ok...

PG in a Hybrid Camry?

Hey everyone,
I just uninstalled a system in my buddy's car and he purchased an 08 Camry Hybrid. I have never done an install in a Hybrid and was wondering if I can install a 2125 and zx450 in one? Electrical system differences? Etc?
Thanks in advance.

No prob. man. If you run the L4's on axis or close to it you don't need much in terms of a tweeter either as they go pretty high. This is nice because you can then use a really small format tweeter which gives you lots of flexibility with mounting .

Call Scott and see if he has a used set. He has a trade up program and since they just came out with the L6 SE's he should have some used L6 sets available that were traded in.

I gotta say my Hybrid L6's are awesome. I run them from 80@24 db/octave up to 4k on my MS2250 TA. I beat on them and they never miss a beat. Wonderful midbass and no discernible IM. I find myself hearing bass lines that I never heard before in a lot of classic rock. Great tonality and they blend rea...

THANK YOU THANK YOU. YOU ARE THE MAN. I am going to select the 2nd one (Panansonic 3300uf). Normally I would not worry about these but since they are bulged out and I know this amp has had a hard life, I am gonna replace them while recapping.

Thanks man. They are approx. 24 mm diameter(15/16") and have a height of about 27 mm (1 1/16"). They are 50 V, 2200 uf but of course I would like to add more if size permits. I could go 3/8" taller since I have the height available.

ZX450 rail cap part #

I searched and only see part numbers for the rail caps in the MS amps (which are too big) or the or the 16 v2200 uf caps (which are not the rail caps). Anyone have a replacement/upgrade digikey part number for the 50V 2200uf ones? The tops on mine are bulged out. Thanks.

I love, love, love my IDQ's . I have a 2250ta bridged to a pair and I hear EVERY note with a seamless transition to my Hybrid L6's. If you are looking for a sub biased towards sound quality, I highly recommend them.
