Setup ? 3x ZX500s or ZX500 + ZX450?
Setup ? 3x ZX500s or ZX500 + ZX450?
I am on the fence here people... Help push me one way or another
Here are the two options:
1. Three ZX500s. One for the front stage 150x2. One for the rear stage 150x2. And one for the subwoofer 600x1.
2. ZX450 split for the front and rear stages 75x4. And one ZX500 for the subwoofer 600x1.
The components are RSd65cs, which should be able to handle the power either way.
The power supply is great, so no worries on power starvation.
Thanks!!!

How about 2 ZX450s and 1 ZX500. Run one ZX450 bridged for the front right and rear right, the other ZX450 bridged for the front left and rear left, and then the ZX500 on the subs.
I HIGHLY suggest you don't run any rear speakers at all. If you have enough power to the front, and good speaker placement, adding rears just makes the system sound worse.
For car audio the less cones the better. Less cancellation, less distraction, less needed power, and the best is less cost.
Besides, you can always add rear speakers later if your setup requires them. Then you can use deck power or a small amp or what ever you want.

No longer really "in tune" with the audio industry, and probably have not been for some time.
Hands down the forum's most ignorant member...
Don't even know what Ohm's law is...

Phuck it here it is:
... Since one of the ZX500s is dead I had to pull the MMATS D300HC into action... The MMATS is brutal, pulls a serious 50A though!!!

Not a very exciting video though.
Thanks!!!

Eric, normally I never run rear speakers at all... But in the Suburban I figured components in the rear doors would help the backseat passengers enjoy the tunes.
... Then again I could say the hell with 'em!

I did not think of that one. You are right, in a suburban you probably need rear speakers!
