Hi All,
Im new to the forum here and I just bought a 2009 Limited with more options than I thought I was looking for. My questions (for today at least) center around the so called audiophile stereo. So I know I got the audiophile stereo as part of the moon and tune package and im curious as to what all that entails? How many speakers, speaker sizes, is there an amp, speaker resistance, is there a sub (if so where)...anything you can tell me?
My goal here is to replace some of the components with aftermarket, as well as do some sound deadening. I turned in my 94 explorer on the cash for clunkers deal and prior to doing so took the entire system out of it. That left me with 4 Boston acoustic 3 way 5X7's a Soundstream little wonder amp, 2 Soundstream spl 10's and a Rockford Fosgate punch 250a2. Id like to re-use the speakers, I actually have 2 more also for a total of 6, and one of the subs (where is a good spot to hide this and maximize my cargo space?). The other sub and the RF amp id like to put in my other car.
So:
-Will the 4 or 6 BA 5X7's fit?
-does the stock stereo have enough juice and correct resistance to power them? or should i maybe use the soundstream amp to power them and buy a new amp for the sub?
-what Line level converter do you recommend?
-Please if you could, point me to some good threads for taking paneling apart, and wiring, or any general install tips
Any other info you have would be super appreciated, Im sure your responses will spark new questions so thank you for your help in advance!!
Thanks allot,
Eric
