New system for new car....Need help please.
Sunday, April 06, 2008 6:20 AM
Hi guys,

I bought a new car for my girlfriend and the stock system sucks a lot. (Toyota Yaris) I'm looking to upgrade her system without adding any subs or sub box in the back because she needs all of the space. I have a 1000$ budget for her stuff too.

This is what I've been looking into buying:


Panasonic CGC7205 head unit with OEL screen (50w x4)

Alpine MRP-F300 amplifier (55rms x 4) @ 4 ohm "please correct me if I'm wrong"

2 sets of JBL GTO607C 6.5" component system (power handling 70 rms from the internet site)


I am curious of how this set up may sound. Any input appreciated!!! If other suggestions feel free, nothing is bought yet and respect the 1000$ budget for the H/U ,Amp, speakers. I know it's not much compared to what I have in the Cav but I just wan't the g/f to have a nice sounding system, she's not into subs anyway. I have an extra set for all the wiring and dynamat left.

Thanks!

Wow thanks a lot guys!! I really can do better that what I was looking!!!

Saw the specs for the Kicker amp ZX650.4.....Seems a bit overboard to run speakers on it. (170 w x4)

All other suggestions look good! Thanks again.

The Kicker ZX650.4 will be a perfect match for the pioneer PRS comps. The PRS comps are very underrated, and they will have no problem handing the 120rms per side. I actualy have ran a set active with 225rms + per side and still going strong. They are absolutly awsome for the money, and im recommending them when i even HATE pioneer. Trust me, this will blow away what you listed. I suggest you throw a good amount of deadner in the doors tho. Anyways best of luck.
