Component Speakers
I have a 2005 Scion XB with one 12" Rockford Fosgate P2 in the back. I
have a P3002 running it but I need to know what I need for speakers. I like the diamond audio d6 6 1/2 and 5 1/4. I don't know what amp to run. Do I need a 2,4,5, or 6 channel amp? Thanks Taylor |

wrote: are you going to be replacing just the front speakers or all four? that would be a deciding factor. Simply put, you need one channel per speaker. (four speakers would need a 4 channel amp, and two would need a 2 channel.) If you are going to get diamond d6's keep in mind you should be looking for an amp with 75 to 100 watts per channel. It has 6 speakers in it but I will be replacing the 2 6 1/2, the 2 5/14 and the 2 tweets in it plus adding an extra set of tweets because the componets come with it. Is there such a thing as an 8 channel? |

Is there such a thing as an 8 channel? when you are dealing with component speakers, each woofer is connected to the tweeter through a crossover, and then to the amp. you have 8 drivers, but they are paired up so you only need four channels. is your Xb an auto or a 5speed? |

It is a 5 speed. Thanks for the input. Do you guys have any thoughts on the Pioneer Avic-z1? |

It is a 5 speed.
Thanks for the input. Do you guys have any thoughts on the Pioneer Avic-z1? my wife has an 06 Xb auto... the damn thing can't get out of it's own way. AVIC-Z1? You're going to double the value of your car by the time you're done! I can't say anything bad about that deck. Pioneer is one of my favorite deck manufacturers. However, I would wait a little bit to buy one, as they will be releasing a revised version of the software that is a little more user friendly. (damn Microsoft...) |

Yea I agree.
