Mobile sound people...

[Matt Attallah]

Ok - I need all your help. I have never had to select any type of speaker system for my vehicle (I have bought the 20/pair el-cheapo speakers to replace my old ones [blown out]) and am totally sick of the low quality sound that I have. Below I have listed what I want (with their RMS power - not their 'peak' power) and want to know how am I doing sofar? Also everything is at 4 ohms. I want it to hit - but not to where I'll kill the guy next to me...

Head Unit - Sony CDX-F7700 unit player:
» CD changer controls » 4-volt front, rear and subwoofer preamp outputs » high-pass and low-pass filter » rear auxiliary input (when not using a CD changer or XM tuner) » clock » wireless remote » 23.2 watts RMS/52 peak x 4 channels » CD frequency response 10-20,000 Hz » CD signal-to-noise ratio 120 dB » FM sensitivity 9 dBf » warranty: 1 year

Both Pair of speakers: (front and rear pair with tweeters)

» 6-3/4" polypropylene woofer with rubber surround » 3/4" titanium dome tweeter with composite surround » surface-, flush-, or coaxial-mounting options » composite ABS/fiberglass basket » outboard 2-way crossover (4,200 Hz at 12 db per octave) with selectable tweeter output » grilles included » frequency response 38-32,000 Hz » power range 60-130 watts RMS » sensitivity 86 dB » top-mount depth 2-9/16'




and now my amp to power all 4 speakers (I want FULL power to all my tones - not just a sub...)

Infinity Reference 7540a



» 111 watts RMS x 4 at 4 ohms (CEA-2006 Compliant) » 139 watts RMS x 4 at 2 ohms » 278 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms in bridged mode » 2-, 3-, or 4-channel output » 4-ohm stable in bridged mode » variable high-/low-pass filters (32-320 Hz, 12 dB/octave) » variable Bass EQ (0-12 dB @ 50 Hz) » requires 8-gauge power and ground leads — hardware and wiring not included with amplifier » preamp outputs » preamp- and speaker-level inputs





I when I sell this vehicle (in a few years) I'm going to keep this system - and upgrade/add on where I see fit. Money isn't that HUGE of a deal - but if I can save some here and there I'll take it.

What do you say? Does sound like a kick-butt system? Too much? I LOVE music - and want to listen to it as hard as possible! I like bass - but I like to hear all the other frequencys with it!

ALL types of input is appreciated...
