JBL Setup

Has anyone upgraded their audio setup that has the JBL system in it? I would like to improve speakers and head unit but I see it is 2ohm.... just looking for ideas on what you have done.

 

Just get an amp rated for 2 ohms

 

I ripped out everything .... Sony head unit.. kenwood eq... Amps running a boston acoustics class a amp and a alpine class d for my subs. Doors running Boston acoustics 6.5 and 6.0 in the rear. Sub using a qlogic sub box and 2 alpine 8 inch subs.

 

What did that cost? I want a better HU first, then better speakers in a year or two. I would like to keep all factory controls too.

 

Alot of head units you can use the factory controls using a steering wheel adapter ( all it is a box and a harness) make sure your head unit your looking at can accept that ( alot dont so keep that in mind)

for mine
head unit 250
eq 180
BA class a amp was 450
alpine amp 300
front speakers 300
rears where 120
qlogic box 215
2 alpine subs got them for 200

add other 150 for misc stuff and thats my set up..

Clean crisp and very loud.. It will make your ears ring.. The two 8 inch subs help out on the bottom end but if your looking for lose as a hooker bass you need something alot bigger but i wanted the hidden look and clean look the best.

 

Simple I prefer. In my jeep xj I had nice 6.5, 2 ways and a 40×4 rms amp.... dynmat behind them and was happy...
