Sound system help
I'm slowly piecing together a sound system for my 02 v6. I was wanting to go all Alpine, or as much as possible. I already have an SWE-1041 10" Sub, a set of 6020HX 3/4" Tweets (they're old, but work great), and an MRP-F200 4/3/2 Channel amp.
Also planing on getting a CDA-9847 Receiver.
I was wondering if anyone knows what Alpine speakers fit in the doors and rear deck easily.
I know the amp isint really what i need because the receiver should power the tweets, door, and deck spkrs, right? Should i look for a singl channel amp for the sub?
I've done installs before, but only when given the correct parts. I'm not sure how the power distrbution goes.
Can someone give me some help?

go to the crutchfield site and it will list what fits your car. if you are only running 1 sub a mono amp would work great or a 2 channel amp that can be bridged. instalation is easy with all the right parts. i recommend getting a harness from a local stereo shop ($10-15). it will make the deck install so much easier. the deck will power the door and rear speakers fine. i just installed a new deck and the sound quality is way better than stock, and more adjustability. the treeters you can run in series with the front or rear speakers. you will only need to run 1 power from the battery to the amp for the sub. i recommend putting a fuse on it just in case. the amp comes with one but better safe than sorry. hope this helps.

I suggest you do some reading here is a great site http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/caraudio.asp . You will need to see what gauge wire to run from the batt to the amp. You will need to install a fuse less than 12in from battery as if there is a short your carpet will catch on fire if its not fused by batt and amp. If you want better sound use the 4 channel amp to power the front,back speaker and get a mono amp that has bass boost **** for the sub. If you have the double din for your radio, an equalizer and radio will be an excellent option. With a 3 channel equalizer you will not need the bass **** .
