- VS Commodore Omega
I know it's not a commodore but you guys are geniuses so I thought, why not lol...
I just got an AU1 Futura to replace my VS Commodore.
In the Commodore I had components in the front (tweaters in the dash, 6.5" woofers made to fit in doors, splits on the fuse cover door and amp in the boot). In the parcel shelf a pair of 6" coaxials for rear fill and a 12" sub/amp in the boot.
I would like to fit these into the AU although it's got 5x7" holes and from what I gather no factory position to mount the tweeters.
So I wonder, Would I need to create/find some sort of adapter, and would it be worthwhile to install the tweaters in the door, possibly next to the woofers or should I just save myself a lot of time and only go for coaxials all around? Maybe invest in 5x7"s? The range of choice in 5x7" is very poor I've found.
Also it's currently got what looks like a cheaper Kenwood brand head unit. Should I swap this over for my Pioneer head unit? They both have MP3 and WMA which I want but would there be a difference in audio output quality, especially if the coaxials are going to run off the head unit? I think both are 4x50w.
Also any tips or ideas would of coarse be appreciated.
Thanks guys
