G'day all,
sorry for the essay im about to write ya's, but im in a bit of a pickle.
so i've put in my new soundstream rubicon speakers and tweaters...150watt rms...i've had a lot of help from you guys about how i go about installing them with the crossover etc and it got me through and they work...although im not very happy with them...they actually sound worse then my original speakers in my opinion...as soon as i put a bit of bass on, all clarity goes out the window...so my assumption is that these speakers need to be amplified (i know they need to be to get maximum performance).
would the speakers being un amplified contribute to why they sound so shitty?...what amp would i need anyways..i've been told to run something less then 150 watt rms so i don't blow the speakers, ive been told to run more then 150 watt rms so i don't overload the amp with heat so it shits itself etc
and now im rather confused as to what to use and what wattage and a rough price...i am looking at getting a sub later on though, so depending on the price of this amp to power the speakers may determine whether i get a bigger amp to power the speakers plus the sub i get later on aswell.
could someone shed some light please!
cheers everyone
