hey guys im new to this so i hope im in the right place if im not excuse me please redirect me though..
i have a sportswagon and i want to upgrade my sound system
its not like a normal car where you can buy a headdeck and install it in because the model 2012 sportswagon
has the big as deck already in it
im looking for
spearks sub amp the basic's anything better then the standard i guess
can anybody help cheers
crickets...2 days and not one post?!?!?
First up, get a LOC (Line Out Converter) such as a Stinger SGN13 or similar (as they have a ground wire to assist in removing any alternator whine, most LOC's don't);
Stinger Electronics | Product Details), buy an amp with high level (speaker) inputs or if you want to spend more, a Signal Processor such as Audiocontrol LC6i or Rockford 3SIXTY
(nb: lots of other brands, these are just 2 of the better examples JC members in the Car Audio section suggest and rarely complain about)
Now your head unit is like another other aftermarket head unit with RCA outs.
Have a read through here for details on speaker sizes and what will fit:

Basically replace stock 6" speakers with 6" or 6'5", whatever brand floats your boat.
Same with amp and sub, it's all down to money and if you want to use your wagon.
Which if you do want to use your wagon, Bass Tubes seem to be a good option:

As for your amp, get remote from here:

Power and ground as per normal/amp install instructions.
Any further questions, post in the Car Audio section, or maybe even in the VE Section, as you may get a better response (than 1 answer in 2 days...)

There's also 2 good threads that have been Stickied in Car Audio - have a read through these
