base caps are they worth it?
i was talking to a guy here he sujested for the set up i have right now is adding in some base caps? they are suposed to make the stock 6x9's act as a mid base and take out the lows from them so i get all of the lows from my subs. this sound right? dose it even sound like somethign to even worrie about ?
Next month or two i plan to change all of the speackers out oif the car anyway and change them over to infinities and componets up front. So would this be a smart i dea to do it then or do it now?
Will it hurt me when i go to install the other speackers in to the car? as far as the way they are goign to sound?
Man the old days was hook the wires up and run with it LOL
Now you have to have a degree to hook stuff up in your car just to get some good sound out of it.
Anyway let me know your thoughts
Thanks

RE: base caps are they worth it?
yep!!
Thanks the old amp i had had the dials on it to change what went where. so i understand that .
I actually thought about useing the stock amp on the mids and higs for right now so that i would not blow them out or something. this way i could hook up the subs so i had some sound for the time being.
Basicly what i have right now is
subs in the box (2 10" crunch)
stock head unit
stock amp
stock speakers
All of this is soon to change but till then it is one at a time or all at once if the sponser pulls threw on me

RE: base caps are they worth it?
i plan to run the subs off thier own amp just have to find and buy one that i like for them.
the kid i got them from had a kicker amp 1000watt.
i just dont like kicker amps i havd bad luck with them so i will have to find some thing close to them as far as the power etc... havent reall started to shop for it yet.
but yeah i heard a monte he had replaced all the stock stuff with infintie speakers and i was sold on it. i wasent goign to look for subs ethier till i found the deal i did on theses,
other wise i was goign to leave welkl enough alone other then a better head unit.
I have the premier (pioneer) head unit so it has the better EQ in it and more power and would also allow me to finally get a radio station over here.
