I've decided to upgrade amp and speakers (after updating just stereo and realizing that's not enough)
Planning to use this thread as documentation and get any suggestions
Plan (Let me know if all that sounds logically correct):
1. Use 4 channel amp supporting both 4ohm and 2ohm speakers.
2. Use 4 ohm speakers in front 2x6.5 inch shallow mount, 2x4 inch,
3. Use either 4ohm or 2ohm in rear 2x5.25 inch
3. Front door and dash (2x6.5 inch shallow and 2x4inch) are in parallel so 2ohm mode of amp would help
4. Rear door (2x5.25inch) speakers would work on whatever ohm mode
5. Use mono channel amp for sub
6. Get 4inch? (not sure about original size) sub OR fit a little bigger one in there
Now for actual products - these are not finalized (this is where suggestions would help):
AMP: Rockford Fosgate R2-500X4 - https://www.crutchfield.com/p_575R2500X4/Rockford-Fosgate-R2-500X4.html (75W at 4ohm and 125W at 2ohm)
Speakers:
Front door:
Amazon.com - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FUZV7ZG/ (55W)
Infinity Reference REF607F - https://www.crutchfield.com/p_108R607F/Infinity-Reference-REF607F.html (Are these shallow?) (60W)
Rear door:
Polk Audio MM 522 - https://www.crutchfield.com/p_107MM522/Polk-Audio-MM-522.html (4ohm @ 80W)
Front dash:
Kicker KSC40 - https://www.crutchfield.com/p_20651KSC40/Kicker-KSC40.html (4ohm @75W)
Total front speakers: ~130W, amp 125W @2ohm
Rear speakers: 75W, amp 75W
Sub amp: Rockford Fosgate R2-500X1 - https://www.crutchfield.com/p_575R2500X1/Rockford-Fosgate-R2-500X1.html (300W @4ohm)
Subwoofer: couldn't find anything around 4inches, maybe I can fit a little bigger in there?
Planning to put 4 channel amp behind glove box.
mono amp can sit near sub itself (removing 6 CD box)
[EDIT] Fuse box:
Apart from all this: can I source rear panel from 80 series land cruiser somewhere? (to install bigger sub if needed)
