I have not done the install yet lol, unfortunately I’m not in spot to make it happen right now. I will certainly update the thread when I get it in. I was also having a hard time finding a stealthy setup, but with the input from all the awesome folks here I’m feeling confident with this build...

Are you still looking for these? I have a pair in the Bay Area

Wow great to know, thanks for the pro tip too

Ya, based on that I think I will go with the ACM. Again I want this to be a simple switch.

Ok ya I was beginning to think of contingencies for the Key 200.4, and that ACM has solid reviews and looks super comparable. Wild that the DSP version is so expensive, $900 on Crutchfield! Is it worth waiting and hoping for a kicker key to get dsp, or can I do some of that via ForScan? Also...

Ok got it, so if I’m using the OEM location, it will be easiest to do a two amp setup. I appreciate all the help, I think I have finally landed on my blueprint! The ole ADD brain really took over on this brainstorm, but I think I finally herded all my mental cats into one pasture here. When I...

I guess another question for that would be, if I install the Kicker Key 200.4 in the head unit up front, and swap out the OEM dummy amp, would the kicker key still have some effect on the amp in the back? Hopefully that’s not a dumb question 🤣

So now that I realize I can swap out the dummy amp and sub so easily, I want to go that route and keep things hidden if you will. So I was thinking I would run the Kicker Key 500.1 for a Focal 8” sub in the OEM location, and then the Key 200.4 in the dash unit for the 6 speakers. But then...

@RagnarKon is it possible to replace the dummy amp with an amp that can power the sub and after market speakers? ie could I put for example the audio control 5.1300 dsp amp in that OEM dummy location?

That makes sense, any suggestions on alternative amps for that setup? I also saw Focal has this sub with great reviews. It also seems to be better suited towards smaller enclosures which is ideal for the OEM location. https://www.crutchfield.com/p_091SUBP20S/Focal-P-20-FSE.html

Ya that is exactly how I’m feeling lol, I can play around with this and spend all my money experimenting. Which, funny enough, I just saw your other post @RagnarKon about being able to swap out the dummy sub and amp for real products with a simple switch, and now I’m thinking that might be my...

So help me understand the difference here. The coax are kind of like two speakers in one right? Catching high and mid range sound (I think lol). So is the component only focused on one range? Sorry, I’m definitely a rookie in the audio game

So, in your opinion, would this setup cover all the bases (mids, lows, highs, bass, etc.)? 4” dash: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_20647KSC40/Kicker-47KSC404.html 6.5” kicker panel: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_091ACX165/Focal-ACX-165.html 6.5” SSV Pods...

Ya that’s an interesting point, after earlier recommendations, I’m thinking instead of the two amp setup of going with the Audiocontrol 5.1300 DSP amp, which as you mentioned would help with the tuning I think. As you mention the mid vs high speakers, I also remembered @RagnarKon saying an...

To clarify my last post, what I’m thinking now is this: 4” dash speaker:https://www.crutchfield.com/p_091ACX100/Focal-ACX-100.html 6.5” kick panel speaker: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_091ACX165/Focal-ACX-165.html 6.5” SSV pod...

So after researching the speakers you all suggested, I was leaning towards the focal speakers, but I’m starting to realize I might need to mix and match. After doing more research, I found that the focals I’m looking at would fit in the dash 4” location and the front 6.5” kick panel location...

Ok that makes more sense, I was definitely looking at the wrong focals before. Those focals sound great based on the comparison tool on Crutchfield, however accurate that is lol, and are pretty similar in price. I listen to a wide range of music (rock, rap, blues, country, etc) and the focals...

@RagnarKon and @Pressurized are these the infinity speakers you were talking about? 4”:https://www.crutchfield.com/p_108R4032CM/Infinity-Reference-REF-4032cfx.html 6.5”: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_108R6532EM/Infinity-Reference-REF-6532ex.html I looked into the Focal, and they look awesome...
