A nine.2x will not match the impedence of the clearance 13Ov2's. They only lowered the price on the dual 4 ohm version and not the dual 2.

You would be much better off getting two of the clearance 130's and a b stock nine.1.

Type b Stock in the search box and you can get a nine.1 for i beleive $250.

wow. thanks a lot. saves my ***, lol


i went to buy the two 13ov.2's, transfered the money from savings to checking, paid with paypal and found out i have a paypal balance of 163 dollars. SCORE. Its like finding 163 one dollar bills on the ground, lol


is there a difference between the dual 2 and dual 4 voice coils?


So thats 700$ worth of equipment for 390$, not bad at all.

yea ones dual 2ohm and the other dual 4ohm <<< this only matters when picking an amp to run them. Neither is superior to the other. Each one just gives you different wiring options.

You would also really enjoy buying a bstock nine.2 and powering those comps I mentioned above. That will make a much larger difference to overall sound then just adding a sub. It also means you buy and install the wiring once.

Trust us when we tell you to do the whole thing. If my wife can tell the difference and wants full range hifi, you will too.

So iv decided on my final setup... It will be:

2 x 13Ov.2's
1 x Nine.1
1 x eDi 6000 v .2 (Eu-630 Tweeter (x2), Eu-630 Midrange (x2), X3 Crossover (x2))
1 x Nine.2

I have purchased the 13Ov2's and the Nine.1, will be purchasing the eDi 6000 next, and hopefully the nine.2 shortly thereafter.

Now, for the wiring. How much speaker cable do you think ill need and what guages? Also, I saw a bunch of amp wiring kits with fuses in them.. Do i need to run a fuse? Or do the eD amps have one built in?

Also... are all sound deadining stuff the same?

Quick question, with the eDi set, would i be better off using the 2 channel nine.2 or the 4 channel nine.4 to run the two tweeters and two comps? One channel per speaker, or one channel per two speakers? The nine.4 is only 10$ more..

1. YOUMUST RUN A FUSE!!!

2. Speaker wire gauge around 12-14 is more then enough for the comps and subs. You could even use 16 on the comps and get away with it, especially after the crossover.

3. Edead is OK sound deadening but if you live in a high heat area get something else, mine has fallen off over time and other brands will stick better.

I must run a fuse, okay.. Thanks, Ill have to stick one in there somewhere

should i go with the nine.2 or the nine.4 for the comp set?

also should i run the tweeters in the door, or put them in the dash? My dash has two 3.5 speakers in them already... but ones blown out. Should i put the tweeters where those speakers are? I was planning on disconnecting the 3.5's

for sound damping check out a newer brand called second skin. I recently was able to get my hands on some and it is the best I have worked with yet...
