Do I need an amp for 6x9's?
 
Hi all,

I should probably post this in an ICE forum somewhere but that means I have to register and I'm not new here so...

I have a Peugeot 307 with a Pioneer headunit and pioneer front speakers (and tweeters) which is ok - aka not good enough.

I'm thinking of putting some 3 or 4-way 6x9 pioneers in the parcel shelf to get a more all-round sound and to add some bass because the 13cm's I've got in the front are mainly mid and the dash-mounted tweeters for treble.

I cant get a sub cos I need the room in the boot.

So the question is, will I need to buy an amplifer when I buy the 6x9's or can I connect them up to the fitted head-unit with no loss of sound quality?

Discuss...:D

no but its advised a small one will do also you can stick a small 8 inch sun in the centre of the parcelself without losing space

but i must also agree with yc, on a bike forum it does scream chav but now you have an answer

now get your neons and 16 year old blonde in the passanger seat and your sorted :)

I thought I'd be safe in the 'Idle Banter' section but clearly not! You live and learn!

I ran a pair of 6 x 9's off a Pioneer 4 x 35 watt head unit a few years ago. I never noticed any appreciably loss in sound quality compared with a friends amp'd similarly setup system.

I'd be inclined to setup it up and see what it sounds like and take it from there. If you are crafy with the install I'd suspect you'd be able to mount hide the amp away and make a decent job out of it.

If you want a more sensible answer, PM Viney on here, he knows his stuff.
