I need help with car audio.....?
I drive a 1991 Acura legend and the stock sound system is getting bad- the speakers are ok, but the bass is terrible. If I want to buy a sub from Best Buy or something do I need to get an amp with it? I'm looking for value- I don't have a huge amount of money to spend. I know nothing about car audio- so if you have any recommendations or advice- I would appreciate it. thanks a bunch!

ya you do need an amp because your base head unit wont turn out enough power for the speakers. These are not cheap and are usually about $150. But don't by your stuff from best buy, They are really over priced.- go to http://www.sonicelectronix.com/ for everything, ive only heard good reviews

Well if you looking to have a real deep sup that will shake your car then ya your going to need a sub because a head unit will only put out about 52 watts per speaker if its a good one. If you put a nice amp in there the speakers will take so much more and sound a lot better and clearer. You can find an alright amp pretty cheap and it would be a lot better than nothing. But for just a overall good sound with an average bass you wouldn't need anything like an amp. I just put new head unit and speakers in my car and they sound amazing and very load but the bass will not shake the whole car or anything like that.
Hope this help.
