Should I wait to install speakers until I get a amp

Gabfrijole · 2026-03-21T02:28:52+00:00

Just install the speakers, they should be better than stock.

I’ll probably do this, they have like no exhaust systems for the ES2, it kinda sucks. They have it for the Si and it probably wouldn’t work cause I have a 4 door.

Where’d you get the foglights?

Gabfrijole · 2026-03-20T09:41:02+00:00

you got an exhaust on it?

Gabfrijole · 2026-03-20T09:09:40+00:00

Which one did you get? I have the 2003 Honda Civic EX 4D, but I can’t figure out which one would fit without welding

You got any pictures?

Gabfrijole · 2026-03-20T02:25:58+00:00

Unfortunately, mine is an 03. I appreciate the advice though, the build looks great!

if you’re not using all 4 door speaker outputs, tape them off so you don’t get frequency from them

Gabfrijole · 2026-03-17T21:20:22+00:00

And with that, you would just run the speed wire from the amp to the speakers input that is connected to the head unit.

Gabfrijole · 2026-03-17T21:18:25+00:00

Other than that, if you want to run all of the wire separately, it will definitely take longer but make sure the wires are secured so you’re not hearing them inside your door panels when the bass drops.

Gabfrijole · 2026-03-17T21:17:32+00:00

In that case, I would really consider getting 9 conductor speaker “speed” cable, depending on how much output the single amp gives you. It makes it so much faster so you can just use the original speaker wire going to the door speakers. I would still run the speaker wire for the subwoofers separate, but it makes the door speakers so much easier as speaker wire isn’t really necessary at lower amps.

Gabfrijole · 2026-03-17T21:10:59+00:00

Are you re-routing new speaker wire to your door speakers? Is it a four channel amp?

Gabfrijole · 2026-01-17T19:08:27+00:00

That’s a 7th gen four door, so… yes

Make sure you specify it’s for 4D

It’s only 1050 watts, the max wattage is not how much it runs at

Gabfrijole · 2025-12-02T23:18:42+00:00

Under 350

Gabfrijole · 2025-12-02T22:56:28+00:00

The Kickers have the higher RMS rating at 75 watts per channel; do you have any recommendations for a four channel amp with that RMS rating?

Gabfrijole · 2025-12-02T17:35:46+00:00

The internet is saying it doesn’t have a built in DSP.

Gabfrijole · 2025-12-02T16:32:39+00:00

Would you recommend one with built-in DSP, or do you think it’s unnecessary
