If you have a system please post it here. I'm curious to see what other Forte / Forte Koup drivers have chosen for subwoofers, amps, tweeters, mids and ect.


For my Forte Koup SX, I have a 10in Alpine Type R with an Alpine PDX M6 amp

I also have my subwoofer in a ported box. Haha I'm really lucky I live near a car store that specializes in Alpine and Rockford Fosgate systems. Of course I ordered everything from the internet and got it cheaper than MSRP and the store's prices

D113 you are my hero, ha I'm up in Massachusetts right near Boston. If you ever come by I need to see / hear your system

 

[powerj2]

Picturess!~!!

 

[Joechicklets]

D113 how much did that all cost if you don't mind my asking? Not to mention how many hours it must of taken to do it all yourself.

 

[D113]

I dunno, I did it over a period of time, added, changed, added etc. Prolly about 3 G's in gear, and maybe 100 man hours. I paid a company to install all the audio, and I did all the deadening.

wooo. build logs.

You sound excited,.. Try to control it!

12 inch kicker comps,
800 watt orion amp
in a forte koup

I've sat in D113 front passenger seat...the power from the front door speaker was so powerful that the sound waves was tickling my legs!!!!!

A totally awesome sound system!!!

I have JBL speakers in the front, rears are still OEM, old school 2 X 10' Kicker subs powered by an alpine sub.
My future plans...are of course to replace the rears with JBLs and a 4 channel amp to power up the interior speakers.
