@Libis.
Why do you want to connect 6 speakers? 4 speakers (One in each door) will do good. If you find that to be not bass happy, then you can install a sub in the boot and go boom boom!

Avoid the 6X9s. Not very much needed unless you really dont want to to go for a sub in the future.

Don't think of behind headrest etc... The car comes with good stock locations.

Yow! 6 speakers? Looks I read your first post wrong. In that case, he was right. Don't connect 6 speakers to the HU.

And with the way the stock provisions are, I think giving up the 6x9s would be better.

Like Zak said, if you want more bass, get a sub later. Screwing boxes on the rear parcel tray would be unsightly. Dont!

I know. I did not know if I had the right to disclose them. So I used the text of a poem we had learnt in school "Blind men and an elephant".

check the HU and wires. All wires even those that go from the XO to the components. My guess is that it is the HU.

I have had this trouble before with a Blaupukt HU. At the first notch of volume increase, there is a hiss. Call your blaupunkt service guy.

There are lot of different brands out there in the market and each and every brand is good and nobody sells bad products (OK, there maybe a few exceptions. But in general...). It is a matter of one's listening tastes and liking.

To determine what would suit you best is to listen to them.

Hi Sam,
I got myself a Civic and I put in the following...Polk comps upfront (momo series), coaxials in the rear (polk momo series), JBL sub in the boot, JBL touring series monoblock amp for the sub and an Alpine 4-way for the speakers, with a JVC EXAD Dvd player as the head unit. Good choice???

Why not? Did you not like the sound? Damping and good wires were used I assume. I think that is an Alpine 4 channel amp for the speakers.
