New setup with Old Stuff, Recomendations or Suggestions??
Well im upgrading my stereo using some older parts i had laying around. I dont think its to fancy or anything like that but i feel like it will sound pretty good, or atleast i hope.
I dont have the specs for everything because some of the stuff is in the car and i forget te exact model numbers and stuff but i have most of the info.
Getting a nice wiring setup from Addiction soon that will be able to handle this stuff with no prob:

Heres a pic of everything;

Not sure exactly which ones they are but there kinda old but seem to work really well. I have had them for some time now and they sound pretty good. Maybe ill pull the door panels off and have a look at them to get some more details.

Rockford Fosgate FRC3206 6-3/4" 2-way Speakers 50/100
http://www.crutchfield.com/p_575FRC3...206.html?tp=94
Sub:

http://www.crutchfield.com/p_1081040...0w.html?tp=111
So from looking at this pic:

Im pretty sure i need to hook up the +A-B for one speaker and +C-D for two?
The RF amp is pretty straight forward since i cant run 2ohm standard hook up will give me the 4ohm i can run.
Ill have to test the crossover points as i have never run a full standalone crossover like this but im hoping that all of these components will give me a good sounding system.
Since the radio seems to have a set up Sub outputs would it be better to run the crossover or just use the Sub outputs and built in crossover on the radio?
Or maybe i use the crossover for just the front and rears but run the sub off of the radio for more volume control from inside the car to the subs?
Well that's everything so please feel free to post up some comments and possible direction as to what i should use and how i should hook everything up.
