Howdy all, I've been driving my new STi for a few weeks now, and I think I'm ready to put together the stereo for it. I'm looking at Infinity for all the speakers with
Reference 5000cs Refs for the fronts, and
Reference 5002i Refs for the rear. I've been trying to take in as much info from these and other forums, and talked to a few friends as well as folks a few local large chains, and these seem like the best bet, especially for the price offered. Anyone have any input on these?
Along with that, I'm also trying to figure out if my current head unit, a Pioneer DEH-P6000, can drive them out of the box, or if I'll need to get additional hardware to make them work properly. Anyone have this HU, and use it with speakers like this, or have these speakers and know what kind of power they need to sound good?
Finally, after reading what seems like a hundred threads on speaker installs, I'm pretty nervous to do it myself. The most I've done is install a HU in my old Golf, so I'm a bit green. I have taken the door trim apart on my STi already (also managed to break the trim surrounding the door handle, oops
), as well as the entire center console, so the only thing that really scares me is if the wiring is overly complicated, or if I need to make spacers or anything to install the speakers. Has anyone had experience installing these speakers, and can you speak on the difficulties, if any, you encountered with them? Thanks for any help you folks can provide!
