Hey guys! I am from Brazil but I would like to know if you guys can help me a out a little

I am building a new system, which is gonna be a 3-way active. The car is a VW Polo Hatch 2003.

The subwoofer and sub amp I am using from my old system, which will be a JL Audio 10W6v2 and a Rockford Fosgate 500M.

As far as the new system goes I think it will be something like that:

Headunit
Alpine IVA-W200
Alpine PXA-H701
PAC TR-7

Front Stage
TW – Hybrid Audio Legatia 1 (a-pillar)
MIDR – Hybrid Audio Legatia 3 (a-pillar)
MID – Dynaudio MW162 (deadened door)

Stereo Amplifier
DLS Ultimate RA20 (2x 130w)
DLS Ultimate RA40 (4x 75w)
or
Alpine PDX-2.150 (2x 150w)
Alpine PDX-4.150 (4x 150w)

Subwoofer
JL Audio 10W6v2

Sub Amplifier
Rockford Fosgate 500M


Any suggestion guys? Would you change anything? Thank you very much!

Welcome to the Forum... It looks like you have a a great start there, I'd go for the DLS amps, over the PDX series, bu other than that, looks like it will sound really good with a good install..

make sure to post updates as you install..

Thx mate.

I will make to post all the progress of the install here as well.

It will take some time since I am coming to the US where I am staying till April (winter season in Colorado). I will buy most of this stuff in the US since it is cheaper compared to Brazil due to import taxes.

A lot of people seem to really nice the DLS Reference line. Anyone made any testes?

Would you guys recommend on changing anything?

Thanks guys!

your equipment is more than excellent, to give you an example of a system that recently came in third in a usaci world championship I'll list the components here:

alpine dva 9860
alpine pxah701
phoenix gold xmax 10" front woofer
2 kicker 12" l5 woofers for spl
2 alpine mrvf345 amplifiers
1 alpine mrdm1005
1pr avi bsm160 midranges
1 pr morel mdt30 tweeters

This should tell you that great sq is more a function of install technique, tuning and choosing the right component to do the job, than simply choosing brands and models based on other's opinions!
