| Be doing my speakers when me adapters eventually arrive from the US, there taking ages. Got my eye on some 2 Ohm JBL speakers. Got a 2 Ohm stable 6 Channel JBL amp and InPhase sub in me attic from me boy racer days. Have to get that down and dust it off been over 3 years since I had them in a car. What speakers are you getting? Are them rubber grommets the speaker wires/electric window wires go though near the door hinges a chew on to get off on Impreza? As the last car I put an amp in they were a nightmare. Looked at putting me Vibe QB69'S on the shelf as well, looks like that's a no go, no room. | |

| I wold only stick these in cos I have them in the house and from taking a quick look I could see there was no chance as there is to much clutter under the shelf, would foul one of the seat belt reels. Doubt it would pass an MOT if I removed that for a pair of speakers ha. http://www.tuningracingcars27.com/images/Vibe%20QB69.bmp | |

| Looking at getting two sets of JL components for mine, just don't know whether to amp them or just run them off my head unit | |

I would. I, they are the speakers I am lucking at but as they are 2 Ohm you should run them of an amp as most amps now are 2 ohm stable. Should only use 4ohm speakers off head units this is what 99% of them are rated at, you are running the risk of overheating the amp in the head unit. And plus it will sound miles better using an external amp. | |
