Need advice!!
 
Hi guys.

I've had my FR-S for almost a year and love it. It's time now for the first big mod: almost complete overhaul of the audio system. I wanna know if I run a JL audio amp (JX360/2), Alpine SPR-60C, Sound Ordnance B-8PTD, Clarion EQS746, all of this with the stock HU, would any of this cause problems with the battery in anyway?

Plus I'm doing the radar hardwire (Escort smartcord).

Any input is appreciated since its the first time I'm fiddling with something this big, probably going to leave the install to the geeksquad guys since there aren't any good audio shops where I live.

IMO go aftermarket HU. Much better tunability then stock. I'm running a kenwood touch screen w/ back up cam and JL amp matched with a JL wv3 10" in a ported box. Sounds great! Only doin upgrade I've considered is new mids. But the factory speakers sound great the way I have it tuned.

My advice would be to post this in the correct section.

Doesn't the tunability issue go away since I'm already planning on installing an EQ?
@SloS14 don't know how to move it (new here), mods do work

Hello Black_Pearl ...... I figure your OEM battery can handle it .... ;)
