2007 Jetta Speaker Upgrade. Have Questions.

[silentnite2608]

The 2007 Jetta base has
1" tweet
4" mid
6.5" woof

In the front doors

And

Another Pair of 6.5 in the rear doors?

So I would need a head unit that has six preamp outs?
1 Set For Front Doors
1 Set For Rear Doors
1 Set For Sub/Subs

Now I'm Confuse as what type of Amp I need to power the front doors
4 Channel or 6 Channel?

And Just a 2 channel amp for the rear

Finally Amp Mono For sub.

Thank you in advance.

Well what are you trying to accomplish? If you're keeping the factory radio, the factory amplifier will take care of the amplification if you were just changing out the radio.

If you want to do a full system overall then that's when it gets expensive.

You can either do a 2-way component in the front and eliminate the 4" mid; a 3-way component in the front.

If you go passive you just need a 4 channel (1 channel for front left, 1 for front right, 1 for rear left, 1 for rear right).

If you are running active (first of all you'd need a processor), then you'd need a 6 channel if you're doing active 2-way in the front and coaxial in the rear. If you're going active 3-way front then you'll need a 6 channel for the front, and 2 channel for the rear.

Personally, if you're on a budget, I'd do passive 3-way up front (still gonna be somewhat expensive depending on what you get), coaxial in the rear, a nice 10" or 12" and a high quality 5 channel. Run a new headunit or do a simple 5 channel processor (such as the Audison Bit Ten) and keep the factory radio but get the amazing sound upgrade.

Feel free to hit me up if you want some product suggestions and pricing.

Replace the whole thing. All the speakers and the headunit. Im not followingon the processor part. Or the active or passice part

I recently upgraded my whole stock Monsoon system in my 2002 Passat Wagon and it's sound awesome. The system consisted of an Alpine CDA-9887 head unit, Alpine MRV-450, MB Quart PVI 216 components (s-sets) Front & Rear doors and a single 10" Boston Acoustic Box subwoofer. The Alpine amp is 5 channel amplifier. 4-channels feeds 50watts to all 4 corners MB Quarts and 1-channel 200watts to the 10" sub. After I spent an hour tweeking all the settings on the alpine deck and amp it sound is audiophile quality. All my music files (CD's & MP3's) sound so much better that I look forward to my commute to work. So to answer your question. If you want to run two sub woofers you may want a 6-channel amp, but you can parallel wire the fifth channel on a 5-channel amp to run two sub woofer. Yet it all depends on the type of subwoofers and the amount of bass you want. If your more into sound quality than a bass junkie you might consider just a 5-channel and single 10" or 12" subwoofer. Just my opinion.

I'd go 3-way "quasi-active" up front, no rear fill, a sub, 5-channel amp, and a processor.
I'd run the tweeter and mid passive on channels 1 & 2, and the mid-bass on 3 & 4.

And you can fit up to an 8" woofer in the doors.
