Audio upgrade

Recommended Posts

As the weather is finally getting better it’s time to upgrade the audio in my 86, I intend to get an amp instead of a new head unit as I’m happy with it apart from the volume & no base (I really miss my sub) & the sat nav works ok for me although it doesn’t pick up all speed cameras where I live which have been there for years. Apart from that it does what I need it to do so I’m thinking of getting either a Pioneer GM-D8604 or an Alpine PMX-F640

Both have speaker level input & pre out for the amp for my sub. I think the touch 2 has slightly different wiring than the older model & wondering if anyone can help me identify the speaker outputs from the touch 2


I have Focal speakers already & the amp & sub from my Celica so just need to get on with it


One thing I need to do first is soundproofing & would like some advice on what the best places everyone has used it & what materials you used, I also intend to replace the puny little speakers in the back with a nice set of 6x9’s as I like to be enveloped in sound. One last thing is to somehow be able to fix my sub so it wont slide around when I have a little play so will need to somehow strap it to one side of the boot
