Buying aftermarket HU

[trickyazn]

yes another HU question. basically im going to buy an aftermarket HU from another TN member on the forum and want to stay away from changing the speakers for a while. so basically i want to keep my stock speakers from blowing! should i turn the treble/bass all the way down to perserve the speakers or its inevitable that the speakers will blow Kenwood = 22 watts and stock 2001 camry speakers are 15watt.

am i better off leaving the stock unit there or what?

I run a pioneer p80mp, it's rms is 28 x 4, and it's 60x4 max.


I've had it on for the last six months on the stock speakers. I haven't had any problems with my speakers and they are 10 years old.

I keep hoping they do blow so I can have an excuse to get new ones, but they haven't. So you have plenty of time to shope for new speakers.

edit: I run the unit like normal--- ie to my tastes.

You'll be fine. I had a Kenwood unit that put out 22W RMS and 50W peak to the original speakers. It ran fine for over a year without having to tweak any settings, ie lower teh trebble and bass.
