    The 2009-2013 6 Picture ONLY thread (NO DISCUSSION!)

    Here is one of my 2009 6s GT. Black seems to be a popular color. Would have preferred Silver w/Black Interior, but could not find one in my area.

    advice on audio mods for new Mazda6

    Really? Money no object and you would select Infinity? Have you even heard component kits from Focal, Hertz or many other higher quality manufacturers? I have some older MB Quarts (from when they were good) from another vehicle I have thought about installing, but will seriously consider going...

    Back Again....

    For those that can remember back to the height of the Protege5 days...I was quite active on these forums. Now I am back with a 2009 Mazda 6s grand Touring. Gonna get back into the swing of things and hopefully contribute as well as take in much information.

    18" sub in Mazda 6

    Totally unecessary, considering you can get close to 145 out of a single 10"

    I'm Back....

    Name is Mike and I have been a member here for a long time. Have been out of the Mazda scene for some time since the Protege5, but now am looking at getting a vehicle with a little better fuel economy than my TrailblazerSS. The 12-14mpg is killing us. I am looking at the MazdaSpeed6 and found a...

    help me pick/place new amp

    I wish I still had pics of mine as I had the sub (12") on the right side and had 3 JBL amps in the center in the spare hole.

    So HOW do you shop for an amp?

    Did you get an amp yet? I have used Kicker, Fosgate, MTX, JBL even US Acoustics and MA Audio. All have given decent performance for their costs. I most recently used an MTX 6004 (75x4) in a 3-way setup, the 3&4 channels bridged for my sub. and never had a problem with it. I am now going to...

    help me pick/place new amp

    You've got JL Sub and a 500/1 already, why not stick with JL. The 300/2 would be an excellent choice to integrate into the system. Keep the gains down and you will be fine.
