I have a Kenwood KRC-391 Radio/Casette/CD Changer that is connected to the
OEM speakers in my Rover 25. I am going to fit KFC-1058S 100mm Dia and
KFC-6979ie 6"x9" connected to an Amp.

My question is, when you press the SRC button when the unit is switched on
Standby you get a list of speaker types to select from. Which is the best
setting for me to choose to get the best sound?

SP OFF
SP OEM
SP 6/6X9
SP 5/4

Cheers

Well currently i'd say set it to OEM, and when you have hooked up your amp
and new speakers, set it either to OFF if you are driving all the speakers
from the amp- you'll be using the RCA's, of if you are just driving the
front pair from the amp, and the rears from the HU, select errrrrmm
whichever sounds best!

I assume with the 6x9's on the shelf, you'll be driving from the back seat?

OEM speakers on Front and Rear Speaker connections from HU. KFC-1058S and
KFC-6979ie on parcel shelf connected to AMP then to RCA outputs on HU.

Current Amp is just a small SoundLab CPA 60N (30W X 2CH), What would I need
to connect a 12" or 10" Sub and Box to this setup ???

Will be changing the OEM fronts as soon as I figure out how to take the Door
cards off, and what size they are. Theres no screws and I dont want to yank
them off and not be able to put them back on. :-(
