VW Caddy 2010 Focal K2 and JL audio JX400

Post by Jay_Essex »

Hi,

Please could anyone tell me if these Focal K2's https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOCAL-ES165K ... 4276703631 would fit the front doors on a 2010 mk3 VW Caddy and would this be a good amp https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JL-Audio-JX4 ... 4168974824 to power them? has anyone got a setup like this in their van?

Thanks in advance

Jay

I could be wrong but that price seems very high. Alpine amps very good for lot less. Do you have sub already and want amp to drive all? Is so i wouldnt go for that amp. Alpine r-a60f is more powerful and much cheaper. I have had alpines over the years and very solid

That price is extortionate mate especially for that amp. If your only going to be running front speakers you won’t need a 4 channel amp. Good to have a 4 channel amp though as you can add rear speakers or bridge the rear channels for a sub.

There’s plenty of good speaker sets on eBay for a caddy. Search.... Vw caddy component speakers or check skiptoncaraudio out on Instagram. They make plug and play set up’s.

Very expensive for that amp!!
I've got some jl audio C1 component for £70 run straight of an aftermarket headunit seems to be more than enough to power them. Sounds a lot better than standard.

I have an old jbl sub in the back behind the bulkhead and don't even turn it on.
Looking to get a jl audio sub behind the drivers seat in future but tbh the speakers sound great.
Have heard good things about focal too though.
