I think either of the 2 ok lang naman but marami akong nakikita na helix amp ang combo para sa focal expert.

Sa totoo lang boss never pa ako nakakita ng focal seps na powered by focal amps. Usually audison/helix/rockford ang terno.

Highly recommended po kasi ng installer ko (simplesound) sir ang helix or audison..mas maganda daw po kasi ipair ang focal seps sa dalawa na yan sir..tnx sa mga inputs sir

if in any case i would want to hook up a pair of coaxials with an amplifier, how many channels do i need? is it 4ch also?
a pair for the woofer and a pair for the tweeters? is this how it works?, complete newbie regarding audio setups, i just don't want to end up paying when its not needed.

say for example i would want to install a PC 165F a Focal Expert Coaxial having nom power of 70w RMS, with an impedance of 4 ohms. and as per what i've read at Crutchfield, amp should range between 75%-150% of what the speakers RMS is. so tentatively it will be 55w-105w range. so approximately a Helix G4 having * 4 Ohms 4 x 80 will be satisfactory right?..

this (car audio) is just rocket science for me, no idea from the beginning, awaiting for your inputs guys, thanks in advance.

i thought so too, majority of the focal seps are being paired with helix or audisons. i have only seen some post twice from timsaudiogarage being a full focal setup (seps with fpx amps), but then again, so you were saying focal fpx's line doesn't blend well with its speakers?

probably, its quite confusing having built their (focal) own amps but doesn't juice well with their speakers, or i might be wrong, maybe financial constraint is also being a factor that's why we don't usually see a focal seps and an amplifier set? how much does a helix g4 and g1 cost by the way? i always see these combos from simplesound.

is it an integration install? what is your proposed setup btw, if you dont mind if i ask?
how many days would you think they could finish the installation?
hoping you would share your setup with pics here at tsikot.
