audio set-up for beginners [continued]

[retsuyaken]

How many watts you need... depends on your system. The three most tell-tale indicators are: How loudly do you listen? How is your installation? How sensitive are your drivers?

SQ has never been loudness wars. It has always been: tonality, soundstaging, and imaging. If you do not know what those three are, Google is your friend. For what it's worth, most "SQ" judging sessions consume less than 200W in most cases.

I keep telling people. There's no SQ watts, there's no LnC watts. Watts is a measurement of rate of energy transfer. There's only OUTPUT. You can have a 2000W RMS mono amplifier feeding a 0.75 cu.ft sealed box and my 3 cu.ft ported box with 300W of power will STILL be louder.

People are overthinking your wattage needs and underestimating how powerful 100 watts really is. In fact, when you're simply doing background listening (80dB), you're using something like <20W of power.

Salamat sa inputs sir. I went for Kicker DS65. Kaso next week ko pa malalaman ang quality ng Kicker. Thanks again.

Noob here....My present audio setup for my Innova vvti 2008 is still the 2din stock audio (no video). Now 7inch tablets are quite cheap nowadays. Would a 7inch tab fit the audio compartment of innova? How about the audio connections or stock speakers of the car would it be workable?

The most common way is integration of the tablet and your head unit. This might come in the form of AUX or for the likes of iPads, their lightning connectors which are digital.

There's no way to make a tablet work in a car as a standalone device.

Depends on what your level of malakas is.

Distortion is "accumulated' naman kasi. Hindi lang yan sa speakers.. amplifiers also have their distortion numbers (although small compared to speakers) and once they go clipping, talagang puro distortion yan since you're not hearing sine waves anymore but square-ish signal waves.

If you really want malakas, go pro-audio. These are the speakers you see from Beyma, Cadence, or even Lightning Lab raw drivers. These are drivers that are designed to be very sensitive hence take little power to go loud.
