Ive got an 03 ex coupe, i wanna know what watts/channel the factory head unit dishes out, because i love the look and wouldnt want to upgrade the head unit along with the speakers... so any stats would be appreciated

 

Knowing Honda, it's the bare minimum. I'd like to know the same for mine, but I think that it's only 40 watts/channel.

 

rms is probably about 8-12 watts per channel. the max might say 40 watts but that doesn't really matter. my pioneer 8400 says 50x4 but I was told at most it only gets 16-18 which is a little under what pioneer claims(22watts).

 

03 coupe is 180w I think and take that and divide by 6 speakers...

I have sedan its only 120w, we got JIPPED!!! FUC*ERS honda, LOL

Yea I love stock look too but, damn this face plate comming off crap is getting old... DAMN FL HEAT!!!

 

I see people complaining about the stock system in the coupes...but its more than enough...the bass is loud a hell, and when you wanna roll up in style, put the volume to about 30 and everyone with in a block can hear it even with the windows up.

 

i have the sedan and it was lacking bass until i added 2 10's. it's pretty clear sounding system tough comared to my 97 lude

 

Yea its a good system, I mean I popped some 12's in and would like to be able to go a LITTLE bit louder ONLY for the fact that some CD's and some radio stations are not as loud as others so I have to max the radio to get where I want it... but most of the time I dont pass 30... I dont like putting it at 40 but I would like to see it a tad louder, like the coupe can and I would be good but I dont wana add an amp for such minor amount of more loundness I want... Just going to get some better sensitivity speakers...
