[QUOTE="Nkosibaas, post: 6942029, member: 624912"] Hey all! I know you never see the end of these "what should I get for the most roxzorz system ever. I have $221 to spend" posts. I used to be very into car audio before I got busy with college and started riding motorcycles for years. Now I bought a lil truck for commuting and to tow the bikes and I want a good system in it. SPL is not as much of a concern to me considering the size of the cab (it's an '08 so it's not as teeny as the old ones but it's still not a large space) I think anything decent is going to be loud in there, and quality is much more important to me. I'd still like it to be loud enough that I wouldn't want to crank it all the way up very often [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif[/IMG] So here's the deal, my budget is I think acceptable to cover a decent install and I think I want: [LIST] [*]New HU - Don't care too much about all the bells and whistles, doesn't need to have DVD or any of that crap, just provide high quality sound/power.
