Or would I be best to look at something like a Sony XAV-AX8000?

I am looking at putting a larger screen headunit into my 2002 Chevrolet Silverado (currently DEH-8800BHS) as I'd like to get things like navigation without putting my phone on the dash. I've been looking into Eonon and am wondering if those type of units have decent RCA outputs? I will be...

I'm excited. How well do the SB Acoustics take being overpowered? IE they are listed at 60w RMS, how much can they take? Is that RMS accurate? Obviously, that would be at long-term listening levels but what will they take at a spike if I decide to say turn it up for a little bit?

Well I finally ordered front stage speakers. I waited simply because the Seas tweeter wasn't in stock. I ordered 2x SB Acoustics SB17NRX2C35-4 which is their 6" paper cone at 4ohm and 2x SEAS Prestige 27TFFNC/G (H1396). I can't wait to get this system done!

The only thing I have to figure out is if I need to run a dedicated RCA setup from the front to the rear for the subwoofer channel or if I can just feed front/rear into the D-4.800 and then use the DSP to feed the LC-1.1500.

Do you think with the setup outlined above (SB17 4ohm paper cone, Seas tweeters, the 4x 6.5" woofers, Audio Control amps along with sound deadening --I'll be doing the front doors and rear cab wall now at the time of install), it's a well-balanced setup? Anything you'd change? The D-4.800 will...

It's crazy that a high quality speaker can be had for the price when you go active vs passive, meaning that once you take the cost of the passive crossover out you can really get better components for the same money as well as mix-and-match the best of multiple brands. The one thing I have to...

What cone would you recommend on the SB17? They have paper, poly, aluminum, ceramic, carbon fiber etc. The Peerless, Massive, and Seas tweeter all look like they'd fit into the OEM tweeter location which would be ideal in my opinion but I am not opposed to putting them in the door. As of now...

Hello, I am looking for advice on my 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD crew cab. As of now the only parts of the system purchased are the head unit (Pioneer DEH-8800BHS) and subwoofers (4x Savard Hi-Q 6.5" dual 4ohm). The plan for the system is to use an Audio Control D-4.800 for the front...
