    Need some help deciding what to get

    According to the site, It doesn't fit the truck. I'm gonna assume it's because of the tweeter size vs the factory hole?

    Need some help deciding what to get

    I'm looking to do a modest system more oriented in sq. I'm looking for a set of 6.5 components that will be powered by an old school jl 300/4. I want something different as far as brand. Not the mainstream Rockford, kicker, alpine etc. I wanted to try a 3 way but speaker placement for the mid...

    Ohhh I'm about to RANT..

    Funny you say that. Before I left I was asking about what door speakers should I got with? 6x8(factory) or 6.5 components? He shows me a Comando 6.5 speaker. Not a pair but a single speaker in one box. So I ask about a tweeter and he then pulls out a 3 or 4 inch speakers and said this will make...

    Ohhh I'm about to RANT..

    10W7 under the seat of a truck?

    Has anyone ever put a 10 w7 under the seat of a F150? Is it even possible? I have 2 that's sitting in a closet and been there for YEARS. I'd love to get a box built to spec and use them but idk if it's been done before and I can't seem to find any pics or videos. Ive seen 8w7's but never a 10. I...

    Which one would you do?

    I have 2 older gen alpine type r 10's (dual 4 ohm) and a JL 1000/1 and a DDmc1. Which amp would you use? I think they are going to be sealed in a F150 but if i can get a ported box under the seat, id go that route. I don't think I'd have an issue mounting the DD but the jl may be an issue due...

    DAMMIT I KNEW THIS WAS GONNA HAPPEN

    As the title says, I knew this was gonna happen. So I'm and old man now and been out of car audio for a few yrs. Haven't had the drive, desire or the vehicle for the hobby anymore. Well, now I've taken over my father's 06 F150 supercrew because he's no longer able to drive. And what's the first...

    What cars have you had? What equipment or systems in them?

    Have had too many cars and way too much equipment to list but I think my absolute favorite setup was in a 95 Honda odyssey I had. Head unit was the clarion 9575rz with the 12 disc changer I believe and the dsp processor. Front doors were the Boston acoustic 6.5 pro component(not the 3 way set...

    Featured Remember when HU were so rad

    Anyone remember the clarion drx9575rz? Had that along with the signal processor. I REALLY missed that radio. Sold it when I got my first pop out screen.
