Awesome stuff guys...THANKS! I'll read up...

Makes total sense. I have a decent fluke meter. I will try this. I THINK that head unit is 4V but I am not sure. I will look it up. Thanks for this. Big help. Still not sure I understand the crossover and the HP/LP filters and what they actually do. Never really set up a system and the manual...

Guys, Pretty much a greenhorn here, but I have 2 systems I would like to try and tune a bit. Is there anything out there on the basics of setting crossovers, filters and gains on an amp and what to use or not use on a head unit? Neither by any means are competition systems etc... but are fine...

thanks for all the suggestions guys. I really appreciate it! I will check these out

Yeah but I'm not willing to put more money into a stereo system than a truck is worth. It's 20 years old... it's old... she's absolutely starting to show her age

Not sure I understand your post? Unimpressed with the JL 10? Yeah I guess if you're a guy putting competition stereo systems together but I'm just someone who wants to have a little bass driving back and forth to work. I'm 50 years old... my days of cranking music to disturbing levels are long...

This? https://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_39835_JL-Audio-10-W0v3-10W0v3-4.html I think I remember why I liked it for what it was. You really can't find a bad review on this little 10 inch

Is that most likely what was in this originally based on the photo you see in the link I posted above? I don't need to get crazy I just need it to have a little bit of punch again. By the way do you know anything about the amp? What kind of power was I most likely putting to it using that amp to...

I do...

Honestly I couldn't remember. Thankfully I'm a paper work horder. The box was made by JL. It was a series of boxes they made for all different Vehicles back in the late nineties called stealthbox and it appears it is non ported. https://www.dropbox.com/s/sc5biwap9ram0pi/20170422_234837.jpg?dl=0

also remember in the two doors of that year a full size spare was mounted in the back behind the back seat. With the backseat up you have like a 3-foot by 3-foot cargo space that's it. It's a cracker box back there.

thanks, but my budget is just to buy another 10 inch and slap it in the aftermarket center counsel. I'm not redoing the whole system. the truck is too old and I drive 5 miles to work.... I'm in a cargo van most of the day

Hey guys I'm looking for some quick advice. I have a 99 2 door Tahoe that I bought new back in 99. It's only got 105 K on the odometer so I'm going to keep her around for a while. When I bought it I took it right over to a place by my old place of work that's long gone and had a system put in...

So this is not car related but I have been to the site before for car stuff and you guys were a big help! I have a 3000 foot outbuilding with a 15' tall ceiling and I am sick of not having decent tunes out there. I have the following laying around and figured maybe I can toss something together...

Just installed the 690 myself.(same deck but the Premier) I love the navigation and the remote! After reading the above from Keymaster, I'm even more stoked to mess with it. Since this is just a muscle car, I don't plan on putting a ext. hard drive in the car. I just liked the Ipod and/or thumb...
