OK, so I've been doing more research, and planning... Right now, I'm pretty set on the Pioneer AVH-4200NEX Head Unit. Planning my wiring diagram, it seems like I'll be able to run one set of RCAs from the head unit through the PAR 245, then through the DEQ-230 into the first PC4100. I can run...

That's eye opening! Thanks. Ive pretty much been planning on using a newer double din head unit anyway. It'll be mounted in a new custom built center console, so it can really be any size… I'm a little bummed to not use the 30 band eq, just because I never got to actually use it when I bought...

Anybody have any suggestions? Do I keep my current front speakers? Or get new ones? Use multiples? What about subwoofers? I was starting to get set on IDQ 12v4, but a local shop said that v2 was probably their best sounding woofer, but tried to steer me toward JL 12W3. Sent from my SM-N900T...

Hi everybody. I’ve got an old 1967 Ford E-100 Econoline Pickup Truck that I use as my daily drier, and I’m getting a little tire of not having a decent stereo in it. I used to be in the Mobile Audio scene, but it’s been at least 10 years. Luckily I’m a pack-rat, and have been holding on to...

Logistically, yes. According to the specs in the link, the amplifier would be rated as below. I don't have any experience with those actual electronics, so I don't know how the whole thing will sound, but if everything stated is accurate, the following demonstrates how it should turn out...

It's been a while since I really messed with this stuff, but I'm starting back up a bit I guess... Since nobody else has chimed in, I'll take a stab at it. Short answer, YES. Use a new head unit, hook up the stock speakers to the speaker outputs, and use the RCA output to run the external amp...

I always just use a battery. Usually a 9v battery, but a AA battery should work (just harder to see/feel). Like everybody else said, doesn't matter + and -, as long as they are all the same. Touch one speaker lead to the + end of the battery, and the other lead to the - end of the battery...

Thanks, I'm going to move this to another forum section, though. I think this section is for finished installs...

It's funny that you mention Installer Institute, since I'm wearing their shirt right now, which is strange, because I generally only wear my own company shirts (must be laundry day). Anyway, like you, I did all my friends' installs in High School, and thought that's what I really wanted to do...

Here's a pic of the front of the PAR-650.: And a pic of the exterior of the truck:
