Anyone want to help me out with a system for my Z-71?

[Intercooler 10+ year member]

I have a 1999 Extended cab and the only thing I have done so far is a Pioneer DEH-77 head unit. It is kind of looking like I will be keeping it so I want to get rid of the crappy speakers and pump it up! I may possibly use the temporary Kicker 550.2 out of my Honda in it if I can make it work somehow. I think the truck has 6.5's and a 1" tweeter in the doors. In the rear is 4x6's from what I have been told. Probably best to just leave them out of the mix? What is the best way to get it sounding good with the right imaging?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

What kind of a budget are you looking at for the components?

Can the Boston I believe Z-6's?.... be bought for $600? That is about max for components for me. Then maybe a sub or two and another amp.

The Z6's are an excellent choice...you might be able to afford Dynaudio drivers for that budget //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Any idea where Bostons can be bought on-line reasonable? Last time I was in Tweeter they wanted $1,000 for the Z-6's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

Is Crutchfield's price any better?

Either that or Ebay, if you don't mind going unauthorized...

Look to be the best E-Bay has to offer on Bostons: http://cgi.ebay.com/BOSTON-ACOUSTICS-PRO60-6-5-COMPONENT-SPEAKER-SET-NEW_W0QQitemZ5819860154QQcategoryZ32819QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

The Pro60's are a step down from the Z6's...but they're still good speakers.

I may be picking up a set next week if the Chameleons are too deep for my doors.
