I apologize upfront if this is a stupid set of questions. I do not know much about how all this works.
The vehicle is a 1981 Jeep Scrambler. I would like to get decent audio out of that loud environment with the top up or down.
I decided to add 2 6x9 speakers to the four originally planned and therefore would like advice on the bast way to connect everything. I assume a 2nd amp but what about DSP and channel tuning?
can I make this good for less than an additional $800?
Here is what I have:
