[QUOTE="txjeep, post: 8854193, member: 689578"] 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: Head unit - Kenwood Excelon KMM-X503 6 RCA Out - 6 Channel Preamp outputs 4 Speaker level outputs Front Dash Speakers - 2x Polk Audio DB 522 5.25 inch 2-way 100 watts RMS Frequency range 55-22,000 Hz Sensitivity 91 dB Mounted behind cutouts in metal dash with Speaker Baffles Front Floor Speakers - 2x Polk Audio MM 522 5.25 inch 2-way 80 watts RMS Frequency range 50-40,000 Hz Sensitivity 92 dB Mounted in Select Increments Centra-Pod Behind Seat Speakers - 2x Polk Audio MM 692 6x9 inch 3-way 150 watts RMS Frequency range 30-40,000 Hz Sensitivity 94 dB Mounted in ABS housings against bulkhead Subwoofer - 1x Polk Audio DB 842 SVC 8 inch 4-ohm 250 watts RMS Frequency Response 30-200 Hz Sensitivity 84 dB Mounted in Select Increments Intra-Pod Center Console Amplifier - Kicker 42PXA5001 250 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms Frequency Response 25-120 Hz Switchable low-pass filter (60, 80, 100 or 120Hz at 24 dB / octave) KickEQ Bass Boost (Selectable 0dB or +6dB centered at 40 Hz Fixed subsonic filter (25 Hz, 24 dB / octave) Fuse 40A x 1 Mounted in Select Increments Intra-Pod Center Console bottom cavity [/QUOTE]
