[QUOTE="Juulian, post: 8904585, member: 693901"] I have an 02 Chevy Tahoe and have had the same system since I was 15. A 50 dollar power Acoustik PL-51b 300w 4CH head unit, old hand me down 600w 2 channel amp on the subs and old hand me down 600w 4 channel amp on the doors, Walmart coaxial door speakers, and 200 dollar pawn shop 150w rms kicker comp 12’s. I have some new deaf bonce apocalypse M61SE pro 6.5 midranges on the way for the doors and just bought a taramps smart5bass amp and 2 2500w rms sundown xv3 12’s in a tru spec box. Now my question is should i be worried about my hunk of junk power acoustik head unit not being able to handle the new amp, subs, and door speakers? I don’t plan on upgrading the hand me down 600w 4 channel for the doors because the apocalypse mid ranges are 150w rms so the 600w 4CH amp is just the one I need for them. If I do need to upgrade what suggestions does anyone have for a head unit that compliments my new setup power wise? I don’t care about touchscreen or CarPlay but I have heard a good head unit puts out high voltage and has good EQ systems. Any help is greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
