[QUOTE="JTB321, post: 8824971, member: 687636"] Howdy, I’ve just done the noob introduction so now I’ll give some project details and look forward to comments/ suggestions. I’m building a 1950 Ford F1 custom truck and the audio needs some decisions. From the photos you can see the original dash instrumentation has been cut out and will get a carbon fiber dash. As the truck cab is quite small the center console ended up being narrow so choosing a head unit was tricky and I ended up with a Rockford Fosgate PMX-2 marine unit which fit well and looks acceptable. The unit has inbuilt 4*50w amps but that won’t do. For speakers I have room for two full range 6*9’s under the dash and have options under the seats. So, now come the decision on what to do. I can get two more 6*9’s under each seat and/or a powered sub under each seat also. Thoughts on amp speaker choices and whether to go with the additional subs or not? Budget$6-800 for amp and speakers , additional $$ for the subs if I go with them. It will be a cruise/show truck but I need a reasonable sound quality. Generally rock and country music gets airplay along with FM. Cheers, look forward to feedback, good or bad 😊👍 [/QUOTE]
