[QUOTE="caseyboy43, post: 8169758, member: 657902"] Is there a way to future proof the installation of my system? I have grand plans but strained finances. I have some pieces from a previous build that I was trying not to use but might have to and gradually swap out for what I want. So if I upgrade alternator/battery and big 3 upgrade and use 1/0 gauge wires for amp install as well as sub enclosure and run 8 gauge speaker wire for doors (this alone is around $1,000) - will this allow me to swap out new, higher output equipment at a later date (sorta like plug and play)? I would rather do it right the first time but reality is I cannot justify the expense and I don't believe in "budget" speakers and amps. I don't want my equipment to be disposable - I expect it to be durable and last a very long time. Would never be abused but definitely stretched out from time to time. Appreciate the insight.
