[QUOTE="woody70, post: 8464559, member: 668401"] Gentlemen, thanks for the input. We decided to go semi-budget. Got him a Pioneer 2800 double din HU. I'm thinking the 80PRS would have been a little overwhelming for him to tune. The 2800 has an auto eq that can get him in the ballpark and then do a little fine tuning from there. I know the 80PRS has auto tuning features but it would have a little much for him with seperate L/R. Going to sound deaden the doors with some b stock from second skin and put HSK 165.4 in the doors with a 4 channel amp (rockford, sundown or jl - haven't decided yet). One SA-8 sub with a sundown 1K watt amp. But maybe two sa-8's if we can squeeze the budget somewhere. Disconnect the stock rear speakers and call it a day. This will give him a basic system that he can help install, setup and tune. We'll see how it goes. OMG, I was just proud of him for asking "If you are in the drivers seat, you are way left of the center stage. How do you get the sound centered? And then if you have a passenger how will that affect everything?" Welcome to car audio son, welcome to car audio. [/QUOTE]
