Hello everyone
I am wanting to do a full system in my Jeep 2000 Grand Cherokee but I'm not sure how I should do it. I've installed my fair share of low end head unit's, subs, amps, and speakers for friends and my own car but I'm starting to get into the more advanced part of car audio systems and I'm just not sure what I should do. My budget is $2,500 at the most. I only have a DEH 80-PRS but I will need all new everything. My dad has a small shop so I do have the ability to use a router and a CNC machine and I'm hoping to do everything myself.
What I'm wanting out of this system is just to get a loud, high quality system. I play drums and so personally I'm hoping to get some more mid-bass. It would be awesome to have my car sound and feel like a studio. Oh and I like my music very, very loud.
I'm really just not sure what I should run. I've been interested in getting a Crescendo UN-8" Loudspeaker and I had a 6.5" in my car before and liked it. I've heard of doing 6.5", 8" and tweets but I'm not sure If I want to do a 2 way active or 3 way active front stage. Is it really worth the extra money to try and do a 6.5", 8", and tweets? Or would it be better to just do 8" drivers and tweets? I'm also not sure what size of sub or how many and how many amps or what amps or even where to put the amps. I've also never done any door treatment before but I'm interested in the process.
What are the steps in the process of doing a fully system build? What should I start with doing first?
Thanks
