[QUOTE="tooshort_128, post: 8599147, member: 576847"] Recently bought a new 2017 F-150 last month and have been with the stock stereo for too long already. I'm trying to plan for a new setup geared more toward SQ. I'd' now rather have a nice sounding system than something everyone can hear from a few blocks away.....I'm done with that. I'm going to try the active route for the first time and here's what I have planned so far for a budget build: Headunit: Stock Sync 3 system (since it incorporates all kinds of factory functions) Front mids:Crescendo PWX6's in stock location Front highs: Crescendo STS-1's on axis in sail panel instead of stock location in the pillar Rear fill: stock speakers Substage: 2 10" Sundown E-10's ported DSP: RF DSR1 (since I found that it can work as a standalone dsp and Maestro is not needed) Mid/High Amp: PPI 900.4 or NVX 800.4 Sub Amp: PPI P1000.1 or NVX 1200.1 I'm thinking about looking for some cheaper tweets that will blend with the PWX's and also wondering if I would benefit much from bridging the 900.4 for the mids and adding a small 50rmsX2 amp for the tweets or just run all four channels from the 900.4. What do you guys think? Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
