[QUOTE="jef023, post: 8347373, member: 664488"] Hello! I will be the first to admit that I don't know much about audio but the very basis. I've installed many sound systems in my car always thought they sounded good enough. I am now starting a bigger project. I would like to install a very powerful sound system 125+db on my truck. This is mostly for outdoor application. Most people advised me to go with 4 or 6 powered speakers and install an inverter with a big enough battery bank. I'm sure that will sound great but not so sure about how long the batteries will last in this setup. Plus it's likely the inverter will create noise. Another setup would be to use some pa/dj speakers (15") and power them with a couple of car amplifiers. This setup can be powered by some specific batteries that last a long time. My last option is to install at least 12 6x9 full range speakers, some subwoofers and tweeters and a couple of amps to power it all using the same batteries mentioned before. My question to the forum is could someone advise me on the best possible solution for a loud system that can reach a great distance. I thank you in advance! I plan on making a special cage on top of my truck so space is not an issue. Jean [/QUOTE]
