[QUOTE="MadMalibu, post: 5357009, member: 605291"] Hey guys, I have been out of the car audio game for a long time, and need to put together a system for my old convertible Chevelle. I am limited to a couple 6.5" components in my kick panels (tweeters in the dash), and a sub or two in the trunk. Below is the list of parts I am planning to go with (pending input from guys like you). This car is an old convertible, with loud exhaust. I don't expect "audiophile" quality, but want something with full sound and nice punch that I can hear over the road noise. I want to stay very subtle with the look of the head unit, play MP3 CD's, and try to keep the budget under $1000. Please tell me why my current plans **** [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] Thanks so much!
