Speaker recommendation

[audiobaun 5,000+ posts]

It’s a single cab and I got a great mechanic who became a friend. Got the shocks and control arm and bunch of other stuff replaced. to me it feels like a new truck now I just got to get it painted when the weather gets cooler.

I think I am looking for a new amp to run with the kappas. i am looking on crutchfield now to see what kind of 4 channel amps I can get. Seems they are commonly 50w and 75w and then 100w. Do the power stack up ? Like the hu that I have is 27w rms, does that add together with for example the 75w map to make 102w ? Or it does not work like that and just based on the power of the amp if I am running the speakers to an amp.

Just by the amplifier and the signal of 4v your unit has x6chs=(Front RCAs, Rear RCAs,and Subwoofer RCAs runs through the RCAs of Left and Right Channels) to that amplifier. RMS power from amplifier

I put a system in a single cab truck like yours for a friends Son a while back but it was a GMC/same truck.. Those trucks will run for over 300k 5.3 vortec engines. They had a 6.0 GMC that one Co. vehicle was @417k 2002 model ran for I know 4 years longer until it was totaled out by a Semi. Reg oil changes and plugs, tires,shocks two water pumps one fuel pump, belts

For a single cab Id run a 2 ch up front on components and a single mono block for a sub. i would only run a 4 ch if i were going to run active front stage in there or a set of components and a set of mids in the kick panels,and still a dedicated mon amp for any sub.

I've got a set of some 4" JL's getting 80w each in the C pillars, (6" behind my head), and they sound louder than my components, and are definitely loud enough to cause hearing damage. I think I need to realize most people don't actually want that.

Check out sonicelectronix and crutchfield. Also ask around at DIYMA as well as they are a really busy forum also. Lots of used good sometimes NIB 4 channel amplifiers and monoblocks come up there cheap all the time and usually it is really quality stuff. Same with component speakers and what not.
