[QUOTE="ajb1205, post: 8627331, member: 671200"] After a ton of research and listening to sound boards, and bugging the hell out of the local stereo shops, I ended up installing Helix E series 6.5" comps up front and then the matching 6.5" coaxials in the rear doors. I also installed hushmat on and in each door...and am looking at finding some 1/4" abs plastic to block off the large access holes in each door. Running off just stock deck power these speakers sound amazing compared to the stock speakers...almost good enough that I am considering not amplifying them (but seriously when my tax return comes in, I will be grabbing an Audison AP8.9 [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] ). Purchased a Knukoncepts 4amp Kolosus amp kit to run the JL JX500/1D and the 10" JL 10tw3. It sounds good...really good...but my inside voice keeps telling me it could be better. Next step is to purchase a bit more hushmat for the rear wall of the truck, plastic sheet to cover the large door openings, 3 runs of speedwire (8 inputs, 12 outputs as I will be running the fronts full active), and, of course, the Audison 8.9. I will update as I go. [/QUOTE]
