[QUOTE="blazian87, post: 8397057, member: 574798"] So it seems like you have most of the equipment already, just need good speakers. BTW having more power than what your sub can handle is a good thing. It's called headroom. Just set your gains to what your sub is rated for and you probably won't need to upgrade alt/batt. For a truck, I would just ditch the rear speakers and focus on fronts. Get a quality component set and use your RF amp 4 channel. Going active will be louder and clearer but takes more time to get right. Does your RF amp have adjustable crossovers? If it does not, you might have to end up just going passive. Everyone says the SQ pro 6.5's mids and tweets are pretty **** loud so it might work out in your noisy truck. You're gonna need to sound deaden the doors to produce good midbass and clean up the overall sound. Add sound deadener to anything that rattles. You will increase SPL and you can actually hear the music better. Don't turn up any bass boost or loudness features on, it will clip like crazy. [/QUOTE]
