So my audio in my 02 is just not cutting it. I bought the truck used and the old owner I believe put in Sony speakers and thats it and its just blah to me. With that I think its time to do a upgrade. I listen to all kinds of music and like to have it sound crisp and mellow, but then sometimes I like to have the bass knocking. I am no audio expert at all, more so a noob. My old car I went with crutchfield and had them help me and I was happy. So I talked to their chat today and they gave me some recommendations. I will list what they recommend below:
Speakers: Polk Audio DXi691 and Polk Audio DXi651's
Kicker DSC35 for dash speakers
Wiring Kit: T-Spec V10-DAK4
What I currently own: Infinity Reference 475a 4 channel 75 watts RMS x 4 Amp
Alpine MRP-M450 Mono subwoofer amp 400 watts RMS x 1 at 2 OHMS
Subwoofer: Looking at getting JL Audio stealh box 10" w3
Headunit- Not sure
Now I was planning on using the Infinity amp for door speakers, headunit would power dash speakers. Alpine will operate subwoofer.
Questions:
1. Does this sound like a good system?
2. Good wiring kit?
3. Saw on crutchfield speaker baffles, do I need?
4. Crutchfield says I have to redrill mounting spots, do I need to do any after prep to metal to prevent rust?
5. Headunit recommendations? I was thinking a double din, I don't really need all the fancy stuff a $1k one provides, but want some good features.
Thanks guys!
