I am planning on upgrading the sound in my truck. The stereo is fine. Just need to add a bit of oomph…
plan:
one 4-channel amp
one pair of 4″ speakers (2-way?) – for front under dash
one pair of 6″x9″ speakers (3-way? 2-way?) – for rear, in speaker boxes
Debating whether I’m further ahead to figure out what I want and order it online, then have someone install it (who? I’d like a pro who isn’t going to f*ck up the electrical system) or get the whole shebang from Best Buy/Circuit City/Ultimate Electronics and have them install it. Stopped at the new Best Buy in Oakdale … nice place, but the sales people are still the same old Best Buy peeps that you have to drag over to the display and ask questions of. Their display was tuned such that they assumed you would get a subwoofer for your setup, so I don’t know how good the base was in the setup I pick’d (Pioneer 4″ [TS-G1040R], Sony 6×9 [XS-V6941H I think], Alpine Amp? [MRP-F240 I think]). I think I will pay a visit to Circuit City, since they’ve always worked well with me in the past.
Oh … vehicle is a 1994 Toyota 4Runner.
