Okay, so.

Kicker KX1200.1 Amplifier: http://carstereo.pricegrabber.com/search_techspecs_full.php/masterid=600793

Two Alpine Type-R SWR-1242D 12" Subwoofers: http://carstereo.pricegrabber.com/search_techspecs_full.php/masterid=6620348

Pioneer TS-A6970R 6" x 9" 3-Way Speakers: http://carstereo.pricegrabber.com/search_techspecs_full.php/masterid=685371

JVC Arsenal KD-AR560 Head Unit: http://carstereo.pricegrabber.com/search_techspecs_full.php/masterid=5765309




This is going into my 1995 Chevy Silverado Ext. Cab.

Do you guys see anything wrong with that system, before I order it? Head unit is already installed so I can't change that, but the rest is going to be ordered tomorrow.


Any suggestions?

***you may want to look into a High Output Altenator as well as a Optima Yellow Top.

once u get the system test it out and if theres some dimming lights then your gonna probably need them^ HO alt for sure

I would get a better radio, other then JVC, and use a different set of 6x9 use pioneer or alpine deck maybe and use alpine or infinity, examploe for 6x9. nad by the way, the book shows 4x6 speakers for that truck all the way around. Are you putting them in boxes, if so i would mtch the front speakers up to whatever you use.

Would any of you guys choose the Kicker Solo-Baric L5's over the Alpine Type-R's?

<-- Confused on where those Pioneers will go in that truck unless like others mentioned, will they be mounted somewhere different? I've used a set of Pioneer 4 ways but they had no mids, plenty of highs. I'd suggest getting a component setup myself. With the L5s you'll sacrafice all SQ for just SPL so if thats what you want go for it. Those Type Rs are a great choice and get loud as well yet maintain good SQ. I'm pretty sure most stores carry both so just go listen to them yourself and see which you perfer. I'd go with Type Rs though.

I just bought the truck last Saturday, and I'm going to pick it up in Tulsa sometime this week.

Coulda swore they were 6x9s in it, so they are 4x6s?

What would you guys recommend for a replacement for the speakers in it?
