Hey guys, i know this has probably been asked before but what is the best way to go about upgrading my stock system, i want to get the best possible sound with out blowing my budget. im looking to spend around $1000. i already have a touch screen double din headunit that hasnt been installed yet, im looking at getting component speakers, amp, and a sub. also where is the best place to mount all the speakers? im new to all the car audio scene so any help would be greatly appreciated.
cheers GTrain
For speakers just go a set of decent 6.5inch components in the front doors, tweeters in the factory spot are fine. Mount the cross overs next to the amp, and get a decent amp to run them. Don't add anymore speakers, a sub sure but no more speakers are needed.

In a ute on that budget, I'd look for a GOOD set of splits, then a fairly basic sub and amp will be enough to fill the little cabin.
You could probably get a 4ch amp, then run your splits + sub off that to save a few bucks

+ some of the option audio deadener.
Something like that can be done for around the $1000 mark. Will be plenty loud and thats ONLY sound quality centric gear so thats not going to be that boom boom junk you hear on the streets.
Interested? I can work on a proper quote if needed![]()
