New member Username: PelestumonoWaynesboro, Va USA Post Number: 1 Registered: Jul-04 | I have a 99 4Runner. I think I can fit 6.5-6.75 in the front and maybe 5.25 in the back(i have read differing things about that). I have been looking at doing an all Pioneer Premier system, with components in the doors and either 10 or 12 in subs in the back with two PRS-X340s pushing it all. I am open to any suggestions. My budget is in the 700-900 dollar neighborhood, I am gonna stick with the stock head unit for now. Thanks |

New member Username: PelestumonoWaynesboro, Va USA Post Number: 2 Registered: Jul-04 | After reading around a little bit, maybe I should just get really good components in the front, like utopias, and a 2 channel amp. Then maybe hold off on the rest, until I have more money. Am I really gonna get anything out of the rear door speakers because of their location and size? |

Silver Member Username: MattlBolingbrook, Illinois USA Post Number: 254 Registered: Jun-04 | If you're looking for a system based on sound quality, then having quality components up front is far more important than having anything (at all) in the rear. Utopias are probably overdoing it on your first time out and that budget, since they'll easily run half of that. If you're not in a big rush, check out some of the deals going at Elemental Designs (http://www.edesignaudio.com). They are running a 60% preorder sale on their upcoming goods, which are very good quality for the money. Otherwise, off the cuff: * Infinity Kappa Perfect 6.1 ($225) * Hifonics Zeus ZX6000 ($200) for the Perfects * Hifonics Zeus ZX4000 ($130) for one SVC sub * Sub of your choice/preference/size that either meets 400W@4ohms or two 200W@2ohm. -Matt |

Silver Member Username: MattlBolingbrook, Illinois USA Post Number: 264 Registered: Jun-04 | It totally depends on how much you want to spend, whether you want quality or pure thump, and whether you have an enclosure in mind. To be perfectly honest, eD's Combo #4 would be perfect for you ($550). You could then spend the rest of your budget on an enclosure and install/wiring and be done with a beautiful setup. -Matt |

Silver Member Username: MattlBolingbrook, Illinois USA Post Number: 265 Registered: Jun-04 | Those 6500s are competition-quality SQ speakers. They use silk dome tweeters, and CDT's competition crossovers (which go for $200 a pair). The midranges are still a bit of a mystery, but having heard their current line, I can say the new ones will be at least on-par with the Perfects (which I own). -Matt |
