Daniel Wright New member Username: Daniel07 Post Number: 1 Registered: Dec-05	Posted on Monday, December 26, 2005 - 05:48 GMT I am new to Car Audio.... Give me the 101 I know basically nothing and want to know alot... i am willing to discuss and learn anything yall have to offer... I am looking to start picking up my new system this comming weekend. I will need to know what to look for, for a low price. I am not looking for competition sound just enough to make people jealous or wowed. Below is what i have to work with... I do not really have anything but a few smaller speakers so far, will need advice on what all to get that will fit. - '93 Chevy Single Cab - Prestige stereo (not the best stereos) - no amp - no subs - 2(4x6) 2(6x9) just running from CD player - Low money If you have any sugggestions let me know them. I also would like the 101 on the Lingo. Thanks and Let me know... Daniel
