    Stereo advice from some sound guys plz

    Alright, ya thats what i was wondering if you just put the wires together at the amp lug. Thanks for the info. Tomorrow i hope to hook it all up. Hey how did you attach your amp. I dont wanna drill holes in the back of my m1008 behind the seats. Im thinking either velcro or just some straps.

    Stereo advice from some sound guys plz

    how did you tie it into the the power wire?. Also I was testing the circuits in the fusebox and contrary to posts i found in the search: the plug in next to the 5 amp fuse seems to be the only always hot source and it is NOT 12v.

    Stereo advice from some sound guys plz

    oh ok, no I don't have a db meter on hand. Or wait I have an idea. I just bought an iphone app that works as a db meter. It has good review and people state its pretty accurate when I go to work on the truck today and drive it I'll take some readings for you ok?

    Stereo advice from some sound guys plz

    I'm really not quite sure what your are asking. My m1008 is not loud in my opinion. My dodge dakota was louder then it and I could hear the stock radio fine. I'm not putting in such large subs because I'm too lazy to dynamat the entire thing I'm doing for the fun aspect of having some powerful subs.

    Stereo advice from some sound guys plz

    Thanks for all the great info guys. So I think I'm pretty much ready to order everything. I don't need a headset in my truck its pretty quiet compared to most cucvs I've heard. Besides I'm putting in 800w worth of subs for a reason :)

    Stereo advice from some sound guys plz

    lol boy do I feel retarded. Alright guys thanks for the info. looks like I have my list with everything I'll need then. If I were to add some decent mid range speakers where do you think they should go? Just in the doors or?

    Stereo advice from some sound guys plz

    Alright guys thanks for the tips. Here is a link to the head unit I was going to use. I was confused with how it gives power ratings but yet all i see is the RCA jacks. Dual XDMA6415 In-Dash CD, MP3 Receiver with Remote, Built-in (I'm not buying from here just using for item reference) Oh...
