Hello everybody. I am new here on SMD and would like to thank everyone here for all of the great info. I am starting a new build and would like to see what you think. This is what I have decided on so far.

Vehicle- 1999 Chevy Tahoe 4-door

HU- Pioneer DEH-80PRS (already have)

Fronts- Focal 165 A3 3-way components

Rears- Focal 165 CVX

Sub- SSA XCON-15 D2

Amps- Sundown SAX-100.4D

Sundown SAZ-1500D V.2

Also will be using Second Skin Damplifier throughout truck.

I am shooting for more of an SQ build but has some good SPL. Hoping that these are some good choices. This will be my first official build. I have had a few stereos in the past but nothing this good.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts you might have.

Looks like you have a good start to me. Remember to take lots of pictures and post a build log. People on this forum love pictures

Welcome to SMD Sir ...

I would suggest that your tweeters be half up on your A-Pillars (aiming towards behind your rear view mirror) to start off your stage and image ...

Thanks for the advice.....everyone !

Will put the tweeters on the pillars. And, I will be taking alot of pics. This build will take me awhile because of limited funds ( I have a 17 year old daughter...lol). Hopefully will be able to peice it all together within 3 to 4 months.......pics will be coming soon :)

You have plans on building your electrical up before you start adding amps ?? (at least one extra battery in the rear near the amps ??
