Just upgrade what you have one piece at a time to higher quality unit.

I mean.... it all works together. Not sure what you want us to say. Yeah, there's higher end stuff out there, but if you had the money to pay for it I doubt you'd be running what you are.

Not that anything you have is utter crap. It's just big box middle of the road stuff.

Interesting subs. Triple voice coils? First I've heard of that.

I guess from what I have , what would be my best bang for my buck upgrade ? I went to 5his setup from 2 kicker comps in a premade . A kicker 600 wt amp and , a nakamichi deck. Alpine type s comps in the doors . So I know how much better another rung in the audio chain can be. If I'm going to level up one piece at a time , what's my next best move ? I have some experience in home audio . I have heard some of the best systems made like the Infinity IRSV betta's . Car audio... I'm just kinda guessing . I know this forum seems to have a wealth of very knowledgeable individuals. I guess basically I'd like to know if this was your setup , what would you upgrade first?

Side note..

This is all in a 2000 silverado 3 door.

Thanks

It's a good solid system. If you like it, keep it as is.

If anything start thinking about a bigger alternator and more batteries so you can run more power and have more bass.

Looks pretty good so far. I know how it is, you have a goal and then you meet it and you goal changes. What do you feel it is lacking? If you want it louder is one direction, or maybe staging and imaging are next? At some point you might choose SPL over everything else or that sound quality has priority. I have seen the Zapco DSP but it is expensive. I am stuck in the middle somewhere (loud and clean) as are most people. The ultimate goal is of course the highest SQ system that is also the higest SPL system but nobody has seen that yet.

By the way i love that sub amp. I used to have one until it started making a funny noise.

take out the cap and get a second battery.... everything looks solid

[Cwallaker]

I know I need a bigger alt . I'm listening to ritz crown royal and it drag my volts to around 10 when the bass hits . My volt meter looks like a vu gauge lol. If I had to nit pick , it would be my mids and highs . On some stuff they are amazing IMO. for example pink floyd . They can get a bit harsh with Metallica ect . So far the worst song for sound awol nation , sail . Could be the fact that most of my music is streaming or dl from Google play and , I'm using bt.

Pretty solid set up IMO. prepping speaker install should be way high up on your list for best performance. Deadening, deadening and more deadening. Solid with minimal rattles and vibrations to get the best SQ from what your installing.
