That is the truth! This will be expensive and filled with lots trial and error. If my lessons learned can benefit anyone, I think a good starting point is Biketronics with some Hertz Speakers. I also have an Elf 2 channel amp. This matched up nicely with my Sony HU. I might put some speakers in my lowers this winter. Of course that means I need to upgrade my amp. And while I'm at it... See what I mean?

The "BigDumbNoIt All" is a lot smarter than he lets on ... He has a great analogy on the "HP vs Decibles" ...
