upgrading truck sound system

[Lschevy 3]

I have a 09 silverado crew cab with factory radio and speakers. I don't know if i want to put a box under the rear seats or not but I do want some nice sound and clarity.. what are my options for good mids and highs? As for my budget i don't really have one but I don't want to spend a fortune

No box and bass is tough. Midbass response in the doors is pretty good in Silverado's so a monster 3 way front stage could get you 90% there

what 3 way speakers would you suggest for under $250. I thought about putting four 8" subs under the rear seat

Going to need more than $250 to do a 3 way.  Amplifier channels and processing will more than eat that up.

 

4 8's will need a box....

 

A single 12" ported would do you better btw.

i can cough up more...i was just saying $250 just for the speakers. what do you suggest for under  $1000 not including a headunit

What processing do you have or is that part of the dough?

How much fab are you doing or is part of your budget for that as well?

Are you truly going subless?

...and so on.

OP, you're in good hands with M5. but you need to answer all those questions.

 

It could be easier to run 1 or 2 subs and a simple set of comps in the doors. You may need only one 4 channel amplifier, if you don't want too much power.

I guess I misunderstood your request. From all your threads it looked to me like you were trying to build something that sounds good without a sub. Now you are talking about stuffing 2 12's where they WON'T fit without some fab, but you aren't doing any fab.

If you want a Silvy to sound good you need to do some fab work. If you want it to sound good without a sub you need to do a fair amount. Paying someone to do it would eat your whole budget. Stepping it down a notch can be done, but you are so all over the place it is impossible to tell.

$1k max, but you'll spend $850 on h/u. No subs, but then $900 budget for subs. Obviously what I thought you were trying to do I don't know and am not sure you do either. Really hard to help you with all the variables and no details on what you need to accomplish. In stock form the Silverado is a bomb that swallows gear. Deadened and setup they turn out rather nice, staging is tough but nothing that some kicks can't resolve.

I didn't realize i had two similar threads about the same thing., but to clear everything up. i want to keep it under $850-$900 but I can push it to $1k if it week be a significant difference for the speakers, subs and amp for the component speakers. Now that I think about it 12's will be to big. So i guess it had to be 8's or 10's. the reason went i dint want to fab anything because i dont really have the time and I want to get evening done at once. As far as what I want...i want a clean sounding system with some bump
