I think that the golden rule in installing an audio system applies here, especially with such a small cabin space. It largely doesn't matter the budget of the system of the typre of equipment used. It all comes down to the engineering. It certainly is easier to put speakers into the doors under the quarter window, just make sure they are very solidly mounted and as someone said before, try and eliminate the rattes beforehand. But if you are after sound quality and a decent system, then a high powered head unit and some good quality 6.5 inch speakers will suit your application. The next step up from that would be splits and then an amplifier if you wanted. But provided you took the time to kill the rattles and install the system securely, you should be happy with the above arrangement.

Hope this helps you out.

Maybe its not a case of trying to impress everyone. A cheap and very effective 2 channel amp can cost as little as $120 and rather than providing sound that tries to "impress" everyone is clear and sharp.

i have mp3 headunit pinoeer, 6x9 kenwood 3ways in the doors, sound stream component 6inch in the kick panels and a kick amp under the seat

I've only got a kenwood head deck and a set of kenwood 6x9's, seeing that the cab is so small you don't need a big stereo not unless you're one of those people who spends way too much money on stereo equipment, tring to impress everyone.

I've got 5 1/4's in the kickpanels and 6X9s in boxes behind the seats running off the deck. Sounds great but like you guys said... I too am not a car audio freak.

Heya,
I am running a two channel kenwoood amp, a pioneer head deck and kenwood 3 way 6x9's in the doors.

If you take off the door panel, you can see (drivers side) that the bottom left has a section cut out already. Just use tin snips and a file to cut out a section so the 6x9's fit in and away you go.

The doors are quite deep and so a shallow/medium set of 6x9 fit and the sound is excellent.

u can get away with fitting 6 inch two ways behind ur seats, juts gotta make a speaker box that is fairly thin. its a bit baffled but u fade more power to the back and u get real good sound., just make sure if u have drivers seats that slide dont have it completely back or u will dent the front grill like i did haha.

No they don't usually hit because of the quarter vents. This means you have more clearance in the door where the door glass runs down. I got away without using door pods or anything.
I bought a high quality set of 6's and I'm still surprised at the bass they put out. It all sounds nice and crisp and clear.

Make sure you spend a bit of time sound deadening the inside of the door and stop all the rattles etc inside the door before the door trims go back on - you can learn from my mistake cause I didn't think they would be that loud
Anyway I'll get around to it one day..........along with everything else.

yeah not an audio freak either jus need to hear my music over my carbys.the stereo i got now is not the best.

will look at doors thought window would hit on the way down. thanks

I've just got a set of 6 inches in the door skins running off a single head unit - I was actually quite impressed with the sound as its only a small cabin.

Depends what you want - personally I'm not a huge car audio freak, I just wanted some tunes - but as I said I was quite surprised.
