I need help setting up my system
I'm upgrading all the audio in my 2008 ford F-150 crewcab and I dont know what type of amp to get, I'm keeping the stock radio, I'm replacing the speakers with four 6×8 kenwood speakers with 360watts peak and 80 watts rms and they are 4ohm. I dont want to underpower my speakers, so can you please tell me what type of amp will get them to there full potential
Re: I need help setting up my system
what kind of budget do you have? where did you want to mount the amp?
Re: I need help setting up my system
Pioneer D8704 and D9701 are very good. Rockford Fosgate Power series with constant power.
Re: I need help setting up my system
There is a new Kenwood XR400-4 power amp in the classifieds for $150 Shipped. This is a good deal on a very good amplifier and is IMO perfect for your needs.

Re: I need help setting up my system
I have an 05 crew cab myself. The factory radio was not in my truck when I bought it, however I am pretty sure the don't provide a line level output.
Do you have a line out converter? If not you will need one with that Kenwood. Having said that it should meet your needs very well.

Well i need something around a $150 budget, and I want something new from amazon or something so if something is wrong I can ship it back.

With a budget of $150, Pioneer GM-D8704 offers the best value.
If buying from Amazon, it may be a good idea to buy from an authorised Pioneer reseller.

I found this and it has the exact same rms, dosnt show max power though, will this work?
Re: I need help setting up my system
No. You don’t want to mess with CT Sounds, and you don’t want to care about max power. The Pioneer GM-D8704 is going to be your best bet in this situation, and when dealing with car audio, you should only be concerned with rms.

If max power dosnt matter than what about this one, its kenwood so it good quality and it will match the speakers and look nicer.

Lol, I just realized how threads work
Re: I need help setting up my system
I never understood why people come new to a forum, ask questions, and not listen to any advice from the people with the experience they were asking.

I’ll stick with the Pioneer recommendation, but it’s your money, brother.
