Polk Audio db651 6.5" speakers & amp install
Tomorrow I'm taking my truck in to replace all the stock speakers with new Polks. Also adding an audiopipe 4080 amp.
My goal is to get a good improvement in the sound, but without replacing the stock radio and adding a sub which would cost me floor space under the backseat (I think). I'm hoping that I won't miss too much bass with this setup. I'm not big on door rattling bass anyhow, just want a decent sounding system. I'm usually listening to music that was on pop radio in the 1970s - good stuff!
I selected these speakers after hearing them. I found it difficult to find car audio shops that have stereo/ speaker set ups you can actually listen to. Definitely not like it was I the late 1970s and systems are far more complex today.
My last car audio mod was also back in the late 70s, so lots to learn.
Comments / suggestions?

I am told that a line processor makes a big difference when using a factory head unit. I am getting speakers, amp, and a Audio Control LCQ1 this week. A JL Audio Cleansweep also gets good reviews.

Not trying to hijack I'm kinda stuck with the same questions, im adding a focal 1 channel and 4 channel amps. I'm thinking about buying the audio control lc6i converter. Any input would be great.
