I just wanted to add that I have about 8 years exp in car audio and soon I
will be getting some exp in truck audio, HA. I am going to put Infinity
Kappa 62i's in the rear and a pair of Kappa 65cs seperates in the front.
I've had a good relationship with Infinity Kappa's. I am putting in a
Kenwood KDC-775 head unit with 10 disc changer, an Alpine 3331 11 band EQ
with sub outs, a Kenwood KAC-646X 4 channel amp, a KAC-921 2 channel amp,
and two Infinity Beta 8" woofers(enclosures built by me). Not a
complicated setup, but should sound extremely good. I got all the stuff
now I just need the truck. Oh another thing you all may already know is
Crutchfield carries all the wiring harnesses, speaker brackets, and kits
for the 97 Dakota. The extra money spent makes for a lot less hassel.
