Audio System build, looking for opinions

[SubmarinesOnce]

Good evening. I am working on upgrading the speakers of my alpine system.

I see some of you are audio gurus and I value expert opinions.


I already installed these (https://www.crutchfield.com/p_575R165S/Rockford-Fosgate-R165-S.html?tp=105) into the sound bar.

I have the terraflex to put into the dash this weekend.

For the next step, I am looking at the knee pods and adding amps.

I attached a screen shot of what I am thinking for the knee panels and amps. Links here:https://www.crutchfield.com/p_575P1650/Rockford-Fosgate-P1650.html

Am I missing anything? Is this all going to work well together in the jeep? I realize I may end up having extra amp channels

If you are using the stock amp outputs, the signal is weird. Kicks are mid bass, and the dash is almost full range.

If you are going to amp, I’d reprocess the alpine input, or expect the weird xover points when tuning.

Thanks. I am probably going to have someone install the amps. I don’t have good wire management skills.

I can have them use the pre amp inputs probably.

Anyone else have opinions?
Have switched over to looking at the kicker 47key200.4 https://www.crutchfield.com/S-QmM9qkjMxIC/p_20647KEY20/Kicker-47KEY200-4.html

That along with the pac amp pro AP4-CH41https://www.crutchfield.com/p_541AP4CH41/PAC-AmpPRO-AP4-CH41-Aftermarket-Amplifier-Interface.html

Still not sure on which speakers to go for the kick pods.
Also, should I look at 2 amps? Or just the one? Or there other amps out there within the general price range that would be better that still have a DSP?

overall, I am looking for more volume over wind noise with decent quality.

The Amp Pro is a great piece. I went with the full Quart Stage 6. It's pricey but you only have to do it once. The AmpPro is in the kit and everything is prewired.
