Very nice. Please document and post your install as it comes along. Once I have the free time, I'll be installing some Hertz Mille Pros components in my front doors, Mille coax in the rear doors, a JL Audio 13tw5v2 in a custom box behind the rear seat, a JL HD900/5 to power everything and a Rockford Fosgate DSR-1 to link everything up. Should be a fun system once it's done.

Somewhat on-topic, and appreciate advice from guys who are way more up on this than me:
Wanting to upgrade my Sony system and am not looking to put in top-line $$$ speakers, but am not adverse to decent quality ones. Had Infinity Kappas in my previous truck, but that was with the OEM amps etc. This time, I am planning to tap the audio lines with some sort of DSR processor and get them fed to an amp. Here is my Q: I am looking at JL C2's for the doors and also the Hertz Energy line. How does these compare? Sensitivity on the Hertz units seems to be better, but otherwise I have not heard either one yet in person to judge. I listen to a range of music, from Jazz to Rock to Country. Any insights are appreciated - thanks.
