Does this Blazer have the door speakers as well? Throw some 6" (if I recall right) components in there, and lub it. Went with that in our '98 Jimmy. Factory had a tweeters in the dash and regular door speakers in front. With out any subs, it's quite awesome for anything that's not showing off. 2 ways really help the rear seats too, stock speakers suck back there.

Can't do anything "permanent" until I pay my parents back.
But, they don't care if I do this stuff. And don't pull the "pay them off before you pay for audio" because, well, my parents aren't making me pay them back for a while Anyway. Once I do, it'll be painted a flat black or flat gunmetal gray, and will be getting a lift (5" maybe?) with some 32"s edit- Oh yeah, getting 5% tint in the rear. Then, possibly 5% on the front windows, if not, then probably about 20% or 30% Still deciding on the windshield. Definitely not doing 5% on that, maybe 25%

Those look like some nice speakers. Looks like a clean install. I like it.

Or, you can use the 4 grand for an LS-swap.

I've some FatMat (cheaper than Dynamat, works almost as good. Will have to double layer a bit of it) and I'm not getting crossovers simply for the fact that I'm getting P500-4 4channel amp soon, and I won't need crossovers when using that.
I'm using so much RF because I'm the type of person that likes to keep one brand throughout stuff. Except their subs are ****, so I'm using Fi, which is one of the 'better' quality subs on the market.

I've been loving Soundstream for a while. Their mids/highs are comparable to Alpine type-R except they're cheaper. I've got fatmat all in my blazer, too. The setup that i ran is going for EQ more than bass, I mean, my woofer is an 8" Kicker CVR, lol. Good work so far, can't wait to see some DB.

EQ? I think you mean SQ.
In car audio there are 3 "classes." SQ = Sound Quality SPL = Sound Pressure Level And Daily Driver, which is a mix of the two, usually leaning more towards SQ. I'd say mine will be pretty much right now the middle, for now. But when I get the 18" SSD, it will be a little more to the SPL side. Also, yeah, I like Soundstream a little, but there's definitely better stuff for the price, even though they are relatively cheap to begin with
