In my 89 regular cab:
I have a newer Kenwood deck with 6x22w RMS channels. Two of the channels power the dash Alpine Type-S 4x6's.
The remaining 4 channels are devoted to the rear.
I have another pair of the Alpines in the rear factory spots.
Lastly, I have a pair of Alpine Type-R 6x9's that i fabricated wooden mounts for and mounted them to the plastic trim behind the bench seat, below the rear window. I had to cut holes in both the trim the steel behind the trim to allow room for decently comfortable seating (I'm 5'11 so i don't need the seat fully back on its rails). These Are powered by a 2x110w RMS Amp, thus being non-reliant on the receiver, and leaving an unused 44w RMS power to the 4x6's, boosting them to 33w RMS each.
To top it all off, I have a JL Audio 10" powered, sealed truck sub that can handle 350w RMS. It's powered by an Alpine MV500 amp.
Driving down the road,the system gets loud and clear, blocking out all engine noise and the 10" sub isn't overpowering for the small cab, but still delivers solid bass. In scenarios where a bigger sub is needed, the amp can pump 500w RMS to a nice 12" sub .
When the system really shines, however, is when I'm able to park the truck and fold forward the seat with the doors open, letting those 6x9's bellow. It's a perfect party system, able to project clear and loud audio for atleast 50 yards.
