Kevin,

I have a '48 Chevy pickup. MSD ignition, fuse box, and battery is going into pedestal under bench seat. Dashboard and trim are stock. I don't want a radio or head unit visible. BUT, I want to be able to control Pandora, volume control, and have handsfree phone features (just like my late model Ford truck). I have rear cab corner provisions for 6x9" speakers. I can locate a sub under the seat OR behind it, but I don't want to totally occupy the back of my seat area with components (need a place for jackets, etc.). I'd like front speakers as well, but not in doors. Basically, I'd like a 5 channel setup for the truck, unless you have a reason to believe its a waste of $$.

I like quality components, so no issue there. Your thoughts on head unit, speakers, amp(s) and placement of everything?
