NEWBIE with 08 DC

[johnymoo]

Hello all and thanks for the info received to date from lurking around!
I have had the 08 DC for a few weeks and love it (except the weak non-JBL stereo). As a first step in fixing the weak sound, I picked-up JL Audio 6.5 component speakers for the front and 6.5 (2 way) for the rear.....along with an Alpine PDX 4.150 to power the new speakers. A must for me at the moment is to keep the factory head unit. The future may bring a Nav system and subs but the speakers and amps is the budget begining.

I ordered speaker adapters and would like to get all pieces in place before I start the install.

What is the best Line Out Converter for this job? Looking for any and all advice I can get to get the job done as perfectly as possible and keep as close to the exact stock look as possible.

THANKS

Welcome to the site! The DC has better options for sub woofers for sure so good choice on the model!
