I have a 98 Expedition with the Audiophile system. I have a Sony CDX-C780 head unit that I can hook up.  I also have the equipment to add RCA to my factory stereo, and thought about putting the remote for the Amp, the DVD, the FM modulator, and the Power Inverter on 1 or 2 switches up front.  The reason for leaving the stock unit in is so I can have the 6 disc changer and a tape deck as well.  The reason for the CDX is so I would not have to add the RCA box or a switch for the remote turn on, but I lose the sleeper look of the stock H/U. 

So...Any thoughts or suggestions on a good setup?  I am hooking up a pS2, a monitor, a Memphis 16-st250d, and either a JL 12W6 or a Kappa Perfect 12.1D.

And... Can I use the factory CD changer on the aftermarket dash with the proper wiring harness? (Even though it skips like crazy in the beast!)

 i would add the new head unit  check with crutchfield about the changer with the after market h/u and i would go with the JL over the kappa,.  i would go with a memphis sub if you already have a memphis amp  thats just my thoughts on it
