Talking Audio/Headers???

I have a 97 ram infinity system with a pioneer radio. I was going down the road with the music on(not loud) and my speakers started to make a crackling noise(no music) for about 3 seconds then just cut off and my radio turned off. I turned it back on and the radio will say its playin but no sound what so ever will come on. I have sony xplods in the back that i replaced about a month. I know the basics with audio. Do I need to rewire my truck? replace the radio?

Also I want to put headers on my truck but dont know what kind for what i want and wont break my wallet. I have a 97 ram with a 5.9 magnum. I want something thats loud. Any ideas?

Headers are going to set you back 400. Audio 500.

well i got lucky and bought pacesetter longtubes for 150 cerimic coating hehe ,butthe labor to put them on was 600 :/ butif you got shorties and do them yourself cause they will hook right up,long tubes you need the whole lot done like me

i had a 1600 sound system in my last car, and i wouldnt do audio again it was awesome at the time , but it got old really quick , so i would say headers for sure

althoguh i unhooked my rear speakers and put 6x9 boxes in behind my seats they sound way better so i have (4) 6x9 all round

not sure which ones but they fit on the doors I believe. my truck had the infinity system factory too and I took the stock deck out and put a nice Pioneer 7800 in there, very minute sound from the rear speakers and only getting sound from the tweeters up front. I used a wire adapter to the stock harness.

They don't make headers with stereos in them.
