Thanks. I got a bimmer (CPO only). From what i've learned here, i guess i'd love both Sound Quality and Bass.... Dont really know what i should get and how much would it be though.

Are you trying to go for good sound quality, loudness, or high spl numbers for competition?

Don't worry, you don't want SQ. If you did, you would know. You probably just want a decent sounding daily system. You will need...

Head unit -
Speakers(Comp set, or plain coaxils) -
Speaker amp -
Sub -
Sub amp -
Processor/EQ(probably will not need) -

Add a max budget to the items and we can recommend some things. Otherwise you will have a list of every item available for sale.
