I have a 1976 BMW 2002 and I am building my system. I have Nakamichi CD500 deck. In the doors I plan on 6.5 2 way components and 6x9s in the rear deck. My question is can I do this and get good sound from the deck only? If not, can I add a 4 channel amp and drive the speakers and get nice bass response? I dont need it to be be a thumping system, just really nice balanced sound. I do have room for a 8" sub in the rear deck and I can get a 5 channel amp and drive it all, but its really much more than I want to do for the car. I did this same system in my Carrera. Audison LRX6.9 amp, Focal separates front and rear and JL audio sub. Amazing system but parts alone cost me $3k...not looking to spend that much at all. If I can get by with head unit only awesome. Ideas? Opinions? Also what brands? I am looking at Boston Acoustics and MB Quart for speakers and if I must Nakamichi amp....
