Hello, I have decided to upgrade my car's sound system and was looking for other opinions.
The only thing I have done audio related in a car was installing an alpine deck. Other than that I have no knowledge or experience so any advice would be appreciated. I have a base 2004 350z with stock head unit and speakers (I am really disappointed with the quality of the speakers). After reading a little and looking around, here is what I came up with following a $2,000 budget.
Head Unit - Kenwood DDX514
Subwoofer - JL 12W6V2
Subwoofer Enclosure - Custom box from concept enclosures
Subwoofer AMP - JL 500/1V2
Front Speakers - JL VR650-CSi Evo VR Component
Rear Speakers - MB Quart DKH116 2-Way Coaxial
Speakers AMP - JL 300/4V2
Capacitor - Soundstorm 2-Farad
Wiring - Kicker 4 Gauge Dual AMP Kit
Total = $2,003
I'm not sure about the wiring or capacitor (by this I mean, I read around so I don't know much). I just know 4 gauge would be good for like 1000watts and I need a capacitor so I have enough power for the speakers and sub.
I am assuming this is all I need to fully upgrade my sound system in my car. I am going to have someone help me install everything or just take it to a shop. Again, I am new to this so any advice is welcome!
