Product availability shouldnt be a problem with the world wide web. But man thats a huge question you got there. Try narrowing it down a little. You will get a bunch of opinions on here some are biased some are not.

Going all pionner wouldn't be bad if u are looking for SPL with some SQ...If So I'd recommend:

HU

Pioneer Premier DEH-P780MP

Speakers:

Pioneer Rev coaxs should be fine but I'd re-commend u go with another company like Rainbow Audio for some comps because they'd give u better midbass.

Speaker Amp:

Pioneer GM-5200T

Sub:

Pioneer Premier TS-W3004SPL

Sub Amp:

Pioneer Premier PRS-D3000SPL
