[QUOTE="itslinx, post: 4451217, member: 589604"] I think i've finally decided which speakers and sub I want to get. Now I just need some good amp recommendations. I want stuff that's gonna give me a good amount of bass (not extreme) and some speakers/tweeters that'll sound better than the factory ones in my car now. I pretty much know nothing about car audio and i'm really looking forward to getting this going sooner than later. So, for speakers/tweeters i'm leaning towards..

[B]Kicker TS10L52[/B] Ported truck-style box with one 10" L5 Solobaric subwoofer. - [URL="http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?search=Kicker+TS10L52&i=2066TS10L5"]http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?search=Kicker+TS10L52&i=2066TS10L5[/URL] [B]If you'd like to recommend a better sub (also with enclosure), be my guest.[/B] -------------------------------------------------------- I've read/heard good things about that Kicker.
