[QUOTE="Skooter, post: 8089475, member: 647506"] Sorry I haven't been around much. I've been studying for exams lately, but here's a quick update with some good news! I traded my Boss d500.2 amp for a Hifonics Brutus 600.1 amp. I traded my Boss CX 1100 Monoblock amp for a Kicker KX 600.4 amp. So now I have: JVC-KD730BT Head Unit Hifonics Brutus 600.1 running my Alpine SWS-12D2 12" Subwoofer Kicker KX 600.4 running my Alpine Type-R 5-1/4" components in the rear doors. Bose 3-1/2" tweeters in dash and Bose 7" subwoofers in door running off the stock Bose amplifier. Now, since I've merely traded for what I have or had it already, my budget has yet to be touched! Because this is the case, I've been looking at better components to fill out my front stage. I like the look and specs of these: [URL="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_27343_RE-Audio-XXX6.5C.html"]RE Audio XXX6.5C (XXX65C) 6.5" 2-Way XXX Component Car Speakers[/URL] and I know that they will fit in my doors as I've checked the mounting depth. Even though I picked these out, I really don't know anything about RE, so I'd need your opinions on the components I should use, and amplifier I should use for the best quality within my constraints of price, which have been pleasantly increased. On top of all that, I ran two runs of 4 gauge wire from my battery for my amplifiers and ran 14 gauge wire to all my speakers in preparation for the upgrades farther down the road.

As of yet, my lights haven't dimmed, nor has my needle on the gauge in my dash moved down at all. So now that I have yet to touch my budget, but yet have components I planned on purchasing, what would you guys recommend? Thank you!
