And all the cabling necessary.

have you looked at all? common places to look are woofersetc.com or sonicelectronix.com. or check out the websites and see if there are any dealers around. check out the classifieds on here also. get some good deals. if you have questions about any of the products, do some searching around in the tech section cause its almost a gurantee the question has been answered several times already

What are you looking for in these, Louness? Sound Quality? a mixture of both?

Also have you considered a single 15, that will be more cost effective, and allow you to buy a higher quality speaker for the same price.

2 Sets of speakers

Again, Loudness, Sound Quality? How much power are you looking to put out, what size of speakers do you need, have you considered where to mount the tweeters if you choose a component set?

Head Unit

What features are you looking for? do you want it to have USB, AUX, Bluetooth, iPod support? are you looking for something that has a removable faceplate?

2 amps

This mainly depends on the speaker choice, but do you have the electrical to support 2 high power amps? have you considered the cost in replacing the battery under the hood and perhaps even adding a second battery?

Mixture of both really, I listen to alot of Dupstep and Techo/House. And no I have not considered that, mostly because I'm new to all of this.

I believe I need 4.5 and again mixture. For power I have no idea, I'm asking the wizards. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

AUX is necessary, Bluetooth and Ipod would be a cool plus, but AUX would cover both my Phone and Ipod. Removable faceplate I think is another must.

Honestly, I haven't considered any of that, You're input would be greatly appreciated.
