[QUOTE="jsloan10, post: 923646, member: 560397"] This is just a suggestion, there are other ways to do it as well, but just for the sake of simplicity. Head unit- Get a quality head unit that has front/rear/sub rca outputs, this will allow for most equalization to be done right from the head unit. Speakers- Again get somthing of quality that will fit in the factory locations, you could go with different than stock but the cost of the install will be considerably higher due to fabrication. Subwoofers- Quaility, find something that performs well in the enclosure you plan to use and will match to your amplifiers capabilitys, for example a 500watt rms amp will work well with two 250watt rms subs (be aware of wiring of the voice coils though to get the proper ohm load). Amplifiers- A four channel amp that puts out around 50watts x4 rms will do a good job of powering you upgraded speakers, huge power is not needed here as the subwoofers will take on all the power hungry low notes. A class D mono block is an excellent choice for powering subwoofers, its efficient and purpose built for the job, a 400 to 600 watt rms monoblock is a good choice as most factory electrical systems will handle it with no problems and it will still have enough power for a pair of quality subwoofers, an added bonus is that it won't require huge power wire either, 4gauge will work fine and save you on install costs.
