[QUOTE="scadiz, post: 8395130, member: 666275"] Hi, totally new to this scene, but have been doing some research online and have talked to some guys I know that are into sounds so I have a general understanding at best. Not planning on competing, but have all summer to stash away a nice little play around fund. One of the guys I was talking a little with said if I'm not planning on getting that serious (competing etc) then four 6x9s and two 15'' subs would be more than fine. Car: 2003 Crown Vic (interceptor) Prospective build Speakers (2 sets each total of 4 speakers): Alpine SPE-6090 or Kicker 41DSC6934 or Kicker 40CS6934. Not planning on getting an amp for the speakers ... yet. Would it be worth the investment to get the 40CS6934 as they are rated 2-150 RMS, so I have the option to amp them up later? Or will the other Kickers be fine? Any other suggestions other than 6x9s? The only sub I've looked at so far is the Kicker 10C154. Planning on choosing a sub first, then looking for an amp to match... is that a good plan of attack? As far as the head unit, was planning on something middle of the way, but from what I gathered talking to people it doesn't matter that much. Don't need any video/touch screens etc, just something with an aux output :P Being totally new, I have no idea what the 'go to' brands and combinations are ... Could anyone help me out with this? The last question I have is, most sub amps I see are 'monoblock' or mono ... does that mean two will be needed to push two subs? (one for each)? Or can one amp push two subs ... if so, what type of amp should I be looking for? I know it sounds like I'm asking for you guys to build it for me ... But I'm really just looking for some general direction. Have no idea who the reputable brands are or what the 'classic' combinations are. Thank you! [/QUOTE]
