I'm looking at replacing my stock speakers and put a decent sub. I don't need trunk-shaking-bass. I want clarity, clean, with enough thump! My brother in law's rockford fosgate equied EVO X from factory sounds good enough for me! I have a 2006 M3 without harman kardon and it sounds terrible.

Can somebody help me pick speakers for I don't know which are the best sounding speakers for right PRICE RANGE nor I have the resource and experience to listen and pick which one sounds good. I wouldn't want to spend more than $1k if I don't have to.

Put recommendation for the brand/model and what price new/used should be! Thank you!

FRONT - 6.5" component

REAR - 6.5" component (cheap) or co-ax

SUBS - someone's offering me a JL Stealthbox, two 8" free-air woofers for $250

or should I stay with single 10"?

AMP - 500/5?

 
stay away from jl overpriced

boston acoustics gta-1105 - Google Search

sundown audio has there e-10 on sale for 85 its a steal thing sounds amazing and can get low
SSA Shop - Sundown Audio E8 sub woofer
buy the sub through ssa and you get free shipping, you want dual 4

most important thing is to get a custom box from @double 07 ; the box is the most important aspect of your sub stage and he is the best

so down to components
Incriminator Audio I Series 6.5" Components
the best 120 and under component bar none

if you are willing to spend a little more since i saved you so much on sub and amp
CDT Audio CL-62 Component Set - Vertex Audio
will blow you away :)

CDT Audio ES-6CFX - Vertex Audio
for your rear coax's these are an amazing deal. blow you away with built in crossovers

do you plan on changing your headunit :)
 
Woah thanks for the rwply. How much does he usually charge, double 07 for the boxes. Components for the rear are a waste yeah? I will be keeping the oem unit with nav etc, keeping it oem look!

 
Are those 6.5 comps priced a piece?!
Hey bud,

So a good option for speakers would be to go with the CL-62 comps in the front. Thats $195 for the set. If thats to pricey then the IAs will work well. For the rears all you will need is a fill, no need for a component set. The ES-6CFX coaxials will work great, those are $100 for the pair. As for the amps there are a few different options. I would recommend putting in a 4 channel for the comps and coaxials and a mono amp for the sub. There are lots of different options for the subs. The sundowns are great. I can set you up with a package deal for everything you need minus the box for a good price. Pm me if you are interested.

Is it necessary for 2 amps? I know thats better but i would like it to take minimal space. I would love stealth box specific for my bmw e46 coupe. If you can make me one specific let me know!

I can't get a stealth box for you, but im sure a box builder can easily make a box that will fit you BMW. As for the amp, if your looking to do one amp to power it all its not going to be cheap. You will need a 5 channel of 6 channel amp. There are a few good options out there. Such as the PPI 6 channels.
