Help with a system 1500-2000 to spend...

[CT_SRT 10+ year member]

This has prob been beat to death but i always like many oppinions. Im finnaly ready for a system again and wanted some input. For everything not including installation i have about 1500-2000 to spend id like to keep it towards the 1500 end. What im looking for is some amazingly clear and loud highs, I listen to mostly rap and classic rock but also some techno. And i want eithere a dual 10 or 12 setup i would love for it to get real loud while conserving on weight, id prefer to go a sealed box route or small ported becasue my trunk is not that large. I would like input for everything from decks to subs to speakers and amps. Theres always so much changing in the car audio market and ive been gone for a little while. I have a new orion 1200d wich i might use and might not soo any help is much appreciated..Im Really trying to keep the sub/box and amp weight under 70-80 pounds maybe a little more.. Thanks again.

whatever deck you want, Alpine, Eclipse and Pioneer are probably the most used/liked

http://www.crutchfield.com is a good place for decks cause they give you a dash kit and all wiring for free

for speakers, Focal http://www.focal-america.com/

for subs, maybe RLp's, dual 4 ohm http://www.soundsplinter.com

id use your Orion amp

and maybe a US Amp from http://www.ikesound.com killer prices

bump for some more ideas but heres what i was thinking...

Deck: Eclipse CD4000

Sub: 1 12" Mag

Comp: 5.25" Focal Polykevlars(how much diff between the polyglass?)

sub amp: 1200d

how does that sound??? it should be good but im worried about the wiring of the mag and my amp i need to get the most out of this 1200 and its not the newest one and i dont really remember the specs.. i think it was 1400 @ 1ohm but thats all i can remember...
