This will be the first time i have ever added anything to do with audio to my car and i wanted to review it with you guys before i buy to make sure everything fits just right. i also would like suggestions to see if i can get anything better for the same price

For subs i was looking at these 2

which should i go with? Or do you think id be better off with Component Subwoofers and just buying a Enclosure for them?

For speakers i was looking at these for both front and rear doors

For the head piece i wanted this because of the usb so i can listen to my mp3 player and something that will make my speakers sound well

are you set on getting them all together cuz it would be better to save up bit by bit, but if you rele want to get it all what kinda music you listen too are you gonna be looking for strong mids and highs for like rock or like lows and mids for hip hop

Well i listen to both punk rock and rap, i would rather have it be clear sound rather than huge booms with lesser quality.

What do you listen too, and what do you want SQ are SPL?

edit: Get some CVX then, there great in a sealed box.

I think CVX are good. Rather what sub you get, I would get a sealed box. I went from a sealed to a ported and notice the difference in loudness, but the sq took a step back. One song in I remember is 'Its My Time', by Rick Ross. It sounded beautiful in the sealed. I liked the song just for the bass. Now Its not the same. So since you dont want nothing major thats why I say go sealed. Its a great balance of the two. Almost any sub somebody recommends will do greaty sealed. Just make sure you get the right kind for the sub.
