I'd say the best place to start is with a budget....

No More That 2000

i would go with a set of components up front with a 2-channel amp. for a headunit a pioneer, eclipse, alpine. clarion are all decent brands so probably find one with the features you like. also to make a system sound good it depends on install, proper wire size, good box, sound deadening, etc.

Alright, well to be brutally honest, just search the forum. There have been quite a few of these threads. There are also unlimited configurations you could use and there would be people in here saying all kinds of crap. But my recomendation would be to get two mid level subs, you may want to stay away from mainstream stuff, its many times overpriced. A few examples would be Elemental Designs Ov.2, RE SE, all of Image Dynamics stuff is pretty decent (IDMax is very nice), JL w6v2 is sweet, but may push your budget a bit far.

Speakers are complete preference, but I would only recomend to get components, and amp them.

For amps look into decent, I've been hearing of lots of problems with Hifonics, so I'd stay away from them since you have the money. I've seen a few deals on a few pretty decent Directed amps online.

Cd player is also complete preference, get whatever your budget can handle, and whatever features you deem necessary. Check out Alpine, Eclipse, Clarion, and some Pioneer Premiers .

THAKS.. HOW ABOUT 2 12' MEMPHIS M3 SUBS. CLARION CD PLAYER. 2 JL 500 AMPS AND JL XR 570-CSi FOR SPEAKERS. I PROBABLY WANNA GET MA BOX PORTED BUT IDK HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH. AND WHAT SHOULD I TUNE IT TO

Those M3's would work fine, there are other options though, those JL amps are very nice and would be a good choice, but I think a single 1000/1 would be easier and cheaper. an MA box? I would recomend building a box, or having someone build it for you, don't buy a pre-fabricated box. I would vote tuning around 30 or so, but I really have no experience with those subs so I couldn't really tell you any ideal conditions for them, but in general if you want it to sound good you are going to want it tuned low.

By Other Options What U Mean, Is There Someting Better N The Same Price Range If So Clue Me N. Do U Think L5's Would B Better
