My Car audio set up, Tell me what you think

[cody909 10+ year member]

I have been shoppin around for the past few days,

I have about 300$ to spend on a stereo system for the inside of my car, Just the 4 speakers

What i found was:

Amp: SoundStorm 350.4SL 1400 Watts 4 Channel MOSFET Bridgeable Power Amplifier

Or

Crunch P1800.4 1800W 4-Channel Powerzone Series Car Amplifier

Rear Speakers: Alpine SPR-17C 6-1/2" 2-Way 300W Car Speakers

Front Speakers: Alpine SPS-400 4" 2-way 170W Car Speakers

I tryed my best to figure out what would match up too what?

Please give me your input/recommendations for other products, ect.

Your help would be greatly appreciated, since i am currently half clueless about all electronics.

Thanks

Is there any AMP that you would recommend instead of sound storm that will power my speakers to the best

scrap all those inside speakers and get a set of CTX65CS. That gives you 140 dollars to find an amp to bridge to it. A diamond audio amp will fit the bill i believe.

Bad as in good?

NOT Recomendend. people will arhue this but **** the rear speakers, keep your stock and put the money in a good front end setup. pioneer premiers are great for the buck.

all your stuff that u picked out is complete trash and won't last you long.. it even pissed you off and makes u wanna upgrade..... do it right and make wise decision with your money //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif . I think lyttleviet has some specials suggestion for your budget.. Replacing door speakers won't give u much bass like it was with your stock hahaha. It'll b cleaner and louder . If you want decent bass, get a sub .

Had that crunch amp back in the day. It did the job, nothing special. If 300 is your budget, it's a good start. it only does somewhere in the area of 125 watts a channel, but I doubt if it does all of that.

you could piss me off and get this amp

I say piss me off because I might get it.

and maybe 2 sets of these

Not really sure of all of your speaker sizes, but they have different sizes as well. You would be over 300 but not by much.
