Need help on x2 kicker set up

[rbai76 10+ year member]

So I have a jeep cheroke, it is a 97.

I am looking for tips and suggestions on this set up.

So far I know I will need 2 front speakers, 1. And an amp that can power it all.

** I'm not sure what will be better, 1 or 2 subs. I am looking for good bass for dubstep.

I was looking at this kicker sub

Kicker CompVR 07CVR124 12" subwoofer with dual 4-ohm voice coils at Crutchfield.com

And these speakers

Polk Audio db6501 6-1/2" component speaker system — also fit 6-3/4" openings at Crutchfield.com

I have a $1000 budget so If I could get better speakers/subs in that price range just let me know

welcome to the jeep club. i have a jeep Cherokee also and love this **** out of it.

the subs you picked out are fine. just be sure to buy the subs with the right impedance voice coils to match up the the amp you have or plan to buy.

the speakers your looking @ are fine. i would suggest also surfing the classifieds here on this forum, and also caraudioclassifieds website, even try soniclectronix.com. i am not a fan of cruthfield.

as far as the front speakers, changing them out wont really make them louder, buy maybe add some clarity, i suggest a NICE amp for you highs, a two channel will be fine but a 4 channel would be a good idea. a rockford fosgate, kicker, etc will be fine.

if you havent yet, upgrade the headunit.

if you ever have any technical questions about your cherokee as far as audio goes just pm me. i know my cherokee from front to back.
