Need help selecting a system for my vehicle

[klyons]

To start things off, I am a noob when it comes to this topic, and don't know very much about it (So just kind of bare with me). Oh and I am sorry if this topic is in the wrong place so mods feel free to move it. But anyways, I just bought an 03 Chevy Tahoe and I am looking to put a system in it. I listen to only Metal (Metallica, Machine Head, Devildriver, Slayer and so on). What I am looking for is something that is loud as hell but yet puts out very clear and distinct audio quality without too much distortion to it. I don't care for/want my car to be "bumpin" from the bass drum kicks and clutter up the other instruments and vocals. Just a little thud, like I said I just want as loud as I can get with good quality, and so I can distinctively hear all the instruments very clearly. Price range would be around the $400 range (I might budge a little if you guys think its necessary).

I guess for that price range look into MB Quart amps/speakers. and 2 10s in a box.

$400 will not get ya far. You are best off to keep saving....and come back with about $1000. You will not get a deck, 4 components, amp for them, subs, sub box, amp for subs, and all wiring, and possibly battery/alt etc.

pickup a 12" Dcon, snag a cheap amp off the classifieds and build yourself a box using $40 worth of materials.

thats about what I think too. I mean if you want loud clear good sound quality you're not gonna get it for 400. for 400 you could get a basic hu with crossover and eq. ok set of components up front, wiring, and 1 sub and 1 amp. and thats a maybe at best.

With a Chevy the first thing I would change would be the deck
