Howdy, as you see by the title this post is a request for help with getting a new sound system. Currently my car is running on basic factory speakers with only an aftermarket radio. I’m looking into replacing all 4 door speakers and adding in a sub.

Car:

2007 Kia Optima LX

-6.5” front and rear door speaker size

Aftermarket Radio:

DEH-X4700BT (2014 mode)

My speakers are giving up on my due to its age so now is the time I start planning for a new system. I’ve been looking online for a few days now at different brands of speakers, amps, and subs. I’m providing everything that I’m looking at and need some feedback on what to switch or if everything is good and such. This would be my first time doing something like this so I’m turning to forums for help. My car and my life are at risk so I want to make sure of everything before buying it and having any issues. Everything seems straightforward until it talks about Ohm’s, wattage, amperage, etc. Currently I’m looking at-

Speakers:
