[QUOTE="Hintzyboy, post: 4502594, member: 566521"] Don't even use rear speakers. A good set of components up front will be more than enough. Just go to smaller audio shops around you and listen to stuff. If you want to buy online, I suggest you go this way. 1. The Alpine HU you want is fine. 2. One good component set. The Type-X set is the only alpine set out there worth anything, but I would look elsewhere for speakers. There are literally dozens of companies out there that make great stuff. I would look at the Pioneer Premier TS-C720 PRS set. Great comps and can be had for around $250 online. 3. A good 2-channel amp. Anything by a decent company that puts out around 75-100w RMS x2 at 4 ohms will work. I'm particularly partial to Memphis amps. There are also a few other things you need. You're going to need all your wiring. An 8 guage amp kit should do the trick. You'll also need to purchase some sound deadening material. Without properly deadened doors, your new components may very well sound worse than your stock speakers. For install, you might want to consider having a shop (a real audio shop, not BB/CC) do it if you need it done soon. For a first timer, it can take a good amount of time. At least see if there are any forum members near you that might be willing to help. [/QUOTE]
