New vehicle, new system: Suggestions and Criticism

[maldecido33 10+ year member]

I'm gonna be getting a new truck in about 6 months, and I'm already getting the jitters, etc and designing a setup for it.

So far, here is what I have:

Sub: 12" Fi BTL (fully loaded)

Sub Amp: IA 20.1 (Any other suggestions to power a BTL?)

Front Speakers: Boston Pro60's

Rearfill: Just some $50 coaxials off deck power

Speaker Amp: Undecided Give Me Suggestions!

Headunit: Pioneer Premier 880PRS

Wiring: Kicker 1/0awg Hyperflex and 8awg Hyperflex, KnuKonceptz Accessories (Rings, Terminals, Distro Blocks, etc)

Sound Dampening: Second Skin Spectrum Sludge (Any alternatives, I'm looking for the best bang for the buck here)

Electrical: Big 3, Optima Yellowtop (under the hood), Kinetik HC2400 (Is this necessary?), MAYBE a rewound alternator if I feel I need it; I don't think a H.O. would be able to fit in the budget

So basically, I need an amp for my Pro60s, alternatives to a 20.1 for a BTL (used as a daily driver), the best bang for the buck sound deadening, would I need a dedicated sub battery in addition to a yellowtop under the hood?

I know it's somewhat of an expensive setup, but in any suggestions I'd like the best bang for the buck, but I want it to perform!

yeah... get the 40.1 or something with more powa! Change the rear fill to coaxials that match the pro60's. Run both sets of speakers off the speaker amp. Second Skin damplifier and use some overkill/luxury liner. Match your speaker amp to whatever amp you run for your subs.
