Project part 1: choosing parts

[precise 10+ year member]

project car: 05 legacy gt sedan (6 speaker stock system w/o optional subwoofer)

components:

JL Audio 10" W6V2 Subwoofer

Focal 165 V Slim Front Speakers and Tweeters

Focal 130CA 5-1/4" Rear Speakers

JL Audio 400x1 Mono Amp

JL Audio 300X4 Amp

JL Cleansweep

the last car that i got a system in i messed up bigtime by listening to ppl to had no idea what they were saying, so i decided to come here...

what im looking to accomplish is something thats has good SQ and some SPL. i dont really need people to hear me 4 blocks down the street. i can't get an aftermarket head unit because the climate control circuitry is combined with the radio so thats why im thinking about the cleansweep.

The last system i had was a mtx 81000d amp powering a kicker 12 L7 w/ stock speakers. In this car, i'm trying to keep as much trunk room as possible so a custom box in the trunk will be needed (how does putting the sub in the wedge on the right/left side of the trunk affect the sound?).

The setup above looks good to me from what i researched...except for the amps. They are expensive and it seems like I could get cheaper ones that are just as reliable so are there any suggestions for that?

Also, any suggestions for the other components as well?

Can I use my 81000d with the w6v2 or am i better off gettin a new amp?

Are there any other makes/models that i should consider that are comparable to above and will save me money (CDT, RE, etc.) and maybe a quick estimation of parts cost?

Thank you so much! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
