[QUOTE="yanathin, post: 348529, member: 551539"] Hey, I really need a few minutes of somebody's time to ask a ton of questions about my system... I really don't want to get ripped off, because I know that's really easy do have happen when I don't know too much about what I'm getting. Anyway, here's what I have right now: '98 Eclipse Sony Xplod MP40 HU Performance Teknique 771 Amp Rockford Fosgate 12" Sub Stock Speakers (6 1/2's and 6x9's) Now that that's out of the way, I come to my problem. My brother gave me another amp for the holidays (Performance Teknique 775, which I believe is a 500w), and now I want better speakers in my car (preferably Alpines, unless you suggest something that might sound better with my setup). The problem is... I have absolutely no knowledge of what kind of speakers I'll need to hook up to that amp, or if my HU can even support another amp. If it can't (and I'm guessing it can't), then what would be the best HU to get? So, if I could take about ten minutes of somebody's time and experience to ask a bunch of questions about what I need, I'd really, really appreciate it (AIM screen name: Yanathin).
