[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 630812, member: 555320"] If you have the money to spend, Alpine amps would be great since you can control them through the headunit. They are kinda pricey though, which is why more people aren't using them. Speakers won't matter if they are Alpine or not, you can't control the speakers at all with the headunit, only the amps. I am personally against rear fill (having speakers in back) unless they are for rear seat passengers only and only used then. IMO with an adequate front stage, rear fill should not be needed. So, if I were you, I'd focus on a good set of components for up front (ask if you don't know what component speakers are) with a good, decently high powered 2-channel amp. Again, if you have the money, Alpine amps are great and you can control them w/ the headunit (I believe), which is handy and convienent. If you did want rear speakers for rear seat passengers, then just get a decent set of co-axials and power them off of the headunits internal amp. But, before we can progress, we need to know how much you have to spend. Also need to know what size speakers your car currently has. [/QUOTE]
