[QUOTE="Heeltoeclutch, post: 7542137, member: 629974"] Welcome to the forum Passat, One thing I'd recommend if you're on a budget (or even if you're not) is to leave the rear speakers alone. You will not gain much by amping them or, if they're halfway decent, replacing them. I would focus your speaker money on a very good set of components for the fronts. If you're good on a HU, figure: Subs: ~$400 Box: ~$70 Speakers: ~$100-200 Comps Amp: ~$120 for a 2-channel Sub Amp: ~$????? maybe 1000W RMS? Wiring, etc.: ~$120 This gives you around 200 for a sub amp. If you're going to be running more than 1000W I'd recommend you definitely do the Big 3 at the least electrical-wise. Have you considered buying used or from the forum? Got my amps from here and another forum, saved moneys [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
