Hi, guys!

I'm new to the forum so hi there to all of you!

I apologize if this is not right place to post this kind of question and please move me to the right spot if so.

Since a few weeks I'm an owner of Toyota Camry 2014.5 with Entune Audio: 6.1" Touch Screen, 6 Spkrs.

I decided to upgrade my car audio and planning to do it myself as a fun project, want to keep my Toyota head unit, ... so far I came up with following setup:

Not sure if it's ok to show amazon links on the forum so just in case will add additional desc.

Sub:

JL Audio CP212-W0V3 Dual 12"

https://www.amazon.com/JL-Audio-CP21...udio+subwoofer

5 channel Amp:

Pioneer GM-D9605 Gm Digital Series Class D

https://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-GM-D9...hannel+pioneer

3 pai of speakers:

JBL CLUB 9630 6x9" 3-way Coaxial Speaker System

https://www.amazon.com/JBL-3-way-Coa...Bspeakers&th=1

Door insulation:

Dynamat:

https://www.amazon.com/Dynamat-10435...s=dynamat&th=1

Is it worth investing right when I'm starting my project? will it have a significant impact on my sound?

Can I consider it as a later on upgrade?

Cables:

https://www.amazon.com/KnuKonceptz-K...NWA3CMRHFNJXCY

No idea about the cables so far so I just picked whatever amazon suggest as the most often bought together with amp

This will be my first time doing this kind of job, am I being to ****y relaying on YouTube tutorials ?

Questions:

- is this a good setup for a buck (considering that my music will be mostly electronic trance/house sometimes hip hop),

- do i need any other hardware that I did not listed?,

- is the installation of that kind of configuration too much for the patient newbie like me ?,

- is the choise od the hardware optimal considering the car: would be better to get to subs to install on the two sides of trunk instead of one?,

- do I need some additional screen to install to get some additional EQ setting? maybe is there a way to use a phone for that purpose?,

- is there a set of tools beside the regular screw drawers and knifes that I should consider to purchase?

- what other questions should I ask?

Thanks a lot for all help!

If you want 5 channels of amplification you just need 5 channels of amplification. You can do this with 5 amps or 1, depends on budget and space...
