[QUOTE="th3disturbed1, post: 6380215, member: 608855"] Personally, I would ditch the rears and get a good set of component speakers up front. If you get a 4 channel, i would bridge them into 2 channels so you can power your speakers better. If I had known that before I bought my speakers, I would have saved a ton of money. Also, if there are any shops near you, check out what they have on display and see what you like. Definitely get some opinions here on brands and such and get a one channel (monoblock) for the sub. Do NOT get a capacitor. You're better off with another battery. What kind of car? If you want that drum kick in your chest, you may need a lot of power depending on the car. I need to really turn mine up to get that because of my trunk =/ Quick rundown: 1. Component Speakers off an external amplifier 2. Leave the stock rears run of the head unit 3. Subwoofer run off a mono block amplifier. When you decide what you want to get, we can help you with ohms. 4. Make sure to factor in money for quality wiring.. I upgraded twice, first from 8 gauge to 4 gauge, and again to 1/0. It gets expensive. Do it right the first time. [/QUOTE]
