The components of a good car sound system would be as follows: The source (cd player, in-dash dvd/nav system, radio, tape player, etc.), the speakers, the subs, the amps, the parts/wiring. Also, depending on how big of a system, possibly a new battery or two and an alternator. Here are some of my recommendations as far as good brands.

As far as the order in which to purchase (if you can't do it all at once) here would be my suggestion:

First replace you speakers (stock stereo with good speakers sounds better then aftermarket stereo with stock speakers),

What type of amp should I buy for my 2 15" Kicker Subs?


Then replace the deck (it'll help the speakers, but it will also give you the foundation to build the rest of the system off of)

my ford sterio says MP3 under the CD what does that mean?


Next, subs/amps/wiring (give you that extra bass that you need, make sure you use good wiring and the right size, capacitors if needed, important for system, also as far as the wiring, remember you will need another amp for speakers)

How much does a decent car audio system cost?


Next, amp for speakers (speakers will play cleaner, tighter, more accurate, and louder - a must, especially with the subs)

Now as far as where to get them, most of these companies will be available at Circuit City, BestBuy, Cardomain.com, Cruthfield.com. Others are only sold at authorized dealers (usually a local audio company), but you'll have to check out their websites in order to find the ones nearest you.

What is the best gain and bass boost setting for my system?


As far as cost, I would say a decent FULL system would start around 1200 installed and then just go up from there. Now just new speakers and a deck, I'd say around 450 and up for a good setup completely installed.

Car battery flat after ICE installation?


But in the end these are just my recommendations (based on quality and sound), like Sparky said only you can judge what you like. Everyone's ears are a little different so what sounds good to me may not sound good to you. Shop around at all the car audio dealers and take a listen, but make sure you take one of your cds with you so you can judge all of them with the same song (one that you are familiar with).

Well.. if you're looking for a particular brand, try Alpine. It's a great sterio, plus it has anti-thieving devices on it. It has great sound and bass for a nice price. Try to get one around for holiday prices.

1. DECK
2. SUBS + AMP (a must for subs, you make it look optional)
3. DOOR SPEAKERS + 4 CHANNEL AMP

what is best sub enclosure for chevy ext cab?


The reason for my order is because you need a deck to power your stock door speakers. If you get aftermarket speaker on a stock deck, they need more power than a stock speaker, therefore your speakers will crave power and demagenetize. So, after a deck, buy sub(s) because you need to work off of that to buy door speakers. If you buy the loudest door speaker first, you will have a BIG problem finding the right sub for your vehicle. THE AMPS ARE MANDATORY FOR ALL SUBWOOFERS! If you want more SQL(Sound Quality), you might want to buy an amp for your door speakers.

i have a problem with my cd player.....can anyone help?


That $1,200 you're saying for a decent system is low.
Door Speakers + Deck + Sub(s) + 2 Amps (sub + speaker) = more than $1,200.

hi we have a mk 1 capri bronze colour for sale need help to find out a club to advertise?


Decent is this: (going by the equation order above)

What are subwoofers?

Its not in the brand its in the install and setup Ive seen a 8in sub powered by a 500w 250w RMS amp slaming harder than a 12in sub being powered by a 800w 400w RMS amp the difference was one was installed proporly the other wasnt you need to take everything into account gauge of the wire length of the wire fuse amperage placement of power wires and RCA's even direction impedence of subs weather to wire them in series or parrellell ground point propor connections spade connections o connections battery voltage and impedence everything BRAND DOES NOT MATTER!!!
