Help guys! i know nothing about good sounding stereo's!

i want good quality sounding stuff for my car! it should also be quite loud but nothing like SPL just for cruising and stuff.
here is what i was thinking give me your input and what you think it should cost.. there are a few things i dunno now btw i have no good components now!

-kicker resolution RMB8 8" midbass for woofers(pair)
-amp(not sure what i need to power 2 subs)
-in dash cd changer or even MD
-component set for up front

i know its very blank but like the title says i know squat about this help me out!
i will need wires too what should i do?

Scrap the kicker 8's and pick up some TB 8's instead. Something around 200 wrms would be fine I think, maybe talk to loudsubz about that. In-dash changers arent really that great but if u really want one clarion makes a nice md changer.

Components depend on how much you wanna spend.

chris will guide you in the right direction

but yeah the TB are nice, watch out some 8's are more midbass and wont go low enough for your liking.

Yeah for more info the guy to talk to is matt about the 8's as he's running them in his current setup. The kicker midbass 8's im pretty sure wont hit the lows like real subs would.

If you can give me a range of prices you wanna pay for everything you are looking for I can help you out better.

not to burst ur bubble but ur subs are prolly just a little above the quality of the new sony explode stuff. Infinity is competition stuff really so stop trying to fool people.

How about a Kicker CompVr (1 12 inch 2OHM) = around $379\
Amplifer Rockford Fosgate 351M around I think = $350
Amp Kit 4 AWG = $125
Kicker Kseries = around $300

Over a grand but just a suggestion
