Stereo Upgrades
Ok guys the stereo in my truck has a nice little bump to it. Who ever said power corrupts the mind was right. Now I'm looking for some thing bigger and better in my head unit, amp and subs. I would like for it to be loud enough to were i could bump some one else off the street. I was thinking about Rockford subs and amp, and a head unit with the best sound quality to push the subs,door speakers,and tweeters. Oh and i'm looking to upgrade the tweeters also. Any pointers would be a great help and where to get them @ the cheapest place would be to get every thing. tHaNkS!

Well There Is About 5000000 Different Ways You Can Go, One Guy Stating The Next Is Better.
I Am A Man Of Sound Quality, Not Totally Quantity (Although My System Bumps!).
My Setup Was Over $4K Including The Navigation. My Preference (Which I Swore I Would Recommend To EVERYONE Once I Heard Mine For The First Time) Is Boston Acoustic Speakers. I Have Their Pro 60's - They Are Flippen Expensive, But Their Step Down Is Boston Acoustics SX60 6-1/2" component speaker system For 6-1/2" and 6-3/4" openings at Crutchfield.com = Sweet Sound - Doesn't Require A Large Amount Of Power To Create Clarity.
NOW, For The Part That I Think You Will Like - I Am Also A HUGE Fan Of JL Equipment - To Me They Are As Top Shelf, & As Long Lasting As Possible. I Have The JL 500x5 & A 10W3V2. And It Bumps.. But It Sounds Like You Want More.
I Would Recommend A JL 12W3v3 - New Design, Claimed To Be Indestructible.
JL Audio: W3v3 Subwoofers
Sub Amp : JL Audio: Products
Speaker Amp: JL Audio: Products
Your Rear Speakers Are Not As Important As Your Fronts.. Meaning You Can Be Partially Cheep With Your Rears.
Hope That Helps

I think i found a good deal on subs,box, and amp from rockford, BUT the it's really expensive @best buy the amp is like $650, the subs and box are like 450, but i can buy for a best buy card and can make payments as low as $12 a month on them. And sense i'm buying so much from them they will knock like $150 off. I'm just going to think about it for a while.

I have a stock head unit with the stock infinity speakers and they were pretty good but i wanted to bump a little not a lot a little so i went a purchased a JL W1 12inch for under the rear seat. I didnt think it would hit that hard but i also but a JL 1400E amp to it and turned the amp down to 600 watt and it hits pretty good just enough to rattle the crap out of my doors and mirrors
