Good/Bad?
I am relatively new to the whole stereo thing, Im only 16 and dont have much experience with anything yet, i was just wondering how mine rates in other people's eyes and what they think in can produce on a decibel meter. Your input is greatly appreciated.

Alpine MRP-M650 amp
Alpine Type S- 6 x 9s

Thats pretty nice, but if it were me I would switch your amp for a thousand watt verson. that will ensure that you are giving good clean power. it will sound ten times better and you will ensure that you will not blow anything!

seriously though, your best bet would be to research your equipment, as well as other manufacturers... diversity is your friend... that being said there is nothing wrong with the equipment you have, just a suggestion.

IMO you may want to upgrade the front (i'm assuming those were the 4x6 type S). Youll notice a hige imporvement in your sound quality with 6x9 Alpine Type R's (keeping with the theme). That is of course providing theres space in the door to fit them.
I did a simillar install in my last car. 1991 Mazda mx6 with stock 4" rounds in the front dash. Cut some nice big holes in the door with a sawzall and hooked up 6x9 type R's. Surprisingly easy to do and sounded nice.
I'm all about SQ myself so i think upgrading your front is a pretty important upgrade.
