Unhappy help with achieving best sound in my car please

Hi

I am looking for the gurus here to give me there insight on achieving the best sound in my car.
I am looking for the same kind of sound you hear in newer 2005 or newer model cars. I just love the sound. I am talking about factory installed deck with factory speakers, I love the sound, or if you can help me setup even better sound than that then wow that would be GREAT, but atleast achieve the sound of 2005 honda accord/civic sport.

Now based on above, can you recommend me the following:
- I need A deck
- I need the best Amplifier KIT to run 2/4x6 front, 2/6x9 rears and may be subs
- I have a MTX bass amp for the subs
- I have a infinity amp for the front/rear speakers

Car is a chevy caprice 1991
I am looking to bring atleast the sound to 21st century in that car.
Thanks

You need a budget to work with to start. Who will be installing the equipment to make it work properly next. Finally are you open to custom fabrication on the front speakers to get some real sound in there?

Yes well the thing is, I am in no hurry to do this setup, so I am going to take it slow and best approach, budget lets say under $1500.
Custom fabrication, do you mean dynamat stuff? or something more than that? if its related to getting some DYNAMATS installed in there then sure I am up for that. I might get some mobile installers do the work for me, or I might just go to some shop who specializes in installing it car audio.

I am talking about getting real speakers into the front of the car. You will need to create mounts for them in places where there are none. The front speakers are the most important in the vehicle.

Oh I get it now.

So what size speakers/brand are we talking about here? And to get it mounted how much are we roughly looking at here? So what do I do with the ones I have right now? I mean the actual OEM speaker mounts that my front door has right now? Can we use that one? or we need to close those out?

With some work you can get a 6.75" speaker in that area. That opens the door to getting some good component type speakers up front.

Throw up the model #'s of the two amps you have as well. I want to be sure that any speakers / subs I choose for you are going to be a suitable match to your existing equipment.
