I say grammar is more important than a sound system.

Second, you will need:
  • Deck
  • Speakers
  • Subwoofers
  • Amplifier(s)
  • Power Wiring/Fuses/Terminals
  • Speaker Wiring
  • Enclosure for the Subwoofers
  • To learn to type intelligently on this website so that all the guys that *do* know how to do this stuff don't get pissed off and refuse to help you.

I understood you perfectly, I've never been perfect at grammar or spelling either.

But he's given you a good list. All you need is bux $.

Cheers mate. So when you have a 1000watt amp, can you only have two 500watt speakers or less or can you exceed the amp wattage

Many amps of lets say lesser quality will not always give true RMS ratings, secondly you can run an infinite amount of speakers of an amp as long as you run the correct impedance. If your on a budget by all means you can buy front and rear speakers at say 4 ohms, and running them on a 2 channel at 2 ohms per channel.

If your aiming for quality buy a dedicated 4 channel amp and a good mono block to run the sub. Check some sites for prices and post what you find and im sure some members can guide you in the right direction.

^^^^ hey look, a spammer! Really dude, it is simple to read the site rules when one registers. I recommend that you go back and read again so that we can get rid of that nasty "spammer" word that you are associated with.
