I have the stock Bose system in my SE, and I like it well enough, I am just looking for something a little more. I was thinging about an amp and a subwoofer. Can I get just these on the stock speakers or will I run into issues? Also, what is a good amp and subwoofer to use? Sorry guys, don't know too much about audio. Thanks.

 

well if u tell me how much you want to spend and if your more into sq (sound quality) or spl (sound pressure level) ill give ya some suggestions on sub amp combos. and you'll be fine running it with stock speakers.... untill you want it louder that is

 

I didn't want to spend too much money, but I want good sound quality, with some bass (not too much). I'm looking for something pretty basic I guess, but I want it to be good quality. HU, amp, subwoofer(..s) is all I really plan to do, if I even need that much.

 

allright if u have the bose system u will have to buy a $50 converter from best buy but i've heard rumors that u can bypass it somehow so i'll get back to ya when i learn more. for headunits i would look into either alpine clarion or pioneer. i got my clarion 835 off thezeb.com and it was $219 shipped. i would definately recommend the cd player a lot it has 4 volt preouts, auxilary input, motorized faceplate, 700+ colors, mp3. for subs and amp i would look into one 12" alpine R dual 4 ohm(around $100) and a jbl 300.1 (around $140) and wire it to 2 ohms. if u want to be able to upgrade later on u could get a dual 2 ohm alpine R and a jbl 600.1 and wire it to 4 ohms and then when u buy another alpine R, wire them to 2 ohms. for wires i would buy the 4 gauge kit off knukonceptz.com, very high quality kit and cheap, like 35 bucks. finally youd have to buy a box and its up to you how much u want to spend on that. i could get u a fiberglassed box to fit in a corner of your trunk and painted any color for around $150. or you could always make your own. that is about the cheapest good system i could think of but if u need more suggestions or if you want to spend a little more just get back to me i got plenty of ideas. later

 

Thanks a lot. I have hear good things about Alpine, and I was looking into going that route to tell you the truth. This sounds like what I am looking for, right price range too!
