ok as far as amp u can go with a 4 channel bridge 2 channel to run sub and use other 2 to run front comps. Or you can go with a single 2 channel amp for the front and a mono for the sub. Or you can get a 5 channel amp gives u 4 channels to run comps if ever wanted to add a second comp set and with the 5th channel its a dedicated sub channel so either way will wrk. Since you got extra money now id go with a better amp (PG use to be good but its not the 90's anymore) it will do no where its rated power.

http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=6035

http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=6099< not as good quality as ones above but will do rated power at said volts

cheapest i would go would be theses amps.

if u can get them for 50$ then i would cant be 50$

i like jl audio. you can get a stealth box with the 10"sub for about 250. then hop over to ebay and get the 5 channel amp for aobut 300 and also you can find last years or the year before speakers for 125 per set then the hu is up to you. or save for the hu and get the avic-d3 or (just bought it, the avic-z2) from pioneer

or "f" it and it all on ebay even the wheels! it's tough, 1k isn't alot to play with

Alright my new list consists of:

For the components: http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=4609 -$160
For the HU: http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=5468 -$500
For the amp: http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=6035 -$320
For the subs: Two 10' JL audio subs from my cousin -$50

That should be about $1030 not including the cot of the box and wire and stuff.
Anything else i should know/need

All sounds good to me if u want cheaper you can go with the lower grade cadence amp it will do its rated power (which is more then the one you have picked) but quality is not as good but should last for many years if treated right.

p.s need to find out what indo the jl's are!

i just wish my dad wouldve given me that. i had to buy my car and had to run withouth a/c and radio after both went out without a cent from parents. must be nice.

but i would save up some more for an avic d3 hu and then the rest.
Just took a look at that screen and for the price its amazing. pm me after you get it and let me know how it is

So i guess ill go with the cheapercadence amp if you say it will work good disturbed.
But Googles prices are making me wonder about the HU.
Do you think the Avic-d3 will have much better sound quality than the panny.
Is it worth the extra 100 or so with nav that i will never use and a slightly smaller screen.

i gotta get my ordering done this week so that i can get and install the stuff next week
by the way i have no idea what the JLs are model indo? or any thing just that they handle 800 watts max all my cousin told me but i trust him hes a nice guy

well im sure they prob are 800max which would be 400rms most likely but u need to see if there dvc or svc (vc = voice coils d= dual and s=single) and what indepence they are so you can see what kinda power they will see from this amp. as far as hu idk i dont have a fancy one mines damn near 2 years old (pioneer) so i guess u get whatever looks best to you and look at the options you most want.

Please ignore any posts that involve sony and the words good or overrated.

HU - http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=4951$209

Front Comps - http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=3341$200

Comp Amp - http://www.edesignaudio.com/product_...roducts_id=373(B Stock FTW) $165

Sub - 2x http://www.edesignaudio.com/product_...products_id=31(Dual 4 ohm) $200

Sub Amp - http://www.edesignaudio.com/product_...roducts_id=373$165

Total of $965 which leaves you some dough for box construction and wiring.
