I know you guys are BEGGING for another Tell me what to buy thread!!!1111111 so here it is.

Quite simple really, I've got a nice Alpine head unit running up front with juicy standard speakers at the front and the back.

My initial thoughts are to spunk £400 on the front, for that I expect to get some decent front speakers and an amp to power them.

I'll obviously want some decentish cabling/kits so try to include that in but not critical.

The back part of the car is undecided/not prioity, as I already have a spare 10" type-r alpine sub and a alpine amp to power it - thats if I even choose to put it in.

Thanks for your time, expect stupid questions.

A set of rainbow comps up front maybe a set of SLX 265's deluxe

And an alpine MRP-F250 bridged to 2 ch

if you really want rear speakers just get some cheap coaxails and run'um of the HU

depending what amp you have for the sub depent on what amp kit you need at a guess a 4 gauge duel amp kit will do

http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/products_id/5123.html a good VFM kit

Wouldnt bother with the rear speakers to be honest.

Get the above comps and stick your sub and amp in and see how it runs. If your not keen then flog the sub and amp and buy something better. At least this way all the wiring will be in place and ready just to connect to the new stuff.

yeah for sure, I've read the argument many times and it seems there is no merit in doing anything in the back apart from maybe a sub.
