I got roughly 1200[US] to spend on my equipment.
I need a;

- head unit,
- 1 12'' sub,
- sub amp,
- 1 set of 6.5'' components,
- component amp.

And ebay is not an option, i'll mostly be buying these stuff from online stores.

I'm after SQL. But i dont want to sacrifice loudness for SQ.

I have an 03' corolla.

Dang, no ebay huh? You'd probably save a couple hundred total using ebay... money that could be used to buy even better stuff.

Alpineuser has the right idea, if you want good SQ but don't want to loose SPL then try www.ikesound.com they carry alpine. I got my MBQuart components from there, they are good and cheap there. but instead of running 2 alpine amps like alpine user said, alpine makes a 5 channel amp (MRV-F450) that will suit your needs perfect, it puts out 50 watts rms x 4 for your cabin speakers, and 200 watts rms for your sub. use a type r with it, it will be a little under powered, but will still sound amazing and save you a good chunk of change. for cabin speakers i'd recommend MBQuart components, in your case probably the discus line. Since you the amp I recommended put out 50 watts rms.

This is what i got so far,

Sub- eclipse ti[389]
Sub amp- jbl gto1201.1[329]
Comps- perfect 6.1[229]
Comp amp- jbl gto75.2[200]

Total- 1147

I could probably use my old HU for the time being until i get more money later on.

I dont want to buy a system and then a couple of months down the road, i get tired of it and want sumn bigger or better. I think this system would hav me content for a while lol.
