Girl with Junk (Bump) in the trunk

Ok I'm so new to this, so I may be asking questions that are stupid. Then again they do say the only stupid question is one not asked. I'm currently in the process of upgrading my factory system. I love the bump in the trunk and wanted a little for myself. I wouldn't consider myself an audiophile.
I have 2 12cvr2 in a ported box and a zx750.1. I'm now deciding on my speakers for the mids and highs. Sound quality is important and I want it loud. Maybe Focals, or Infinty Kappas, or anything that sounds great. (Diamond if the price is right) My budget is important, so don't want to spend more than 200 on the component set for the front. (Same goes for rear fill) I have absolutely no clue what amp to get.
My biggest dilemna however is accessories. I;m not sure if they are a neccessity in order for the system and car. (alternators,capacitors,fuses,equalizer,capacitor,batteries)
Any suggestions with substance from people who know what they're talking about and an explanation is appreciated.

If you're running subwoofers the rear fill will be drown out from the bass and pretty much make rear speakers useless in most applications,unless it's a vehicle with a very large cabin I wouldn't even bother changing the stock rear speakers,just tune them with an EQ if you decide to keep them.I don't think you'll need an alternator upgrade but what kind of vehicle are you installing this in?Most systems running under 1,000 watts RMS don't need an alternator upgrade but let us know the vehicle and we can help you a little more.

You don't sound "New" to this at all.


And guys, I'll say it now. SETTLE DOWN! Don't scare her off like the last one.


Don't be afraid girl, we've all had our shots. Ok, maybe not all of us.

forget rear fill unless you want passengers in the back to have full range sound. otherwise rear fill just destroys your imaging for the front speakers.

get a good set of two-way separates for the front, and use kick pods to house them.

amplify them with a decent two channel amp.. about 50-75 watts per channel.

don't worry too much about the charging system unless you experience voltage drops while using the system.

I would personally go with a component set.I'd also google and find out what people are running in the SQ comps and run what band wagons do :-)

For the amp, Latishia, you can get kicker zx350.2 or zx250.2 - both are very nicely priced.

SQ competitors run customized setups.

hard to pick components for someone else.. it's very subjective to what they like in timbre and tone

You do know that there is no such thing as "almost new" right? It's either new or not new.
If you want good quality amp at a low price, try PPI PC or PCX series. You can pick one up on eBay for under $200. I doubt you'll find anything better nowdays for your money.
What does tbell stand for? You into "Saved by the Bell" show?

when it comes to components like Glass said it all depends on what your ears like. I may love focal while you despise them. Go to your local audio store and ask them to listen to a few pairs. If possible ask the installers and shop guys if they have them running in their own personal cars so you can hear them in a real life situation and not on a sound board.

From the last 15 posts, Latishia, you can see that you need a precision power (PPI) amp lol

You may not be able to listen to rainbows locally, so try to listen to as many other sets of speakers as possible. At the end, I doubt you can go wrong with rainbows from what I've read.

Tbell, from last 15 posts, only thing that's of use is to listen to as many component sets as possible and to get a precision power(PPI) amp. At the end though, I doubt you can go wrong with rainbows from what I've read.

you guys are sad. you do realize "tbell" is probably just a guy using a girl's nick to get attention. way to play into that foolishness.

in any event, PPI makes good amplifiers.
I'd skip Rainbow if you're in the US. They've had a wealth of problems keeping an importer/authorized dealer company here.
If you want the same quality, go to madisound.com and look at the SEAS Lotus components.
same thing, different name.

I think you guys are odd. I don't think there's lack of help for dudes out here. If anything, she should not mention that she's a girl just to avoid being asked for pics and then have a controversy as to whether she's really a girl. She's emailed me a few times and I can say she's a girl. This thread's turning into some BS real fast. Tbell, go to that site Glass suggested though.
