So I have a voucher balance of 450 US Dollars, to an audio market place that has about everything you can think of

BUT I don't know exactly what to get.

I can wire everything myself and figure that stuff out, however As for the product to buy and measuring and stuff I have no clue and I'm mostly incapable of figuring it out :P

It's for a single cab truck, I want to replace the (4) speakers it has, their all stock and one is blown :P, The head unit is stock but I'm not concerned about having features, so other than audio quality, I don't care to replace it since it's expensive.

So here is the breakdown!

I have a budget of 450, I want to replace all 4 stock speakers, and if possible add a subwoofer.

The subwoofer has to fit behind or under the seats (their not power seats so there is room)

And amplifier I can mount anywhere I believe, Or if it comes pre-amplified that's even better!

I want the sound quality to be GREAT! I love bass but I don't love rattles so, I want it crisp and acoustic, much like Bose tends to offer (except their way overpriced)

I want more bass than what speakers alone can provide though, but if it's not possible in that budget, I'm willing to settle for speakers only!


50 FG goes to the person who I think provided a great answer, with links to the products! :)

I don't know much but Subwoofer will certainly help. If you check out my thread, he posted a head unit, 4 speakers and they all came to under $200. They sound awesome but could definitely use a SUB to clear up the sound in the speakers and get better bass. I believe that he will be able to get you a good setup posted for under $450. Also use this, it helps!

1: What is the Year, Make, and Model of the vehicle.
2: What is your budget?
3: What exactly do you want your outcome to be? (Good sounding music, or loud bass?)
4: And specific sub sizes that you prefer more than others?
5: How much trunk space do you want to use up?
6: What type of features are you looking for in a CD Player (aka Head Unit)? (Ex: USB, AUX, BlueTooth, etc)
7: What type of music do you listen to?
8: Is your stock stereo system amplified? (You may or may not know this)
9: Do you have Steering Wheel Controls? (Volume/Seek on the steering wheel)

going to have to get some measurements for possible box locations. behind the seat is usually more spacious than under the seat.

can you be more specific as to who you will be buying from? prices are different all over.
