dunno where to start
i have no idea what to get first. i dont understand car audio stuff and most of the links in the sticky dont work. i got stock speakers and a deck, thats it. what should i get first? speakers? subs? new deck? i dont need anything expensive, just nice but cheap. what do you guys recommend?
i want it crisp and deep. i like my lows.
i listen to hip hop type rap. eminem, tech nine, jedi mind tricks, hopsin, kottonmouth kings, etc.

then you have an aftermarket. if you don't like how its setup, buy a new aftermarket one. then I would say get speakers. I have alpines and I love them. as far as amps, I had a power acoustik 4000w bamf hooked up to 4 10's in my ranger, and it was incredible. the power acoustik amps are great for the price, and you get a ton of power.

id throw that deck out and start fresh pioneer, clarion, kenwood, etc and as for the power acoustik amps zak873 is correct they are cheap and do some good power for the price and so is boss but they dont do rated. i had a boss 3000 phantom and 2 power acoustik **** 12s and hit a 145db on the meter with stock battery, stock alternator and a run of 0 guage wire Good luck

go on some audio forums and ask about power acoustik amps, they put out dirty power and they do not do rated power, im just trying to help get people better equipment

you bash everyone's opinion in every audio thread. just because you think the **** you use is gold, others don't give a ****
Almost any amp played within its non-clipped operating zone will produce clean power, unless something is physically wrong with it. surely clean enough for subwoofer duty. the biggest distortion causing component in any system is the speaker its self. A THD of well over 10% is inaudible to basically everyone. The distortion from a woofer is usually twice that or more. I wouldnt worry about having clean power on anything except my tweeters which are the most sensitive.
I would start with a sub woofer and amp just to fill in the bottom end that you are missing right now. the factory speakers will do just fine if you reinforce them with a sub to give you some impact to your music.
