New sound system

First of all high to everyone here! I have a 04 Lariat Supercrew my question is do you think the pioneer gm5300t for two 10 inch pioneer shallow mount subs and gm4300f amps along with pioneer ta6872r speakers front and back door speakers with a clarion max385vd would give me good sound ? I'm not looking to enter any contest just something to easy the ride to work and hunting lease. The subs are rated at 200rms amp 125rms door speakers 40rms amp 40rms. Do you think the amps would fit behind the seat also where are you guys relocating the jack?Thanks in advance for any help I can get the whole setup for $940 from etronics.com

Itll do okay... I think you could do a lot better, especially getting away from Pioneer (its not bad, but there is better for the $). But if it makes you happy, cool and it will work...

Keep in mind, you also need Power wire, spk wire, RCA's and a remote wire.

I think you will do ok with all that stuff. Pioneer makes some exceptional items and some items that are just average. I would recommend going with a 6 1/2" component set for the front doors. I have the Pioneer Premier 720PRS components in the front doors of my '08 supercrew. They are amazing. If cost is an issue, pioneer has a cheaper component set, the D720s for $110 on sonic electronix. I use RF power amplifiers with a 12" pioneer shallow sub. I am taking the sub back today to try out an RF shallow. The pioneer sub just isn't meeting my expectations.

Thanks Low e Red, and braudtor I'm just looking at products that I used back in the early 90's I have been out of the loop so long but like any high you keep going back. My thing is with three kids budget plays a lot into it. One local stereo shop wanted to do everything but with autotek amps for 1300 just not sure and all so I want to get my hands dirty again.

I noticed where Best Buy has a Pionner DVD HU for like 249.00 ( 100,oo ) Off ????????
I got a sony 10 inch under my seat and it thumps pretty good.. I would say Pionner is probly the best for your money... I have had alot alot alot of pioneer product over the years and they always seem to last..
