Smile Looking for suggestions/input on equipment

I just got an '04 Screw after trading in my '01 Screw and now I'm ready to get a system for it. I listen to pretty much every type of music depending on how I feel that day. I want it to sound nice and clear and still be able to turn it up on occasion without losing the sound quality. I like deep, low bass.

For head units I'm going to go with Pioneer AVIC-X910BT with the ipod and steering wheel adapters. This will let me get rid of my Garmin and still keep bluetooth enabled on my phone.

I need suggestions on door speakers, subs, and amps. I'm looking to spend a max of around 2k including install if it's possible but suggestions that would be more than 2k are ok as long as they aren't way over it. I'm a college student with a health condition and I only work part-time so I'm trying to keep some money in savings for medical emergencies.

I don't want to have to lift the seats but I am willing to sacrifice the middle backseat for a custom box to "sit" there. Under the seats will also work.

I've read a lot about what mSaLL, Low, and others have said about Image Dynamics and Stereo Integrity being very good quality brands but I can't find anyone in Memphis who sells them so I'm hesitant to buy them but if I just need to do it and not second guess, I will. I just wish I could hear them before buying them. If anyone is in Memphis or within about an hours drive and would be willing to let me come over or meet me somewhere so I could listen to them I'd be very grateful.

You can buy the ID's from supercrewsound, but only with a box purchase. Here is a single 10" box, http://www.supercrewsound.com/commer...dId=9&catId=58 and a dual 10" box http://www.supercrewsound.com/image/Products/109/photo. If you scroll down on each page there is a link to buy the ID's that fit that box.

2k+ is a healthy budget. I recommend you make an account over at www.diyma.com and read a bunch over there, much larger wealth of info regarding sound systems.

Agreed. That place is a big help, causes me to want to spend too much money. But you can pick up some lightly used goods at decent prices a lot of the time.
