Ummmmmmmmm I don't even know where to start. If you are just looking for a little more bass and i mean like a richer sound I would go with Memphis. They have a bottom line called Street Edge and you can get a 10 and 200 watt amp for way under 250. Just find a car audio place that sells memphis and they can get it for you. Get their prices and post them and I can tell you if they are any good because i know the cost. But if you want to the person next to you to know that you have a system get about 500 w rms and if you want them to hear you two cars away get a 1000 w rms system. By the way make sure you know the difference between rms and peak

If cost is not a big issue check out the JL stealth box with 10" sub. It fits nicely and sounds clean and can handle some decent power (they seem to be fairly underrated). I know someone with the MTX loaded box and i belive he has a 250 watt amp from MTX with it. Sound alright considering the cost.

Go with Rockford 10 inch subs,and a rockford 801x amp.I'v had mine for like 2 years and they are pounding all the time and have never blown them.Make sure that whatever size sub you get you will need to get a box that the subs are made for.Each sub will say how many SQ. inches of box space you need.For 10 inch subs you will need 12 SQ.inch box per sub.

If you are going to use the door speakers than you are going to want to have another amp to power the door speakers and a seperate amp to power the subs.You will aslo need to get the 16 gage cable set up.It will come with all the wire and a 60 amp fuse.if you dont use a 16 gage power cable you will over heat the wire and start blowing fuses.I think its called Monster cabe,its for up to 1,000 watts.You can get it at walmart for 50 bucks.
