The bohemi
what are they i plan on getting some subwoofers? and whats the best brand?
Answer
a car audio system isnt just subs. theres the head unit(cd player), speakers, subs, and amps for the main parts, more advanced systems include things like a capacitor and stuff.
the pros are you get a lot better sound with less distortion and its a lot louder.
im not sure what your spending limit is or what kind of car you have to know what size speakers u need but heres a basic setup guide to go for.
1. get a decent head unit. cd player, if you burn cd's go for 1 that plays mp3's then you can fit 100+ songs on a disk
2. get some good speakers. go with a component set up front and a set of 2way or 3way in the back.
3. from the sound of it you dont care about bass that can rattle house windows 2 blocks away so go with a set of 10" or 12" subs. go with something like polk, you can get really good prices, they sound really good and you dont need a huge amp to power them so you wont need to upgrade ur alternator and stuff. something like these

4. get an amp to match the subs. like if you went with the subs above that are 400watts rms you would want an amp that is 800watts rms. go with a mono amp for the subs. those subs are 4ohm so you can wire them together and take it down to 2ohm so get an amp that is 2ohm stable. as long as you stay below the total rms of the subs you'll be fine, some subs can handle more but you can risk blowing them.
5. an amp for your speakers will get them more power, but you dont have to do that you can just run them off the head unit and they will be fine

Getting new Car Speakers?
james r
How much would it cost to get a new set of speakers and stereo in a 1999 ford explorer. My speakers sound terrible, fuzz, and i cant have any bass in my music or it sounds awful... can anyone point me in the right direction? i need something with an ipod plug in.
Answer
I personally love the pioneer product. Since you're in a ford (I believe) you need a double din radio. Here's an example of one...

That has an ipod hook up which will charge it as well as play your music. Itd be really nice.
As far as speakers go, I'd go for pioneer or alpine as I have had the best experience with them. They're not too expensive either but they'll last a while. If you want bass in your music but don't want a sub, definitely get some three way speakers. They're more expensive, but they have extra bass capabilities and make a HUGE difference in the sound quality. If you go to best buy, they'll guide you through the whole process but definitely get three way speakers.
If you go really nice on almost everything, probably you'll spend 5-6 hundred dollars. I wouldn't recommend spending too much less than that lest you have a system that goes out on you shortly after you put it in.
