It's a decent starter system. The problem is the amp though, that amp will be no where close to being able to push that sub. I'd suggest the Alpine MRP-M500.

That will definitely sound great. I would order this stuff at sonicelectronix.com. The type R on there only costs 130 and free shipping. The speakers will cost about the same. You will need a bigger amp to power that type r, so go with this amp.... http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_11796_Kenwood+KAC-8104D.html Hope this helps.

Great equipment, But keep in mind you need a second amp for your 6.5 Unless your HU has crossover capability. Even if it does. I still recommend a second amp..Your going sound quality right,

The speakers are great and don't need to be amplified although underpowering is what blows speakers they have a relatively low rms value and is almost matched by your head unit. If you do amplify them get the alpine ktp-445. Subwoofer is great but get it in 2 OHM cause that amp which is a good match is rated at 2 OHMs not four like the sub you chose.

great stuff but you need better amplification you need to power the speakers with an out board amp and power the subs with an amp with twice the power
