    Bos para sa super budget setup mo. I would suggest Akai front component speaker 2500 petot. Pioneer rear g series mga 1200 petot ata. Lightning lab 4100s amp 4ch mga nasa 3700 petot. 10 inch second hand sub ported mga nasa 3000 petot. Wiring kit mga nasa 1000 petot. Estimated 11400. Headunit pa... baka may mas cheaper pa jan bos.

    take it from a fellow newbie. mostly mga expert dito sa Tsikot and sa KAC will tell you pag gusto mo step by step and limited budget ka is to:

    1. deaden your doors, pag di kapa satisfied
    2. buy a cheap aftermarket sep. targa has good feedbacks. pag di ka pa satisfied
    3. add ka amps. preferable 4channel just in case mag dagdag ka nang sub in the future. now pag di ka pa rin satisfied
    4. add ka na sub.

    or you can go to any reputable shops. Tell them your budget ans see what gears they can come up with.

    hope that helps

    the most immediate upgrade on your system will be coming from your speakers. if you change the stock with targa which cost probably less than 2k, the sonic character will change and it might even appear cleaner sounding than what you had before. deadening is a very tricky part, and not everyone will appreciate this upgrade immediately. in deadening, it is like building a solid rigid enclosure around your speaker rather than just adding weight on your doors. when done right, midbass response should improve.
