Default Audio help

I'm looking for a decent system. Want some nice bass but I'm not trying to bang the block or anything. Just something I can enjoy.

I'm looking at this HU http://www.crutchfield.com/p_130P310...IER+DEH-P310UB

These speakers: http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...roductID=17564

I just need some help with what kind of amp and subs should I go with?

10's? 12's?/ mono amp or 2-channel amp. budget really isn't an issue. but I'm not really trying to have crazy bass, something nice and clean that hits hard.

any help is greatly appreciated.

If budget is not that much of an issue I would recommend an alpine Head Unit, I had A CDA 9886. if you are hooking up subs i would recommend that the HU Have 3 preouts(front,rear,sub).

The selection of speakers is great I had them in 6.5 in front(are you gettin them for doors and rear)Recommend an amp for those(Alpine MRP-F300 would be great for them)

If you want some nice subs without a whole in wallet get a pair of JL Audio w3(a w7 be awesome but $$$$$$). any equivalent Alpine or JL amp will work great!!!

or a hifonics amp is not expensive. w3 would be a nice bump for your truck. w7's would really be nice but like jaws said they are very expensive but the sound you cant "beat"
