![Question](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Okay,
I know nothing about stereos and I want to get a system but dont want to get ripped off so if you guys could help me out a little i would very mouch appreciate it.
First: If i want to run two 12 inch alpine type R's i know i am goin to need at least 1000 watts in an amp. I am confused if this would be a mono amp or a 2 channel amp? Also what brands are the most widely trusted.
Second: How bad do gs trunks rattle? Is it a must to get dynomatt and if so does it stop all of the vibrations.
Third: What kind of component speakers would you recomend and about how big of an amp do you think i will need to run these?
Thanks a lot guys

you may choose a nice set of 4 inch and some soft dome tweets on a 100 watts and it be all you want, whereas i might mount waveguide compression drivers under my dash and 8 inch midbass in the floor and drive 1000+ watts. (

For amps many use JBL. They are very cheap and put out good power for the price. I would not go with Dynomat since it is too expensive. There are many oter things out there that would do the same deadening job and cost a lot cheaper. Speakers is the most important component in your system but since it is your ears and I don't know what sound you like. Go to an audio store and listen to some yourself.

I am going for sound quality and i only listen to rap and r&b, with that being said what brands would you recomend? The dealer i am working with is really pushing boston accustics or JL however i have heard a lot of good things about infinty. which way would you go or is there another comapny i should pursue?

For subs, JL is good. Much better then Bostons or Infinity. If you really want a good cheap quality amp, I would recommend Clarion APX1000.2 That thing is egineered by Robert Zeff (Zapco, ARC Audio) and you can have it for $250 off e-bay.
