Sorry for all the questions but this stearo stuff is all new to me. I guess I'll just start with replacing speakers as money becomes available. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you.

I bought the Infinity Reference 1062w 10" sub through Amazon. It was only $58 with free shipping! I'm not going to claim in any way that it was the best as I don't have anything to compare to. It fit perfectly in the ******** box, adds enough bass to my system but not the BOOM, BOOM, that you hear from some cars. I don't care for that. I cant help with the ohm question sorry. The amp replacement was the biggest improvement to the stock BA system IMO. There is enough "tunabilty" to get the power and sound the way you want/like it. I'll post my thoughts on the front speaker replacement once I get the install done. As others have stated it makes a big difference as well.

I'm running the 700/5 in the vert with a separate amp for the center channel. It does a fine job if you are ok with not thundering bass for 1/2 the city block.

lutey48. i am looking at new 13 vert. i thought those came with 8 inch sub by the back seat. this car is a 2LT with BA system. does it not have seperate amp already with the car. i thought the sound seemed ok during test drive, much better than the lower grade units in 1 LT and coupes dont even come with a sub from factory. thanks

Doesn't the 700/5 have a channel for a sub already? Or isn't it powerful enough to run a sub. Like I say this is all new to me.
