Exclamation Audio System Help!!

Sup fellas, I have herd a lot about what a pain it is to upgrade the audio in the Sc300s because of mixed Ohms and amps and what not so I gave it up along time ago and decided to paint it, but know I find my self driving daily wanting to rip the stupid thing out because of the constant skipping and poor quality of music.. not to mention the disc changers annoying sense I get a lot of new cds...

Well to the point I was wondering what sort of setup I should go with to get Good clean crisp highs and mids with a hard hitting bass but over all still keep it sounding clean.

1. What subs/Speakers. Was thinking Polk/Infinity.

2. Ways to ensure that there's absolutely NO rattle nothing kills a car more then that stupid rattling tag, ect. Im not looking for ridiculous bass, But I would like some.

3. Installers?? Or DiY?

SC is one of the easier cars to do audio stuff in. i dont knwo when/where you hear otherwise. you can easily and safely integrate an agtermarket deck into factory amp/speaker system. by passing the amp is also cake.

first you should do a search on SC audio related topics

then wait til this gets moved into the audio section so you get more responses

mainly do a search. this topic has be COMPLETELY covered in the past as far as sizing/compatibility/diy for install.

i have infinity kappa perfect components in the front and reference components in the rear. sounds good. i only got them because i paid like 150 bucks for both sets new.

if it was up to me i would have gotten JL ZX650 components all around. i just installed those in a buddies evo and it sounds amazing. well he had more then just speakers but either way.
