Need Advice: Starting Project
OK, here's my plan, but I need some guidance because I've never messed with an audio system. My plan is to get some nice component speakers for the fronts, a new head unit that is ipod friendly (do some even charge your ipod while they're connected? and I can do without a CD slot), and an amp to power the speakers. Would it be possible to also amplify the rear speakers with the same amp, or would that sound bad with the stock rears (bose...). Could I leave the rears disconnected and rely on the front components, or would that not be sufficient? Im not a big bass guy, so I dont need any subs.
So, any advice with what goodies to buy or what setup would be best would be greatly appreciated. Im a newbie at this audio stuff so help me out! Thanks

...before you get flamed for not "searching" blah blah blah....
Do the following-
-headunit
-Scosche wiring harness (made for the bose system you have)
-decent amp
-nice components (don't cheap out here)
-wicked CAS door boxes ---> http://www.wickedcas.com/product.php...0&cat=8&page=1 <--- these will let you get the full sound out of the components
Good luck sir!
Edit: Almost forgot.... forget about the rear speakers!!!

If you don't have the Bose system and you haven't done anything to your rear speakers then I am pretty sure you wouldn't have the Bose speakers. The non-Bose systems run with Clarions i believe, which are just as bad as the Bose... if not worse. I would just disconnect the rears, I am also upgrading my system and plan on dropping the rears.

If you need help finding the correct wiring harness you can go on sonicelectronix. When you pick out a headunit it will ask what make and model the car is and then find the correct harness.
