How much money?

What kind of music?

Are you going to be installing it yourself?

There are conservatively a few hundred combinations of front and rear speakers. If you want to add amplifiers and headends that number is going to climb to ten thousand.

If you like my music, have my ears, and are willing to do the custom installation yourself, and spend the bucks that I spent then I can recommend a system.

Speakers have to be auditioned by the owner! They sound different and it's the most major factor in how your system is going to sound. The electronics sound more or less the same ... the same can't be said for speakers at all. Get yourself to a gathering and listen to other Z owners speakers or find a nice car stereo place and be sure to bring your own CD and be willing to spend the time for some critical listening.

I won't be installing it myself I don't really know alot about how to do it and don't want to screw it up. I'd rather just pay someone to do it right. I'd also like to keep it under 7K. It doesn't have to be the greatest thing since sliced bread just good quality and loud enough.

Errr...for that much, it might actually turn out to be the best thing since the knife that sliced the first loaf of bread....or close enough!

For that much, go to a shop and discuss it with them. Post if you want another opinion on what they recommend. No sense spitting out brands if they don't carry it.
