Audio Setup Questions

Hey guys
need your opinion on this. imlooking to get a new system into my car, so please help me out..
The subs that i own are rockford fosgate T215D4, dual coil 4 ohm, 1000 watts rms.
They are 2 fifteens.
so for the amp for these i dont know what to go with, that will drive the max power out of these subs, the only thing i have in mind is the JBL GTO 1201.1, 1 amp per sub. what you think?
i need speakers for the doors and back, i was told to go with Infinity Kappa Perfect, but i dont know and im looking for good treble and a little bit of bass when i turn off the subs. and amp for those speakers would the JBL GTO75.4 be sufficient?
Im also planning on putting indash, headrest, and sunvisor screens.
i knwo i need a cap but how many farad? what about a battery and alternator. I was suggested to go with 40 farad cap, and i wouldnt need an alternator. dont knwo if that is wise.
Hopefully some of you guys can hlep me out with this. THANK YOU

Forget the rear stage, keep it stock or take it all out. Get the best front stage you can afford that will mathc the power output of that amp you have.

look at focal, cdt, a/d/s...

40 F cap :O No need, get another batt and/or a alt.

for the woofer amp i would try us amps unless you already have the jbls
and for the electricals make sure you start off with a good battery,and then get the proper capacitor .

thank you for the quick reply,
when you say US amps, is this one sufficient? USA-2000X? for both of my subs?
im guessing i should go with 0 gauge wiring. and i might need a distribution block?
so what speakers, i want to change all 4, some components? pls give me models for the speakers/tweeters/components.

well, This is my opinion, First off I would do the "big 3" get a better battery(yellow top, or just about any deep cycle that will fit) and then for speakers, Infinity kappa's are amazing, clean and loud!!. I agree with 16768, no need for rear fill, I found that with a really good bass setup that rear fill is more of a hinderance then a good thing!! As for amps, the jbl's are a great amp, but there are better for your application! Since your subs are dual 4 and can take alot more then 1000wrms each(Trust me, I owned 2 12" and ran about 2700wrms to each) I would suggest going the 2 amps route, one per sub! Also The jbl 75.4 would be sufficenet
