Need Help Car Audio

Hey guys I dont know very much about car audio. Im trying to figure out what kinds of subs and amps to get. If anyone has any ideas could you please let me know. Im looking for pretty good subs and an amp that has enough power to power them. I already have an alpine deck.

Well thanks a lot guys

or...

If you are lacking in the funds department.....

A Lanzar or Legacy bandpass box with 2-12" and a heavy duty amp, for around $450.00. They are a GREAT start, everyone usually starts with something like that. A Kicker setup witha square sub and box prob. around the 8 or 900 dollar mark. Good luck. PM me if you would like anymore help.
