Audio help for a beginner?

Thanks Ron and all the others for the good info. After serious thinking today (long nap) I'm not going to screw around with the cheap stuff. I have the money or will in 2 weeks. I just try to think of all the angles before I buy. With the Kenwood HU that cost me over $600 I honestly can't go cheap on this. I am going with the Hertz HSK 165XL or the HSK 165 depending on how much I spend on amp. I did a install on my last car and went cheap and was never happy. Alpine single din and polk audio coaxials. Always had buyers remorse.
I will take your advise and buy from WoofersEtc. I have always used Crutchfield because they were easy with all the install stuff. I will have to figure out if I need a spacer or adapter for the door speakers. I have the Base unit. Everything else I can handle. It's winter here and I haven't had the z out much but it will be warming up soon and I have a big garage to work on it. Mike
