just chuck splits in the front, 6" in the back and a 12" sub in the boot with an amp

chould be able to do that for less than a grand and will sound good for all your rocking out needs

Buy both those sets of splits. And the amp if you're keen to get it cranking.
very good price.

$3-$4k is a nice budget and will get you great sound.
I have some contacts in the audio industry where I can help you get gear considerably cheaper than anywhere else.
And no, I'm not talking Pioneer and Sony stuff (which can RRP for $150, they nock it down to $60 and still profit $30). I'm talking genuine stuff, some of which is hand-made in Germany and the US.

See I hate seeing car audio threads coz then I really want to help people out!
Expect a rough setup to your budget in the coming days Foxy. damn you haha

In the mean time, check www.mobileelectronicsaustralia.com and seach the 'beginners' section to find out lots of simple answers to any questions
PS i have 10k of audio stuff going into my car soon so I know a couple of things if anyone was gonna ask
