Advice on purchasing amp + sub(s)

[YarisSedan]

I have 2 of these installed in my rear deck right now. Sealed the trunk so it acts as the sub box i loose no trunk space and hits atleast as hard as 1 ten.

Then using a kenwood 2 channel amp to power them 200 watts a channel they really sing. Makes the interior and mirror rattle like crazy but outside the car its not too bad

My advice is get a 4 channel amplifier to power your front components and ditch the passive crossover and go full active it will sound way better. Then get a cheap 2 channel amp for the subs. If you match the power correctly to your components you can have a budget system that sounds nearly as good as competition setups for a fraction of the cost.

This subwoofer amp combo - 147

Thats total of only 357 dollars for a very decent sounding system. The leftover money goes into finding the deck that you like that has the right preouts

Something like this is economical

Id run your door speakers on the front channel rear channel for your front tweeters on full active crossover this deck has built in high and low pass filters already, then you have 2 output for your 2 rear subs. Also has seperate sub control with lot more options so its a very good value.

Thats a total of 466 for a killer system.

It leaves a little leftover room in your budget to cover install/wiring kit. The kenwood amp is side vents so you can install it under your seat for a clean install.
