Default Need some help

Hey guys need a little help. I have a 2002 trans am with the monsoon system in it and it sounds like crap. I want to swap out all speakers and head unit and put in a 10" sub in a stealth box in the back. I want a good loud clear system that still hits pretty good. Here's my questions:
1. What speaker package from Kees audio should I get?
2. Do I need a new amp to run those speakers or can I use the monsoon amp?
3. If not what's a reasonable and good amp to run those speakers?
4. what's a good choice for stealth box , 10" sub, and amp?
5. Any suggestions on head units( I would like it to be iPhone ready and have a decent size screen)
I would like to stay between $1500-$2000 if possible. I've been trying to call Kees audio and ask him these question so I could just order it right there but haven't been able to reach him. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!

Hybrid Audio Clarus Front components
Hybrid Audio Mirus 6.5 for rear in sail panels.
JL 10w3 Driver side stealth box
Masssive Audio NX5 5 channel amp
Kenwood DDX 419 double din
double din radio bezel
4 gauge amp kit
2 rca cables
GM harness
GM antenna adapter
Shipping
1699.99 shipped

everything is in stock ready to ship but bezel. I would have to make this for you and 3-4 weeks out currently on orders

The 419 will work great with your iphone for a2dp streaming and you will be also able to download either the Garmin GPS APP or MotionX GPS app as well and mirror the iphone to the Kenwood


The Hybrid stuff is VERY nice. I am currently running the Clarus and Mirus in my Corvette

Call me anytime 608 568 3011
We are always there 8-5 M-F to answer phones to take care of everyone's needs.

Gotta tell you guys, Dennis from DoubleDMods is the real deal! Called him up today and he spent an hour on the phone with me answering all my questions and listening to all my request and helping me figure out the best system for my car based on what I wanted. His prices are incredible and I had a tracking number a half hour after we hung up. The Dudes legit! Thanks again Dennis!

Going with:
Kenwood DDX-719 double din
Hybrid Audio Clarus front components
Hybrid Audio Mirus 6.5 in rear sail panels
JL 10w3 in a drivers side stealth box
JL 10w3 in a passenger side stealth box
Massive Audio NX5 5 channel amp

I will post pics after install is done.
