I see so many kids that spend a bunch of money cause X brand is hot. They buy it cause of X features that they dont need and alot of them dont even know what it is or how to work it.
Well I have many years of experience to bring to the table. There is a whole lot to it, its hard to sum up in one thread. Perhaps if the thread was pointed in specific direction, I can provide more insite

Very true. My first amp I bought was a LA (Lightning Audio) B-series amp... and it's still in the box. After I bought it I did some research and found that they were not the best.

OK I will stop pimping the PANASONICS. But whatever brand you choose please wait for the digital version to come out. SMALLER audio companies will soon follow with their copy cat versions. YOU WILL SEE.
CIRCUIT CITY will soon stock the new digital powered PANASONIC CQ-C9901U, CQ-C9801U, CQ-C9701U. Let your ears be the judge.

Since PANASONIC sucks. What is the best head unit and matching speakers for the F-Body? I would like to get rid of the rear hatch back speakers and use only the front door and rear seat subwoofers.

Ok. If it's advice or a "Click here for Help starting out" thread it's a bit hard to get specific in one area. I'll have to agree that this is a general thread that is kind of hard to come up with one direction. That is why I'm looking for any and all advice that might pertain to someone with little or no experience other than sitting in someones car or talking to a salesman.
OK. I think maybe a break down into areas like this will help.
1.) amps
2.) speakers
3.) Wiring
4.) etc....
I'll write up a list while I'm hidding from my boss here at work. I need the distraction.
If you have an idea that falls along this line, List it like
"Amps"
Connect Ground after connecting Power (so the chasis isn't hot) and Remote last.
stuff like this will help out.
