Default Stereo Advice - Looking for Cheap System (Subs/Speakers/Amp)

I've got a little bit of money saved up, for Rims, some fix-up work, and a System. I'm looking to spend about 350-400 on Subs, an Amp, and Speakers. I've been doing some research on some Audio websites, but some of the numbers and everything just confuse Me because I don't know much about Car Audio. So what I'm looking for is a good bang for the buck setup, I don't need anything crazy like a JL Audio W7 thump, just something that bangs good for the price. I've heard pretty good things about Audiobahn's lower end series', which can be had for 50-60 a sub on some websites. Basically any information would be appreciated, what subs to look for, how big of an amp to push them, and a decent speaker that's not gonna blow up.

Thanks in Advance .

Heres my low budget, high quality, sub suggestion

AURA RPM2300 2x150W MOBILE AMPLIFIER RPM STAGE 2
http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=269-162
$100
450W RMS
This really is a good amp (especially at this price, it is a closeout), very well built, and will produce 450 watts with no problem whatsoever.

Both of the following subs are incredibly accurate (SQ), well built, and affordable. They will blow away the audiobahn offerings in sound quality. Plus they have a 5 year warrenty, and parts express has some of the best customer service I have ever seen.

DAYTON RSS315HO-4 12" HIGH OUTPUT SUBWOOFER
http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=295-466
$104
.7 cuft sealed

DAYTON RSS265HO-4 10" HIGH OUTPUT SUBWOOFER
http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=295-462
$96
.3 cuft sealed

Ebay stealthbox
$50-$70

4 gage wiring kit
$40

Total cost should be between $300 and $350 even after shipping is figured in and I guarentee you won't be disappointed.

i just bought my stereo, new HU and all, with everything, came to a little under 1,000 with shipping.

Go on Ebay is your best bet.
