Alright my 94 ST coupe is all stock. It sucks.

I probabl have around 700-800 to spend a headunit and speakers (subs later).
Suggestions? I'll probably buy off crutchfield or something.

Ive also heard great things about Eclispe head units, but i dont know their prices, and i doubt they are in my range.

Thanks

it looks like if you went with the lowest grade alpine (exactly the same as the eclipse but with detachable face) head unit that played mp3's im pritty sure it runs at about 18watts and then with the alpine v240 (4 way amp) you could run some speakers prob about 4 of em but thats no sub. Sounds like what you want tho that might run you about 300 for head unit 250 for amp and however much u got left for the speakers, i dunno what ur gonna do for install but thats a pritty good setup for the price.
