I'm new to the car audio scene and need some serious advice on setting up a solid system in a midsized truck. I have done a little research and have come up with a basic plan for a system it's pretty standard i guess. 2, 10" subs in the back, a set of component speakers, balanced line adapter and of course an amp and head unit (preferably a 5-10 disc changer). My problem is i don't know which brand names are the most reliable for the money, or which components/accessories will help boost the power of the system. Some advice on what company to go with and some set up ideas would be awesome, and I will spend a little extra to get quality stuff.

CDT audio - components, about the best components
Alpine - subs (type R) HU (you can get models with time correction!) amps (a class D with digital crossover and time correction) components (the type R's again)
Focal - components, the best components
JL audio - ask everyone else, cause they own it too...
Infinity / JBL
Adire Audio- they make a sub called "shiva" that you may be interested in.
Elemental Designs, thoguh i've heard a disturbing report about the dustcaps ratteling...
Pheonix Gold - amps, subs, and component speakers
A/D/S - subs, components
Eclipse - HU and the subs
Morel - speakers of all kinds
Rainbow - expensive
Crystal Mobilesounds - components, cheaper but good
PPI - amps. big amps.
