Audio Questions, Im a dumbass and need some explaining Options

[Serhey]

so this isnt necessaraly for now, but i was thinking after i get my interior redone i wanna work on the audio system in my car. and well i know absolutely nothing about that stuff. i mean like what brands are good and what should i look for? what are the sizes and if i buy the right size can i just replace them, im hoping to do this all by myself. i dont think its that difficult its just im so foreign to it that i dont really know what to do and dont want to get ripped off if i try to buy the stuff at a store. i dont want to spend too much but i want a pretty good sounding system. what can i do to get good bass? i dont want to put in subs in my trunk. thanks.

I've been rocking the same Pioneer head unit through 4 years and 3 different cars. It's a Pioneer Premier though, not just one of the base units you can pick up at Wal Mart. I've been through several different subs, and I have to say that my absolute favorite setup has been a 10" sub in the trunk, 300 watt amp, factory speakers (unamped), and the Pioneer head unit. Not too much bass, always enough though. I've been through several 10" subs, a 12", and a 15" Kicker L5. All I can say is stay away from anything bigger than a 12 in our cars if you value your hearing.
