I would like to install a sound system without using any of the factory wiring. My system will be unique and completely separate from existing equipment.
( I have no problem wiring everything myself )
The only pieces of the puzzle missing are amps and speakers,
My question is. If I want to have a system that sounds better than the stock system, what amp/speaker combination would give me modest results?
(1) I was thinking of a 4 channel amp to drive speakers. how many stock speaker locations are practical to use?
(2) How many speakers should I try and use? I probably would want to run a small sub /amp along with the 4 channel.
(3) Is a 4 channel enough to run more than 4 speakers?
(4) If I can use stock locations, this will save valuable space, since space is a concern.
(5) I like all kinds of music, but my roots are from rock/blues/jazz
I would like to keep this as simple as possible with results somewhat better
than stock. The stereo is not the most important objective here, but I do enjoy nice sound.
My budget would be limited, but I need to come up with a range to spend for this project
Thanks

Some equipment suggestions from the pro's here would be appreciated.
