Default car audio noob question

Okay i have recently just got a saxo and this is my first post on these forums and i am asking for some advice/help on my audio system that im going to set up i have already bought a perfectly good headunit but the ordinary saxo speakers are just not doing it for me so i was thinking of getting these for the back speakers http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/pro..._id/13594.html and for the front http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/pro..._id/13597.html and i was wondering if i would need an amp to power these?

the headunit i have is http://bit.ly/hibgIL

i also plan on getting a subwoofer (1000w)

for the speakers your better off getting components, wire the fronts up to an amp.
how much is your budget for the front,rear speakers, amp and sub?

built in amps are just as good, my mate has one.
if you want decent sound from speakers ideally you would amp the fronts up, but as your on a tight budget, finding a sub and seperate amp and wiring kit is very hard

3000 watts is only peak, you will be running 1400-1500 rms.
either of the sub packages will be capable of having the front speakers wired up too, will have a nice little set up. unlike me, im spending 2k on mine lol
