Set-up f/ bass songs [rnb, hip-hop...]

hey ppl...
i have just got a car, its a Nissan X-Trail [for those who doesn't know... it's like a Honda CRV], and i need advices on the sound system. I am planning on spending about $1000-$1500 and i am chasing over an SQL but rather to the SPL. So... any recomendations?

Btw i need the following information:
1. HU
2. Speakers
3. Sub woofers
4. Sub enclosure
5. Amplifiers

Thanks ppl.

Edit.
I usually listens to the deep and 'vibrated' bass [not the tight bass] i am using this for personal use but I might be going abroad in less than a year, so... i need the stuff that's going to sell as highly as i bought it [or at least stays 'in' for the next 3-5 years].

Well....
Avalanche 18 $399
2 Hifonics BX 1000D's $229 each (onlinecarstereo.com no warranty)
RE XXX 6.5's (go to Soundillusions.net, become a member, and but a pair for around $130 in the group buy)
JL Audio Tweets $100
Pheonix Gold X100.4 $340

so thats... $1430 and it will cost $50-100 to build a basic enclosure and all. nothing fancy. you may want to look into a deep cycle battery and Altinator when powering two BX1000D's.

Umm.. I forgot to mention that i dont live in the states or anywhere near that so... it is going to be hard to find those [Avalanches and RE]. So.. Fryman, could you give me another reccomendations? Maybe a more 'broad' and 'well-known' products? [Kicker, MTX...]
I might be aiming at SPL only though.. as I am going to put design first, rather than quality.

How's these for SPL?
Focal - 165 A - 6 1/2" midbass, max power handling : 120w
$150

Kicker L7 8" - 8” 450W RMS DVC
$200 x 2
$400

These were the items I have looked for [I live in an asian country and i am having a hard time looking for the reccomended items].
The reason on why I'm having 2 Solobaric L7 8" is that I have a design on my mind to stack both of the sub and place it on the arm rest at the second row. Is this a good idea? And remember that I am aiming for a design and placed quality on second matter. Any more reccomendations and comments?

ohhh, hmmmm... Well shipping may be a little more but RE ships al over the world, though you may not be able to be a part of the group buy. if you dont care abot SQ all too much then what you listed above is fine. it still may not get as loud as Acendant audio Avalanche (actualy two l7's may get loduer if properly powered) but it will be cheaper. shipping a 35lb woofer across seas wont be cheap. ill go back and work ya up a system with main stream stuff. 1500USD.

Even if he did go with the XXX6.5's and JL tweets...he'd still need a Crossover (good one, with bandpass ranges, low pass, high pass, more than one of each) AND a good EQ! (need to think about that with yourself as well...ain't cheap! )

Re: Set-up f/ bass songs [rnb, hip-hop...]

true. ive decided on RE componets instead. 2 sets. one to hold me off (being purchased through the group buy on sound illusions) and one after i get my xxx. as far as the EQ goes. you mean the bass/trebel controlls on the OEM head unit arent good enough? lol.
i will be making some (hopefully) carbonfiber kick panels to match the OEM carbonfiber trim. and i will post lots of pics. in your experence where is the best place to aim kick panels? some say the opposite A pillar but ive had better experences with between the rear view mirror and just behind the passengers head.
