I should get a nice check from work at some point in the near future and i am thinking of doing a audio upgrade for the pickup. Is this a decent list or is there better for the same money?

DODGE QUAD CAB 2-10" VENTED

Kicker 07CVR102 (07CVR10-2) 10" Dual 2 ohm CompVR Subwoofer
2 of those
Amazon.com: Hifonics HFi100.4 HFi Series A/B Stereo Amplifier 4 x 100 @ 4 OHMS, 4 x 200 @ 2 OHMS, 2 x 400 @ 4 OHMS: Car Electronics

Pioneer DEH-6300UB CD receiver at Crutchfield.com
EFX 4-gauge Amplifier Wiring Kit Power and signal connections for your new amp at Crutchfield.com
coming to around 700 with shipping?
is that too much? is there cheeper stuff that works as good? is some of the stuff i put in there junk?
700 is a lot to spend so i want some opinions from you guys.
Thank you
Ryan.

I have a kicker cvr sub, and have been very happy with it, 0 problems. Don't have experience with the other items tho, bumping for others to chime in.

I've always had Pioneer head units...you'll like it. Kicker, never personally had any of their stuff but heard great things. Never heard of hifonics.

WE have two of the Pioneer 6300's,1 in my Fiancee's grooming van and her pick up.They both perform flawlessly and have never given us any issues at all.The grooming van radio is in the rear where she works and it ran without any amp and her truck has a J&L Audio amp,suns and speakers.

I have the bigger Pioneer 8300UB in my 2005 truck and LOVE it.
I am running 2 Polk Audio DB1040's in the sub box ran at 2ohms and use 2 Polk DB1000's in the dash for tweeters.In the front doors I run Realm AudioLS69CX 6x9's and in the rear doors I run Realm LS6cx's 6.5" rounds.I have a Kicker ZX700.5 powering all the speakers but the dash tweeters which are ran off the head unit only.

(2) KICKER 07CVR104 10" SUBS+AUTOTEK AMPLIFIER+WIRE KIT | eBay

would this be better than buying that hifonics amp and the 2 10s, and the wiring kit from crutch field.
