No knowledge about AV systems? No problem!

r/BuildaCarAVForMe

This subreddit is made to help people purchase a new car audio/video system for their vehicles, but have no idea where to start, what to do, or are just plain confused on everything other than "I want my music to sound better."

Please be respectful! No hurtful or demeaning comments!
Have fun! This is a place for people with little to no knowledge to interact and ask questions with people who are very knowledgeable on AV systems.
Please use tags in your post title.

[Troubleshooting] - If you are experiencing trouble with your system and you need help!

[Build Ready] - Your system build is ready, but you need someone to check things over and make sure everything is top notch before you spend your money!

[Build Help] - You need someone to help you make a list of things to buy for a new AV system.

Basic Guidelines for Posting a Request:

State what car it will be going in. Not just a sedan or SUV but a make and model.
What are your goals with this system? Sound quality? Loudness? Or a mixture of both?
What is your maximum budget?
What do you want or need? A sub woofer? New door speakers? A head unit? Try and be specific the first time so that we can help you the best way possible.
Any extra info you would like for us to know.
