Default Alpine Setup

Okay Guys I know this might sound strange but I want to go all Alpine. But the thing is im trying to think of how to power the Type Rs i am about to get. Should I get a different brand amp and what amp do you guys recommend. Also when I get a new hu should I just shell out the extra for a 4 channel amp and at the same hookup all of my speakers with better guage. I dont have the car yet but I am planning to get a great install thanks.

Go to alpine-usa.com and work with their "system builder" to get their recommendations for matching components.

In 19 years of Alpine systems ownership I have no problems to report. You may be able to find better specs for the money, but this is pretty solid equipment. You get what you pay for.

YES. (...or 4.1)

PS: Also plan on installing a power antenna as the stock Audi antannas don't work well with aftermarket units.
