So what do I have here?

[yz250roost]

So I bought this truck over a year ago and the guy mentioned it had a nice system in it, but I don't know much all I know is it sounds alright. It's all mounted behind the rear seat so I never had a reason to take it off to look at it. Well on the way to work today my subs stopped working. I pulled off the rear seat and found one of the capacitors wasn't grounded well, so I fixed that but took some pics. How old would you say this system is and is it budget, decent or top end?

Here's what I know followed by pics;
Head Unit - Alpine CDE-9852
Subs - 2 10" Audiobahn (setup mono)
Capacitors - Road Rage (Mas Power) 1 Farad 20/24 Volt Surge
Amp - Performance Teknique 1CBM779

Head unit is fine, but the rest is low-low-end.

thanks for letting me know, yeah I looked up some of the stuff online and it seems this system was probably put together for less than 400.00 minus the head unit. What should I focus on first in upgrading? I listen to more rock music so I don't need crazy sub action for rap and stuff. I was also told capacitors are pretty much usless so I guess I could ditch those. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Right, sell them and use the money to upgrade "The Big Three."

What should I focus on first in upgrading?

Front door components, amplifier, sound deadening, etc.

Toss us a price range and we can help you out better.

The Head unit is O.K. I looked at the specs and it only has 2 preouts, which makes a little difficult to run an amp for components and subs.

He could run to Y addapters and do it that way, but it would make it hard to control each amp, since theyre running off of a shared signal.

He could run a LOC, but I dont know that I understand that sort of nonsense when you have an aftermarket radio.

He could buy and run the Cleansweep, or something similar, but those are expensive and he could buy a very nice 880prs or something of the like for that kinda cash.
