Default need advice on a system...help

Ok, admittedly I know very little about the audio end of things when it comes to my vette(97)...My thing is engine mods but now I want to totally do the audio setup...I need all your help on this...

I really like as my core, the PIONEER NAVSYSTEM900s/DVD...I think I can get a good deal on it(any advice on a better price?..I can get it for about $1500)...now......what else do you recommend to go with all that..no real worry on price of things so feel free to give me your advice on it...amps, speakers, box, etc etc etc...thanks alot for any and all help with this! calling the experts! :thumbs:

No Price?
Focal utopia 3 way front
Focal utopia 2 way rear
Focal utopia for center channel
JL 12w7 sub
McIntosh amps
Smile while you pay the $5000 on parts. Good stuff though.
Also check A/D/S seperates and amps
Rainbow, MB Quart QSD and QM, Dynaudio Seperates
IDMAX sub
Hope you get some ideas. If you want to spend more, let me know.
;)

Does the $3000 include the head unit? Install? What other options do you want to add?
Sub?
Changer?
Center Channel?

You get the idea. With a video setup, it makes a center channel feasable but not easy.

I'll try to give you some good ideas with some addtional info.
