OK, instead of me pinning about 68,415,976 topics about stereos, I figured to put up a thread with basically all the references I go off, if I can't answer questions on my own knowledge.
If there is anything I have left out... by all means, either shoot me a pm or post up here and I will amend the thread ASAP.
I hope this proves to be of great benefit to all those curious about sound in their vehicles.
