I have to admit I don't know much about the specifics of the equipment needed but in my opinion one of the best places to get an education and often the best price around is right down the street from you, Best Buy. I have bought a lot of stuff from them and while certain brands they sell have been failures I've never had a problem with their Insignia brand.
I am nearing legally deft and so surround sound isn't a big thing for me and I disconnected the surround sound speaker system in the Winnie and I did find a great little amp buried under the dash, can't remember the make and model off hand. The receiver/amp was already missing and the little hang down speakers looked like doo doo all over the place.
The nicest double din we have had, was the Ford factory unit with the built in six CD changer. The DW's Explorer was a 2002 and I did have to remove the unit one time and re-stack the trays for the CDs. Took longer to watch the YouTube video than to do the work.
Now she has a new Explorer with MP3 port, USB thumb drive port and a single CD player. Wish I had kept that old player for the towed.
Best Buy carries a wide variety of car stereos and the sales people are really helpful. In Burbank and Pasadena at least.
