Alright, I have NO car audio experience whatsoever. I simply know about guitar amps, and nothing else. So I know I'm about to sound like a moron.

I drive the colorado desribed above, and I'm currently shopping for the best options for a stereo upgrade. In order to get a subwoofer, I need to either install it underneath the back bench, or right behind the centre console. I found a great option for the bench box - http://www.soundoffaudio.com/item.cfm/id/2177 and now I need to choose a sub (the unit fits two 8 inch woofers). At the moment, all of my gear is factory. Both 6-3/4" speakers as well as the mini tweeters in front, plus the factory piece of crap CD receiver. I'm assuming the head is RCA inputs. For my truck, will I need to purchase an amplifier in order to use the two subs? Eventually everything will be replaced, but I'm not sure which to replace first - the deck, speakers, or get the subs installed. The deck will need to be replaced with the custom piece for the GM models post year 2000.

Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks, guys!
