I was told - after already buying my sony x-plod that if i wanted something affordable i should get a pioneer sub, which i believe is the same model that Tilly has... and was told they are quite good.
6x9's you should get something decent really... but you can get something decent for about 70 quid.
Head unit - well thats up to you really mate...
I personally dont know much about them, I usually just go for the power rating and what it looks like :D

All of the following is from http://www.mcs-direct.co.uk/acatalog/index.html
Pioneer Head Unit, 2 Pioneer subs, Pioneer 6x9s and 300w pioneer amp.
The total cost of this is ?338 and to be honest i dont see how you can get it much cheaper... because all of these things seem to be quite cheap really.
?95 - Head Unit ... PIO-DEH1530R
?78 - 2 x 12" 600w sub.
?110 - AMP Bridgeable, 4 X 70w or 2x150w or 2x70w plus 1x140w, MOSFET
?45 - Accelerate 3 way 330w max 6 x 9

:twisted: nat :twisted:
you shouldnt of bothered with 6x9s.
its either subs or 6x9s both just causes distortian problems as they are bother trying to produce the same sound in the same air space,
and most makes are better than sony.
