Will my 1991 corolla have enough power to run a stereo, 4 speakers, 2 subs, and an amp. I was told that it might not work. And also what is better for speakers, Alpines or Rockford Fosgate?

1. maybe
2. generally alpine, depends on the models being compared

depends on what amps you will run
out of those two, alpine...but there are much better speakers out there for less money.

Put it in and see. Worse thing is you'll need to reground and bigger alternator.

1. If the alternator is putting out more amps than you are using (car & stereo combined) then you will be good, if not you will have to upgrade your alt.

2. IMHO you cannot base speaker decisions on the brand name alone - the only way to compare speakers is to hear them side by side. I like the sound of the Infinity Reference over the Rockford - whatever the top-o-line is, and some people think otherwise.
