Nah man you can get a decent set up for that much.

Here's how much everything cost me so far, granted I got some steals and deals.

9887-$200 Normally 300-400

Comps-$100 Retailed 350, got brand new

Alpine F250-$90 Was like 200 normally I think

Sundown 1500-$250 Great deal on this, 2 year warranty 5 days of use, used these go for 350, new 570

Then random install wiring and stuff.

Sub I would have got was Less than 400, almost jumped on an OG SSA ICON for $160

That right there was $640, plus cost of sub even at 400 would be 1040, build your own box and install and that's about 1100. If I went with that ICON itwould be 800+ box + install misc.

Granted those were some good deals but everything was bought off the net, no friend hook ups and I think that is pretty good. Not the greatest comps and amppowering them but hey work with what you got.

that 1500d was used though..granted it was only 5 days..still a used product..what are the odds of finding a 9887 for 200 now? pretty slim..

If i were on a real strict budget this is what i would get

considering gully already has a hu

Typical price finding a 9887 would be 250-300. And it really wouldn't matter at all about being used for 5 days I got Jacob to put the warranty in my namewhich has 20 months left on it and even if it didn't have a warranty Sundown's are almost bulletproof, so I wouldn't be hesitating. All I'msaying is it is possible to put together a legit setup for not that much $$, don't need to buy a $$$$ box either. Fishers are as good as they get but Iwould be hesitant to drop that much on a box.

If you shop around you'll find deals. but i doubt he's gonna get anything really good for 1000. like i told spotrusherz, spend the extramoney now on a setup you can take with you from car to car.
 
Yeah I definitely agree.
What is your setup right now? I'm still not sure what I should do I've been dying to get a sub and set this up in my car but I don't want anythingto get messed up.
 
i'm subless right now since i'm saving up for a xcon.. but so far i have id xs 65 and a alpine 4.150..gonna bridge them so they'll get 300 per side

I was gonna do 2 btl's on 2 3000ds but i don't have the space for it and upgrading the electrical would cost too much..
 
Definitely a good choice with the xcon, I was waiting for that ever since the protoype came out last summer.What are you pushin it with? And how are thoseID's I've never heard them in person.
I'm thinking I might just sell of what I've got make a little $$ from it then put in a nice system in my next car I gotta take a pic of my situation inthe trunk, it's got me so ticked off.
 
Damn I need to check them out maybe get me a set of those.
Sundown 3000 is where it's at, post up some pics when you get it all installed.
 
I did until you told me the ohm config. you won't find a cheap amp that'll do 600@ 3 ohms..and your electrical won't be able to handle 1.5 ohms
