That was just the worst of the problems. The door skin had to be replaced due to them putting holes everywhere & they lost the navigationdisks(which are $150 each).


They gon' mess that man car up

 

[spot rusherz]

some 's just need to learn the hard way (pause)

 

[mr monday niight]

Question:

I am replacing my subs that I have. i had a friend who was installer do all the work for me. Now that my subs are blown, Im not sure what kind of subs I wouldneed with the amp I have. The amp is a Phoenix Gold x600.1 . For now I would like to get either 2 -12's or 1-15 if thats possible, without putting a strainon the electrical system. I was considering Kicker, JL Audio or Rockford Fosgate. 2 ohm or 4 ohm? Any suggestions? If I need to upgrade let me know.

That amp doesn't do rated power.

[momoney848]

I just bought a Pioneer AVH-P4100DVD head unit and Rockford Fosgate 12" P2 subs.

I'm waiting to get the M500 and F300 Alpine Amps and I just need some good speakers (anyone have any thoughts on the Alpine Type S?).

 

[mr monday niight]

hope you didn't pay alot for those p2's..this is going in the TL?

 

[momoney848]

I only paid $250 for two 12 inch subs. I thought it was a good price cause I heard em and they sound good. Yeah... they're going in the TL. What do youthink?

 

[mr monday niight]

If you like them then it's all good....what ohm config are they?

Not looking to spend alot of money, just enough to give my car some nice bass.

What would you recommend?

4 ohm. It's these right here

What do you think of the headunit/amp/amp/speakers though? I really don't know anything about car audio... at all

I can use all the help I can get.

If you can return the subs, you should. Not that its a bad setup, but its safe to say that its gonna leave you wanting more bass once you get them in thecar...and there are several single 12s that will get much louder for a little less money. Post your budget and me or MONDAY can help you out.

Well let's see. I'm married to the headunit so that's irreplacable. As far as the rest of the budget...

$260 + $200 + $200 = $660.

It honestly doesn't look like I could get an amp, subs, and speakers for any cheaper than that. My boy at BB is giving me a hookup on all that stuff.

 

[mr monday niight]

Mo...what's the absolute most you're willing to spend?


EveryDayKicks..that's a TINY trunk..i'd stick to 1 good 10" sub..
