Silver Member Username: Usask8er1Appleton, Wisconsin USA Post Number: 432 Registered: Jun-05 | Maybe this is a bad question but in a pricerange of 1300 why were those the only systems you could think up? I dont mean it in a bad way but are like 100s of other options in that range. Now do you just need amp,subs and box or what is it you all need for 1300? |
New member Username: Feelit3Post Number: 5 Registered: Oct-06 | well because i was offered by some people: $1000 i can get two alpine 10" X's with two 600w amps, installed. and for $1300 i can get two Diamond D6's, headunit,box,installed,800w amp. I dont know much about car audio so i came here seeking help. just please help me find the best i can get for my money. :-) |
Gold Member Username: DrsmithMontana USA Post Number: 1500 Registered: Nov-04 | its late im tired and for the money L7's get dam loud as do the AQ's but they sound better i also figured he might need a bigger alt and a decent battery a 1/0 awg kit, a box, maybe a H.u maybe a car alarm and all the other little costs that come along with car audio |
Silver Member Username: RiskybPost Number: 292 Registered: Feb-06 | I would so go with Diamond any day over alpine. Loud with great SQ. What kind of specific headunit and what kind of subs and all that? Watch, I bet like 9 people reccomend audioque to you lol. Its the new bandwagon product. For 1300$ if you bought all the stuff yourself, you could have a dope system. What are the individual prices for everything you are buying? You may want to buy all the stuff off the net or something and pay to have it installed so you get the most bang for the buck. Heres a diamond system with internet prices Diamond Audio D61500.1 Amp - 420$ shipped 2 Diamond Audio D6 15 inch subs 400$ shipped Eclipse CD3000 H/U 220$ shipped Materials to build a box to Diamond Spec. 50$ Then the other 210$ left over to have it all installed or w/e. Much better bang for the buck than what they offered you for the same price im sure. |
Silver Member Username: RiskybPost Number: 293 Registered: Feb-06 | That amp would power those subs perfectly btw 1500 watts at 1 ohm. Much better than the 800 watt amp they quoted you with. |
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1474 Registered: Jan-06 | ddaudio.com get a 3512 or 3515 whatever you can fit. then put it on a kicker zx1500.1 |
Gold Member Username: DrsmithMontana USA Post Number: 1501 Registered: Nov-04 | ^^ good suggestion but the HD is cheaper and will take the power just as well |
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1477 Registered: Jan-06 | good point or the HD3, i just like the look of DD better |
