Hey guys i tahnk you for all your help in advance.

I am shopping around looking for a system for my rsx. My budget is not huge but i have been shooping around on ebay and have found some things that seem like great deals.

I have herd alot of bad things about the Kicker L7 such as bad quality and SQ. this said i can get it for cheap and power it with this amp which i could also get for very cheap. http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=14933

Honestly how would this sound. I am young and just really want somethign that will pound very hard. As far as the sound quality goes when people say it is bad how bad do they mean. Like will it be greatly noticable or will it just be somethign that a true SQ guru would point out. Thanks alot for your advice.

When you get a Kicker L7 you have to be careful with those subs.They blow fairly easily unless you're careful.Let us know your budget please because we can get you something that might not be quite as loud but it will sound much cleaner and still provide enough output for you.

well my budget is fairly unclear right now. I was looking at that L7 for around 185 which didn't seem like a bad deal.

I would really like to use the amp that i mentioned above unless you guys think that its crap and would not be able to dish out the power it says it can.

If i could use that amp i could spend anywhere from 100 to about 300 just for the sub, i can build my own box so that will not be an issue.

Im looking at only one sub due to the fact that i still want some storage room. Either a 12" or a 15" would be ideal. As far as how much i want to spend on the amp, i am not really sure. I was hoping to maybe find a lucky deal or a good sale on ebay or the internet and get something powerfull for around 200 dollars. And yes the RSX is a hatchback.

what is the deal with kenwood amps. They seem to dish out alot of power without a big price tag. Worth considering?

Thanks alot for all your advice it has been great and really cleared my mind.

about those Audioque's how loud will that 15" get compared to the 15' type r and what about its sound quality. Also i had some trouble finding a site to buy it from. If anyone could throw that up i would really appreciate it.
