There have been threads where everyone posts pics of their systems, but I thought it would be interesting to see what everybody has and what it cost you....... lets see who found some good deals Pics not necessary here, I'll start:
Digital Designs 9515f $450 Box from Canaan $300 American Bass VFL-200.1 3000w amp $500 Alpine MRP-F550 250w x 2 amp $220 CDT HD-52 components $350 JVC KD-AR880 HU $150 DB Electrical HO alternator $210 Odyssey 1500 battery $220 Wire and installation accessories ~$200
And countless hours out in the garage....... priceless. Kerosene for the heater during those countless hours..... unknown

pioneer 5800 - 179.00 type r 6.5 comps - 220.00 hifonics bxi2006d - 350.00 dd9515d - 275.00 alpine mrv-450 - 250.00 dunno how much i spent for wiring, prolly too much.
Dwight how do those components sound, and what else have you heard to compare them to?
This is one reason I did this, to find out what equipment is the best value for the money based on user reviews. I am skeptical that an $87 set of speakers can sound real good, but if they do that's a great deal. If we ever get this northeast meetup going I want to hear those......
still got some of my 'old' stuff being used til now

Not sure really, if the price was right I would sell one for sure, as I can't fit 2 in my car. I just got a rediculous deal on two. They each have all the wires (RCA's, power) and the silver input box (rectangle) with multiple ins and outs for hooking up tons of stuff.
I live in Canada so shipping cross border isn't friendly.
