[blockquote]And you want it all for $500?


Go away. [&:] [/blockquote]
My budget is $500, any suggestions? Keep in mind I get like 30% to 40% off anything MTX, alpine, sony, etc.
Read the whole thing before you act like a jackass. By the way...your sig says, "cobras are for men", so why don't you gosell it? Ok little buddy?[&:]
I boughtan MTX 12" and250watt amp...for $100...

A freind mademe box so that setup is good enough as far as a little bass goes.

Preal, thats exactly what I plan to do, next is going to be a 4 channel amplifier and I already have the Polk DBs. My HU has a sub control so I think I'm good on that right but there's an alpine (AlpineCDA9857)I'm gonna switch to sooner or later.

What would you suggest? Have you actually heard one powered by the 1000W?

Chris,

If you already have the polk db 6500 components with the separate 6.5 mids, tweeters and crossovers, power them with around 100 watts perside. If you don't get those or the momo comps. You need2 not 4 channel.

If you have rear speakers, sell them, throw them away, or send them to me for free to blow up. Anyone that has a knowledge of car audio will tell you rear fill is pointless. The key to a good sounding stereo is a great front stage and a little subwoofer. Ideally, you should not "hear" the sub when listening to regular music, it should blend in perfectly with the fronts.

Parker

Now to jgorm, JL: is nice but increadible overpriced and could be destroyed in sq and spl by any number of other drivers for the same price. If thats what you like and you have an extended experience in car audio thats great, but most people buy JL becuase thier local shop says its the best, not from experience or expertise.

You mean someone sold your straight trash for $100? Wow, congratulations, you rule the world. Cobra's are for men, get a good outlook on it, i'm sorry you don't have the knowledge of forseeing that. I won't even begin to laugh at you, if that's you in the aviator.


BAHAHAHAH

Yes, I have, as I used to have a 12" w7, but I ran mine off a Memphis 1100.1 Class D. It's nothing bro. Go out, look around, see who has better offers, purchase them, be happy.

Hiss, why is it that everytime I see you post, you are ridiculing someone? I asked a question, I was looking for some useful input, not some smartmouthed remark from a goofy looking16-17 year oldprep (your posts on the pic thread are hilarious) and I can assure you I get Waaaay more action then you. I was gonna repost the pic of you here but it looks like you deleted it or something after someone already laughed at it, ha.[sm=loser.gif]

I don't have rich parents so I pay for my own car and college, right now, an insane sounding system to show off to my little buddys so I can say, "look what a badass I am!" isn't my goal and just isn't practical. I just want something that sounds decent...and this sounds good to me...for what I want.If this isn't good enough for you, then tell me some other options or what youwould do within this budget instead of flaming me. Understood?

Just buy these: http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=4119or http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=4130.

Good speakers and you get a discount. Throw away the rears.

And power them with this:

Thanks Preal. I was acually looking at getting those speakers for the front! But I think I'll stick with what I have, and we accually do have that alpine amp at my work ,I'll have to check the price on it. I'm getting adecent check next week so I may have enough.

Do the 6.5s really cound alot better then the oval 5x7s?
