1 Grafdale Sub in a sub box for 60$ obo

Any of these good deals?
I only contacted the guy with the deck so far because 50$ obo is pretty cheap for a new deck!
Just remember if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. LOL I can't comment on any of those deals, BUT I personally would never buy anything that says Sony on it EVER.

I would proceed with caution on deals like those... Not trying to bad mouth the seller, but typically those kind of deals don't work out well for anyone but the seller. Big Red Guy has given you some very solid advice. If I had the patience I would have said the same things. Spend a bit of time reading, if that's not your gig, hit the road and stop at some shops to demo the equipment. Be prepared before you pay up

Sony's Mobile audio line up sucks.go to Canadian Tire and try it or your self.lol

i would suggest Alpine for a Cd/dvd player.they have a good size verity offering a wide range of prices.

as for subs/speakers/amps/wiring it all comes down to how much money you want to spend and how you like to listen to music.

Feel free to pm me im in dartmouth i could probably help you get good gear for a much better price then youll find down in NFL.i can meat you in CB if you want to jump on the boat.
