Hello, I'm new here. I want to put a system into my car but nothing fancy. I do want it to pound though, but nothing pricey. $500 or less. Is this possible? If so what parts. Thanks!!! [img]graemlins/bow.gif[/img]

wat kinda car you got?

looking more for loudness, or sound quality?

There are some awsome deals in the forsale section. Im sure you can find a suitable system in and around the GTA for $500.

look for gear a few years old..

deck-100
amp-$150
subs-$250

should be able to find namebrand 4-500wrms amp and 2 12s in a box that can handle it for that...

Edit: cheap 4awg at a welding shop and rcas from canadian tire should cost around $30 I would think...

Yes you should be able to find some reasonable equipment for cheap.

500$ is a reasonable budget, its very possible.

yeah man, $500 is still good for a good sounding daily driver system. Just ask lots of questions, and get lots of advise, then hunt out the for sale section lots

YES look under rocks, trade,recycle, borrow, don't steal though! I feel that deals are not to be found but to be made. i'm looking at an build in my Exporer and so for am up and running with oh $400. It won't win any real awards but will be loud and sound just great. Best of luck it's all in the hunt isn't it?

2 adire tempests: $300
deck: $100
800W amp: 200-300
CDT components (check thezeb.com i think theyre $150 for 2 6.5's and 2 tweets)

then u got (possibly): battery, alternator, deadening, wiring kit, box

If you could find a way to get all that stuff shipped to your house for $500 let me know where to get it all [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

Mazda MX-3 Precidia. I'm a sound quality guy...

Everyone else thanks for the help!
