Got an alarm Now. Basically I dont have an amp either, it got stolen aswell. still ridin no sound system, and rather ticked. so if you could help me find basically any sound system for 700$ and I have the box. I also have the deck still but I need a component system aswell. My normal woofers are basically blown, and tweeters suck. I want a system that basically both pounds loud, and also has good quality sound. Balanced I guess. I dont know enough about sound systems to find one myself, bu I just want my best bang for my buck. in the mean time im gonna research about sound systems. I can get my uncle to hook me yup with an awsome custom box so that is no big deal. Can also get component systems pretty cheap aswell. I appreciate the help guys

$700 can get you a good pair of 12" subs and a amp to power them. No they will not even come close to the level of performance that your Eclipse subs had but it will deliver good results for the budget.

what subs and amp though? I know there is endless answers to that question, but could you suggest a couple systems?

OK if I answer that by PM tomorrow when I am at the store? I have the Pioneer Premiere subs on sale right now in the 12" version. If we choose right we might even be able to squeeze some components in. What size?

If your looking for something along the lines of the Eclipse Ti's then look at some Tc-Sounds/AUdiopulse subwoofers.

Guys in the states are selling them all the time...

Just talked to my Uncle. He said he has a few mediocre amps for sale. He has a kicker 350.4 amp, Sony xplod 760 watts, Sony xplod 500 watts, Phoenix Gold XS2500 from 1999.

he said he will give them to me for 50% of retail price. just wondering if that would help. I dont have to buy those ones but I am providing more options for cheaper.

He's half right....I would pick either the PG or the Kicker depending on the voice coil configuration you will be using.....

The Sonys are not in the same league by a long shot.

50% off from retail on a amp that is 10 years old and the guy is your uncle? Damn, a amp that old should be free if it was from a relative.
