[QUOTE="Kickstand, post: 8742926, member: 681842"] The spare tire is behind the seats right? For $4000 in that car I would suggest 2 10's and if your looking at a crossover then an active 2 way setup in the doors However with what you want 4 k is not a lot of cash Some of these prices are just ballpark So 300-400 for an alt. You would need an AGM battery to go with it $300 You want to do the better part of the car sound deadener that's like $500 Say another $200-300 in wires On that car the Big 3 is a necessity. HU- Something with at least 3 4volt pre outs $300-400 Now here is where you can save some money. If you can build and install a lot of this yourself then your ahead of the game. Subs...In a small cab like that you don't need to run 2000 watt subs Don't do the down facing thing. It works in home audio but seldom in cars. Some have pulled it off but for the most part the subs do not play up to their potential. Ported box is a must A couple of 750-1000 watts subs should do just fine...If they are in the right box. To be honest @ $159.00 each the Soundqubed HDS 3.2 Dual 4 10" is a really good deal So is the American Bass XFL 1022 at $230 each As for an Amp to run them The Sundown Audio SFB-2000 will do 2000watts @ 1 ohm and is less than $300 Front speakers are one of those things where everyone has different taste so it just depends on the user. Generically I would say look at JBL or Infiniti Some of the midrange Hertz stuff is ok as well As for an amp to run them I would keep it in the family and go with a Sundown (looks so purdy that way) The SFB 200.4 should work and its like $220. Audio Control crossover, If you run an active setup then you need a decent one but you could always add it latter to save some money and just go passive until them Either way your looking at $300. If you can build it your self you will save $300-400 on the sub box. Its only like $100-$150 in materials. I know you talked about 3" in the dash and stuff but if your running a budget then start small and add to it later. 6.5's with tweeters up front in a 2 seater car will be plenty loud. [/QUOTE]
