Best Sub, Amp, and Enclosure on a $150 budget?

Can't go over that amount, what is the best I can get for $150?

And this would have to also include cables and stuff as I'd be installing them.

for $150 you really aren't getting anything worth it.

i would suggest saving your money like $300-$500

if you only have $150 i would get some new speakers

I already bought 4 component speakers and I am on a tight budget, I can't spend $300

for $150 I can sell you a 15" sub with a small mono block amp.

well you are going to have a pretty basic system then, if that. you will have to build your own box and find a used sub and amp on the classifieds here. $150 doesnt give you a lot of room for a sub, amp and box.

agreed. craigslist is you best bet. not sure if you can get used wiring, but you could try e-bay for it. wiring is a bit expensive, but on a 150 budget you wont have to worry about running too many watts. you could use 8 gauge wire for your batt-amp and ground. 12-16 gauge speaker wire. RCA cable... not too expensive. also the radio wire to power your amp.

you should budget your money well... $50 for a sub... $50 for amp.... $50 for wiring

you should just wait and save up a little more money. it'll be worth it.

I'd say if you buy everything used you might be near that budget.. Check the classifieds here

I'm inclined to agree with everyone else, I cheaped out on my first system few years ago and you always end up sinking more money into it. Wait until you can do it right or don't spend your money on it at all.
