Hello,
I am in the process of budgeting/building my first car audio system. I need everything except a deck and a wiring kit, both of which I already have installed (Pioneer P7200HD, KnuKonceptz Kolossus). What I am wondering is how much of my money should I spend on the subs instead of speakers.
If have around a $650 budget, how much of this should go towards subs/amp and how much should go for speakers?
For instance, I could spend around $350 and get a pair of Kicker/Alpine/RF, etc subs, box, and amp. This would leave me around $300 to get 4 really nice speakers and a speaker amp. Or, I could spend around $300 just on one sub, which would leave me $350 for a sub box, sub amp, and speakers.
What's going to give me better SQ? Also, components vs full range speakers? This is going into a '98 Jeep Cherokee.
Thanks!
Matt
