Thanks for the advice.

I guess i'll just have to deal with my shitty system.

Sarcasm?

no. why would you think sarcasm? one of the winningest sq cars of all time (buick regal btw) uses one set of gti comps as the entire mid and high section. Were you being a douche?

Nope not being a douche! I just didn't know that about them!

Thank-You for the info man

run 2 sets of the pioneer PRS componets. for 450 total you would be hard pressed to find a single set that does what they do. Buy one set even and give them a try, they resell pretty decent used on here. good luck.

So DD won't get back to me on pricing on their components

Does anybody know how much they cost?

Wait a little longer and save up a little more, and just do it once, and do it right. Why spend "a little" money now, when you'll probably end up spending more down the road to get what you really want?

He might be satisfied with less, and knowing he got a good value for his money.

Your system isn't shitty till you make it that way. I agree with headless-you spent all your money on subs and want a great front stage without spending any money.This won't happen. I see more and more threads just like this and it's frustrating.You should pick up something inexpensive for now and save up for a front stage to equal your sub stage. You will be so much happier in the long run.I speak from experience and I mean no disrespect.When I was 14 I was into dirt bikes(still am even though I am an old man) and I worked at the high school for 2 years and saved all my paychecks in my tool box and got my bike.So I commend you for saving as I know how hard it is.I wish you the best of luck with your system.

Actually, you and I have probably spent about the same amount on our stereos - you just spent all of your money on subwoofers, whereas I spent an equal amount on each. Why are you acting like 1300$ components (BTW, 1300 is MSRP, they are less than that in reality) are insanely expensive and outside of your league when you spent 2 grand on subs already? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif That's my point. 1 set of power line CS would cost as much as ONE of your subwoofers - but you get 2 woofers, 2 tweeters AND 2 crossovers. I'd say 4 badass speakers and 2 crossovers is worth as much as a single nice sub any day - but I'm not looking for a 150db system, i'm looking for a stereo for playing music that sounds good.

If you want to trade priorities for subwoofers, then that's fine - just don't expect your 300$ components running on 100watts/side to keep up with 2000$ of subs at full tilt.

I have two sets of Boston Pro 60s. Both are used. I'd part with one set for $150 shipped if you have paypal. Speakers sound great or I wouldn't have a set in two of my vehicles. I cracked a head on my truck and will probably be parting the truck out.

My subs were $1400 for both, found a good deal on some awesome subs and impulsively made a bad move. Didn't think about components, and like I previously stated, was a bad mistake //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Q: Did you buy your Rainbows local to you or online? If online would you mind informing me where?
