I'd have to build my own box, or buy a box for this one.

Or suggest your own setup, preferred from online stores.

I'm trying to put this in a 93' subaru impreza

For budget..

Get a used hifonics bxi1206?

They do about 1000w at 1 ohm.

Find either a used q, RLP, tc-9, or something similar.

and find a used head unit that you like.

Should run you about 500 bucks.

let us know what type of setup you want (sq, sql, or spl) then we will be able to help you out more.

You'll be very, very dissapointed with that setup.

I'd buy used if you're on a budget.

sub- http://www.soundsplinter.com/rli10_subwoofer_information.html (175+shipping)

amp- http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/4353 (125+shipping)

HU- http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=17375 (70+shipping)

That should put you around 400. Search around the forum and learn how to build a box for the sub and that should be a nice little starter system.

So bandpass boxes aren't good?

 

[DejaWiz 5,000+ posts]

With around $400 for a HU, sub, and sub amp, I'd look towards the following:

HU: Pioneer Premier DEH-P390MP $128 shipped w/install accessories

Sub Amp: Hifonics BXi606D $175 shipped

Sub: Kicker 07 CVR122 $119 shipped

TOTAL: $422

The HU has 3 sets of preouts with separate sub control plus a front aux input.

The amp will do about 550-580w rms at 1 ohm.

Wire the sub at 1 ohm, put it in about a 1.25-1.5cf sealed box with 25-33% volume of loose polyfill and you're good to go.

No, I would steer clear of them. Build your own ported box and you won't be dissappointed.

Are kenwood subs decent?

[mabel4life 10+ year member]

they are ok, but they won't outperform the 10" rl-i i suggested for you or the CVR that dejawiz suggested.

 

[pyoung9 10+ year member]

So you'd go with one sub instead of the two in that auction?

Thanks for all the help
