[QUOTE="DidUHearThat?, post: 6371174, member: 594758"] For really cheap get a set of coaxial speakers and install them in mdf boxes. If they are car speakers, usually 4 ohm, you will need a reciever that can drive a 4 ohm load like the onkyo reciever I mentioned before, or wire 2 pairs in parallel to achieve an 8 ohm load. Which will also give you twice the power handling ability and twice the hearing damage, but at twice the cost. Or find an 8 ohm coaxial speaker with decent power handling. Add a sub plate amp and a 15" sub in a decent vented box and you'd have a cheap but loud system. These coaxials are only $20 each, $40 a pair. Or get 2 pair ($80) for an easy 8 ohm load and twice the hearing damage. Still leaves you plenty in your budget for reciever, plate amp, sub, and MDF. Cover the speakers with black grill cloth and no one will know what they are. Let people think you spent a fortune on them.
