Help with budget setup

[StateSoccer9]

I just recently got a 2002 gmc envoy and am looking for a budget bass system to go along with it. I have never purchased a sub system before, so i really have no idea what to look for. I personally am not really looking for subs that will hit extremely hard, i just want some crisp good bass to add to my car. I am trying to keep my budget under $350, so im really just looking for an entry level system....currently i have the following deck installed http://www.crutchfield.com/p_110V9312HD/Jensen-VM9312HD.html?tp=448

I was on crutchfield and saw these due to the price of them http://www.crutchfield.com/p_70012BLUEX/Dual-Bass-Package.html?tp=442

Any suggestions would be a great help.

I doubt that enclosure puts out good or crisp bass...

are you talkin $350 for subs and enclosure, or $350 for subs, enclosure, amp, wire etc.

if you are on a budget don't buy from crutchfield, they sell at retail

buy used or at some other discount vendor

First off. Welcome to another Michigander!!! lol.

Second. As said above, you want sub, amp, enclosure, wire... all for 350? or what do you want for 350?

I have to say, type R's are the ultimate budget sub, they get loud, and only run about $110 or so. For an amp. Youll need something in the 600rms+ range. Maybe a Refurb Directed 1200watt amp or something. Buy good used equipment before you buy shitty new stuff. For a wiring kit, youll be fine with a 4awg knukonceptz amp kit for like $30.

Fvck it ill link all the stuff for you :

Or if your looking for something with more SQ, id get an IDq. You can get em used for a reasonable price.

that's a nice starter setup for ya. maybe you can get the 15" version. you can also look at the RE SE. It can be hadd for about $120 and there's a couple people tryin to sell em for cheap on here.
