Is This A Good Deal? New To Audio Systems

[ngcarabajal 10+ year member]

So I dont know anything about systems. This guy said he would hook me up with

2 - 600 watt amp from Hi fonics. I believe titans

2 - 12" inch sub woofers and box

2 - 6 1/2" alpine speakers for front (Alpine)

2 - 9" speakers for back (Alpine)

1 - Stereo that controls and charges my I Phone

All this and labor would cost me $1200. I wanted to know if this is a good deal and if I could later on add stuff when I come up with the cash. Also if you can come up with a better set up I'm only really looking to spend $1200 - $1300.

also what is the best website to buy from?

well how much should i be asking? it includes all the wiring and bolting down. so you gotta think about that in the price.

Best thing to do is learn that ish on your own....shops have crazy labor quotes! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

Price is high. Also didnt' mention what subs, they could be garbage.
