Most with the least

Tell me about the best set you've had with the least amount of equipment.

My all time favorite setup that I had was one that I took design que's from Richard Clark's award winning Grand National. It was nowhere near as complex but the concept was the same.

I had an 1981 Chev Monte Carlo, in the dash I had a set of Lanzar 3 1/2" coaxials and in the trunk a pair of Lanzar LP12's, that was it for the speakers and for power there was a PPI Art Series A404, the h/u was a Pioneer keh-p7000 cassette deck and in the trunk the matchin 12disc changer, the only eq was the bass, mid, and treble control in the h/u and this setup sounded awesome. Sound quality was incredible and the bass was tight and it still hit hard and would drop low when needed.

Mind you this was also in 1992 when Lanzar was still Lanzar and the LP series and the 3 1/2" where their top end drivers. Hell if I remember correctly the LP12's were both rated at 101db 1watt/1meter. Those were the good ole days hahahahah...everybody tell me about your old setups //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Ok ok ok so I'm somewhat fossellized //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif but it's more about what's the best setup you've done with the least amount of equipment not the oldest, it just so happens that mine was done a little ways back in time and since then everything I've built has been with multiples of everthing seems like, come on Mark_ab contribute to my little trend.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I haven't done anything simple, really. The cheapest system that I made that had the best imaging and staging cost about 600 bucks, all things said and done.

Pioneer DEH P7400MP, Clarion APA4140, Clarion APA1200, Adire Shiva, JVC 6X9's, Ultimate 6.5" component set. This went into a 1993 Olds 88. The tweeters aren't amazing, nor is the midbass, but for how much it costs it sounds great at moderate volumes. Wide stage, good height.

OK

Heres my best HU was a Pioneer KEH-1500

Pioneer 2 way 6x9's

pioneer 2 way 4" tweeters

Legacy LA-360 amp into a Jensen 8" sub in a bass cannon

All in my truck

Not to shabby and with not a lot of $ Bass tubes rock

Check my sig.

210 watts total. Less than some decks claim. I did pay a little more though than some people, $800 with kickpanel installation. Sound is amasing. Fits my taste perfectly. A 30 band EQ or two and I'm done.
