Hey folks,
With festival season just around the corner I've decided to finally get a sound system so we can bump tunes in the campsite and have a little after party area. I've never had one before so it's all new to me I've been doing research for the past month or so, just kind of figuring out the basics.
I've got a 1990 Dodge Islander motorhome which I have a solar panel rig going in soon so I'm hoping to get both installed at the same time. I came here for some guidance.
I'm able to get most things at cost but here is what I am thinking.
H/U - Pioneer DEH-X9500BHS
Front and Rear Speakers- Pioneer TS-D1720C 6.75
Subwoofer- 10W3v3-2
Amplifer- Apline MRX-V70
I don't have time to install it myself so I was hoping to buy the above and head to a shop. I've been told I need an amp kit, dash kit, speaker wires, etc so I will be looking into those. I was hoping to get the shop to make an enclosure for my sub and keep the price of equipment, custom enclosure and installation for under $2000. I've heard $50 a piece is a fair price for installation but the front tweeters will have to be custom mount so I can see it being a bit extra.
Sound deadening I'm not too familiar with, thinking the front speakers in the doors will need some, rear speakers are in wood book like cabinets.
I'm not sure how power works but I have my main cranking battery for ignition/charging the house batteries and with the solar unit I will have 2x AGM 6v batteries wired in series to make a 12V. Lifeline Batteries - Marine & RV Deep Cycle Batteries
If anyone has any suggestions, both my ears are open.
So with the equipment I have listed I think I can get iot all for under $1000
Then the custom enclosure and installation price, and he gear I haven't looked into as I'm still not sure what I need (dash kit, wiring harness, amp kit, etc) I'm hoping to keep that under $1000 as well.
Sound possible?
