ANyone think this is a good setup for a beginner? what do you guys think i should get with that sub? I went to a local Audio store and they wanted $485 for the sub amp with a vented box plus installation.

If you already have the amp then you need to shop around for a different sub and box. Get to know a lot of people on this forum because theres some great box builders here and you can get some great deals on subs. 800 watts is pretty **** good for a newbie to car audio. Sh!t, I've been around car audio for almost ten years and I'm only running a 300 watt amp to my sub and it's more than enough for now.

Thx .. but i havent got anything. I wanted the people of CarAudio.com to tell me their opinions to this setup and what would you recommend.

oh yeah .. i drive a 2001 Corolla .. so i think the sub is enough for my car. I wanna know what others think about the amp, sub, box etc.

I would recommend running SoundStream because I've never had a problem with them and there old school amps are the best imo. Some of there newer stuff is great also. But thats just me and thats the company I have always ran with. Hell I got a nice SS 15 inch sub on ebay and in the classifieds section only used for 3 months. Look around, view some threads and listen to what people say.

Good luck! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Okay .. the most i will spend right now is about $500 for the system .. other than that i really dont want to go any higher. I know a nice sound system will cost me $800 to 1000 but i honestly dont wanna spend that much for a newbie.

Alpine type R is your best bet to eat that 800 watts up for the cheapest price possible...
