Need a new system ($1000 Budget)

[KingTone 10+ year member]

My homeboy just bought a new car, and he has about a $1000 budget to put together a system. If you guys could kick a brotha a favor and put together a solid $1000 system, I'd appreciate it.

Ok, well what do you mean by system? Headunit, component amp, components, subwoofer amp, subwoofer, wires.....what?!

It's going into a 2001 Civic.

He needs a headunit, amp, sub, and speakers.

I don't think he has a preference on brand or anything.

Lol In-Dash + 6x9s doesnt really make a system.

Ok, well I would suggest you look into some Panasonic h/u, they have great function, are good for budget and look pretty nice too.

Speakers- check out some CDT components, Diamond audio, Focal for front components.

Speaker amp- Something along the lines of Profile 2ch. Or Crossfire make some nice speaker amps for the money.

(4ch. if you want rear speakers wich really are not needed.)

Subwoofer- Incriminator Audio 187's (low-hz.com)

Sub amp- anything that can give an rms of 300 per woofer.

Lol Bri...Actually I dunno what your selling your stuff for but it's some nice equipment to look into, if your comfortable buying used. I just listed new stuff that would fit your budget and be pretty good quality at the same time.

Total - about $750. That leaves you 250 dollars which is plenty enough for a custom enclosure. Build it yourself and you can have about 200 extra bucks to spend on wiring and mounting accessories, or however you want. Put the sub in about 2 cubes tuned to 32-34 hertz and it should get pretty loud. This would all come together to be a REALLY solid system, especially for 750 bucks.
