Need help deciding on subs and amp!!

[etm34 10+ year member]

But in this particular instance I did, because the OP said that's all he needed.

i know i said that but i need the whole shabang for around $500. and $500 is getting into my danger zone thats why i said i would like it for $400. but i still would like to know ppls opinions of th ep2's, p3, and type r. im just wondering, cuz from what ive read people just promote their products on here..... i would like an opinion if thats ok, and thank you all for helping so much!

As I said a couple posts back; Buy the Arc amplifier if you do nothing else I said. You'll be getting an amplifier that once sold for $500+ at around half that price and 10 years down the road it'll still be nice as hell.

It wouldn't be beyond reason to get the Arc amp and a pair of the RWE's for now either. You can always get another one later. And that's what I'm really trying to sell here. There's no reason to blow your entire budget on mediocre equipment right now when you can get a few nice pieces and finish things off at a later date. Patience is a virture, man, and if you do as I'm saying you'll end up with equipment you can be proud of owning.

- The Rockford Fosgate subwoofers are nothing to write home about.

- The Type R is a capable driver and will get loud in the right conditions.

For the record, I don't stand to make a dime no matter what you buy. I'm simply trying to point you in the right direction. If you buy an entry level Crunch amplifier and a single 12" SSA Dcon you'll have nothing special. If you decide to purchase the Arc FD and a group of the RWE 8"s, you'll not only have quality equipment, but it'll be something out of the norm.

a box will cost maybe 25 at the most to build and what deadening does he need for 600 watts?

deadning is what lets the sound come through the speakers. and don't pick on bob. he's gonna be mod soon.

I live in a rural area. I couldn't turn a profit running a shop. Noone else has ever made a dime running a shop in this area either, and many have tried.

However, I take care of my friend's vehicles, and I'm known all around as the guy to go to if you want a stereo in your car.
