new system to go in new car (yet to be chosen)

[eviling 10+ year member]

I have yet to pick a car yet, BUT i am replacing my car, and I plan to drop a pimping system in it, becuase i really beleive driving is just not worth it unless your rocking out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fro.gif.c695f1f814b01c4ad99fe7f8cccadd29.gif anyhow, these are the parts i've really grown quite fond of, normily when i look at parts i'm a little more causiouse but i went a little over board with these parts XD hopfully the final parts i end up getting are just as good or equiv to these. but this is just a spit ball system i've put together

starting with this deck, the eclipse mark 7200 mark II

Eclipse ECL-CD7200MKII Detachable Multi source tuner

for speaker power, i would like to go with this 150 watt rms alpine 4 channel amp

ALPINE PDX-4.150 Car Amplifier - PDX4150 - Buy.com

for sub power i'd go with this low profile class D alpine 1 channel amp

ALPINE PDX-1.1000 Car Amplifier - PDX11000 - Buy.com

and the price for that amp is amazing! asuming that sites not mislabeling it.

for sub, i'd go with a jl audio dual 4 ohm 12"

(299.95) JL AUDIO 12W6v2-D4 (12W6V2D4)

12" DUAL 4-Ohm 400W W6 Series SUBWOOFER

for speakers. I really couldn't find much that could handle that amp. i would love to go down a model but they would never handle that amp. these puppys would pump for years on that amp.

JL Audio ZR650-CSi (zr650csi) - 6-1/2" Component Systems - Sonic Electronix

well, you definitely could spend much less money on a system equivalent to that. But if money isn't an issue, looks good. If you're only getting one sub, I'd prefer a 15'' or 18''. Never really liked the sound of just one 12'' bumping.

well im really into those amps, anything else is negotiable. that deck is pretty sweet too though, can't really do much better than that XD

for the deck, i like Alpines 9887 better, might check it out if you havent already

Alpine Electronics of America, Inc.

and some people love those Alpine amps, others hate them do to how they sound

the w6v2 is a great sub. i havent heard the ZR comps, tho the XR's sound nice

Keep the amps and HU, ditch the JL overpriced crap.

For a sub, id go with a sundown z15, i believe they were on sale for like 200 shipped or something? PM sundownz on here to get some info about it. Would outdo that JL in every aspect including price.

For components, look around on ebay, i bought some of the diamond D3 comps and they sound amazing for the price, i bought the last 16 sets VMinnovations had. PG RSD components also sound good. Infinity makes good coaxial speakers for rear fill if youre looking for some.

a 12 sounds no different then a 15, or 18.

I was thinking about putiing 2 sets of compnates :| idk tehe but yeah this won't be for at least a month i'll keep the advice in mind, but yeah, the HU, and amp's are def good. i do have other stuff to work with from my old system, i have a 10" kenwood sub, with a 900 rms watt kenwood amp, some polk coaxels, and an eclipse 4 channel amp. but I was most likly just going to tear it all out (except the speakers they're pretty bad shape XD ) and jsut sell it for profits twords a new system, start with a deck. so on, so forth. another deck i was looking at though

Pioneer AVIC-X710BT (avicx710bt) - Car Stereo Head Unit In-Dash Receiver - Sonic Electronix

I really like the built in GPS, that would be really nifty XD

Not sure why anyone would want a big Double Din that didnt play DVDs. Look into the Avic F90BT. Factory Refurbs on ebay for $450.
