[QUOTE="SirPudge, post: 8257133, member: 660852"] Sorry for delay on reply. Was busy with work and other faggotry. I already knew/know the difference between rms and peak... One website I went to claimed 2k as the boss' RMS. It's Amazon says otherwise now that I actually look. And please never assume I'd use a 600 watt amp as a 2k. I may be new, but I pick up quick and know when something doesn't sound right. I was there every step of the way when my cousin destroyed his 15's. He blew them to hell, had a **** box. I had little intention of buying the boss in the first place, was providing it as a reference point/ place to go from.[End mini-rant] My local friend is going to buy my 12's and amp for 400. This leaves my current "budget"(which I've never been good about sticking to) at around $800. Assuming I go with the 2200(new at $430), that leaves $370 for sub and other upgrades. Another $330(base price. Do I need the extra cooling options? I will be using it as a daily driver. If so which ones?) for the sub leaves $40 for other stuff. I am getting paid shortly which will bump it to at least $200(****** hours recently) Any help you could provide in finding a used 2200 would be awesome. I am pretty terrible at browsing the classifieds here. If I get that for 300 shipped, I would then have enough for an alt and hopefully workable wiring until another check/ money falls from the sky. Also any suggestions on where to buy an alt would be cool. Is that something I go to a local auto shop for? I am willing to buy things in sets, like doing the electrical stuff first, then waiting a month and buying the rest. Or maybe electrical and sub, then next month do amp and whatever else. [/QUOTE]
