[QUOTE="Z3n, post: 8143009, member: 635455"] Alright, I'll take a look at Dayton subs as well. I'm fine with upping my budget if it means getting something a bit better. I half-assed it on my original setup with two 12s and a sketchy amp, so I'd rather not do that again. Like I said, I learned the hard way that I should have spent more and done it better the first time. I'll keep an eye on the classifieds here -- I think I saw a nice Phoenix Gold amp for $200, and I just looked at an Arc Audio as well for $200. I don't really know what some good SQ amps are, so I could use some guidance there. I'm going to be doing that fiberglass box in the corner, but that's a separate expense. So right now I'm just focusing on what a decent SQ setup will cost me. I'm also redoing most of my wiring right now, which is also a separate budget. I'm looking to use all KnuKonceptz wire for power and ground, and then just get some wire from weldingsupply for my Big 3 Upgrade. I'm also getting new speaker wire, probably [URL="http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KRD12BL"]KnuKonceptz Kord UltraFlex[/URL] 12 gauge unless there's something better I can get for around the same price point. I'm not 100% sure what I'm going to do for RCA cables, that's what I'd like some suggestions on. As well as wire upgrades, I'm planning on fully deadening my car with products from Sound Deadener Showdown. I've taken all my measurements and hope to email Don in the near future to get that all figured out. I want to do that as well as I can, so I hope he can help and get me the best plan for my car. That alone should help with sound quality and just overall noise quality and quietness in the cabin. [/QUOTE]
