[QUOTE="ChefJoe, post: 128635, member: 546209"] $200 for a sub and an amp? Better off saving for a while. You'd need a wiring kit and box too ya know. If you're going to do this, you'll want to lay down a fat wire so that you never have to lay down a new one. I only have a single sub and I ran a 4 gauge wire to the back with distro blocks on the off chance I might replace the stock speakers. I bought an RF dual amp kit for $115 from thezeb.com. You can buy raw materials for much less than that, but you'd still spend $50 on the wires from what I hear. You may want to read up here and figure out what sort of box and speaker you want, then spending some money on building your box (after you've decided what you're oign to get and figured out the specs) while you save up. Also, when it comes to amps, you can never have too much power. I hate to say it, but after you go through the trouble of mounting an amp, if you decide to add another speaker, you'll wish you'd bought the next model up. Get an amp with an RMS equal to or slightly above the highest RMS your selected speaker has so that you can add/have the option to add a second sub without problem later. [/QUOTE]
