MarcoCaparrotta Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Hey everyone, so im planning on buying a large amount of tweeters, mids/ highs, and about 3 subs, but I was just wondering what I need to power it. Not including those things, I have a $300 budget. I really don't want to spend more than that. Any suggestions on what I can get with that? Do i need amps, mixers, receivers ect. thanks.

BeAlLsTaR13 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 A 300$ budget deffintaly will not get you what you want, well of you want to do it properly, planning on running HT amps or car amps? Prolly gonna run you 300$ or more just to set up a power supply for car amps+ the price of the amps, and HT amps get VERY expensive The receiver I have in my house alone was 450$ Team Sundown Audio**CURRENT** -- 2012 Scion tC Build Click Here **OLD** -- 2002 Pontiac Grand AM Build Click Herecheck them out, slap me a comment2002 Pontiac Grand AM SE 2.2l 4 cylinder ecotec.-------------------------------------------------------------------Head Unit - Alpine CDA-9887Subs - 2x Z 12 v.2s - v.3 + NS Soft partsAmplifier - Sundown Audio SAZ-3500DEnclosure - 3.33 Cubes tuned to 34.66hzFront Stage - JBL P660c 6.5" ComponentsRear Deck - Powerbass 4xl 6.5" Mid-RangeFront Stage Amplifier - Sundown Audio SAX-100.4DWires - Kicker Hyperflex 1/0, KnuKonceptz 1/0, Knu 4 and 8 Gauge, Kicker RCAsElectrical - 275 AMP DC Power H/O Alternator, XS Power S3400, XS Power D2700Videos - http://www.youtube.com/user/BeAILsTaR13------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cashdollar2009 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Could just run the car amp off of a 12V battery with a trickle charger on it. Won't get a 14+ V charge so just be smart. A marine battery with a high AH rating and large reserve should do you fine for around $100.00 - $120.00. What I will tell you though is when I ran an old school 15" on about 500wrms I didn't want to push anything to much and I was in the freshman dorms I put the sealed box inside my large sliding door closet, it acted basically as a large 4th order bandpass and got considerably louder. So if you won't be running too much power, basically a single 12V, try to stuff the subs in your closet or something allowing them to pressurize the smaller space. For $300.00 though, you'd basically have enough to buy a decent 12V power cell, a small mono-block, and most of a small 4-channel. No speakers. No subwoofers. No wood. Nothing else. Gonna need a bigger budget. On 6/30/2011 at 1:11 AM, 'Ray' said: Acoustical energy is free. Electrical energy is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
