Sheena Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) well i have worked out the figures, and it looks like i have $150 to spend on car audio. i already have 2 skar 12"s in a box with a BRZ1200 wired 1 ohm with 4 gauge wire. what i dont have is.. H/O Alt Upgraded Batt Sound Deadener 1/0 Head Unit i wont be buying anything for a front stage just yet, so no tweeters, mids, etc. there are minimal rattles at max volume (and by minimal i mean they dont bother me) EDIT: i realize some of the stuff i posted is out of the price range, but i will save up to get them. My first choice was 20 sq ft of alpha damp by Second Skin, but what do you guys think?

TeamHT Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Headunit. Then the big 3. Then a battery. Then damplifier Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheena Posted December 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Well I guess if you don't have a headunit. That might be a good idea. i have a line level converter on the stock radio, but i have been seriously considering a HU for better eq controls over my equipment.

AI James Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Headunit then quality fronts, looking at the amp you have with quality wiring you should be fine without a HO alt for quite some time. that 500 plus on an alt would pay for a pretty nice HU and maybe even some other items that you do need.

Sheena Posted December 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 alright, HU it is then. to avoid this turning into a VS thread, is there someone i could message about a single din? my reasoning for single din is that i never liked double din or a touch screen really.. while im driving i rather have a knob to twirl than a series of menus to navigate.
