Bass4Lyfe Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 So I'm looking for a sub / amp system for like $1000 bucks max for my new car. I'd obviously love to have 2 Fi BTL's 18s pushed by some nice RF amps but I'm not there financially yet. It's gotta bump hard .. I'm thinking 2 15s or something .... ideas? remember, this is w/o h/u, speakers, etc ... just for the sub system thx Quote ~Matthew 1998 Toyota Camry XLE V6 3L (1) ScyTek Astra 4000RS-2W-1 2-Way Remote Start Alarm with Shock and Proximity (1) 20% Tint All Around (Gately Audio) (1) 250 Amperage HO Alternator (1) Big 3 Done In 1/0 (2) Kinetik HC2400 Power Cell (1) Alpine IVA-D106 Receiver (1) Peripheral Video Bypass Device (4) Alpine SPS-17C2 Speakers (1) Alpine KCE-422i iPod Control Interface (4) Sheets Dynamat Extreme; for speakers (1) 10 Square Feet Hushmat (Trunk & Rear Deck) (4) DC Audio Level 4 15" D2 Subwoofer w/ Level 5 Coils (1) Wall Built By David, Tuned to 32 Hz (1) Rockford Fosgate T40001bd Amplifier (1) Stinger 1/0 Wiring (2 runs of + 2 runs of -) (1) Stinger Volt Meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cichlidfort Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 well your not going to turn to many heads with a 1000 dollar set up but it can be done id sell you my old set up but i dont have it any more hey wait a min a fully loaded fi is only like 5 shiped and then spend 5 on an amp ! Ha, I turned a lot of heads when I just had my L7 15 and that was only like a 600 dollar setup. For a thousand bucks, I would go with two L7 15s or a fully loaded BTL.

Forevrbumpn Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 ofcourse it will, so will 4- Memphis M3 15s ;-) Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

Torres Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 (edited) if you look in the right places, you can buy brand new stuff on ebay. i think that's where i'm gonna end up gettin my alpine head unit. an 18" btl will hit hard. but the space required would be the hard part. it's in a trunk camry maybe? if i remember from your other post. plus the power required to push it will put you over your 1k mark. depending on the options you choose with it anyways. a 15" would be easier to fit and would be closer to your budget EDIT: actually i think there might be some 18" btl's for sale round here. used but cheap. check the for sale thread if you wanna try to fit an 18" Edited December 19, 2007 by ExpoSport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
