Kevin M Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Worked on mine for over a year and just got it done. Other things always get in the way. Like having to buy a lawnmower (power assist ftw) and refrigerator for a new house or replacing a sensor in your expedition because the transmission just started to act wonky and go 5 miles an hour in drive. lol I have to keep reminding myself to stay the course and be patient. It will get done even if it's not as timely as I like. I can tell you it's a hell of a lot easier to do this at 35 then it was at 25. haha Quote 2005 Ford Focus zx4 AMT's and Planars 18" Infinite baffle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullz Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 So many people try to start to big instead of building on what they have. First thing to do is get a good H/U that your happy with that will last a few years. Next on the to do list is the front stage and get it to where your happy with as far as power and sound quality cause you can do those with little to no upgrade in electrical outside of the big 3, also the front stage is the most overlooked part of many peoples system and seems to be an after thought on what to do after dropping most of a budget on the subs and sub amps. Finally after your to a point where your happy with everything else then get some subs and amp as a temp setup with small power to hold you over till you can do it as big as you need to cause buying gear to sit in a room and not use any part of your warranty is foolish and wasteful cause in the event you ever need it by the time you do use it it may be out of warranty or close to ending.

I started small and my plans have grown over the years. I had a mostly complete small system when I bought my truck back in 98. then my plans grew, Had a good H/U until it got wrecked when some dumbass's tried to steal it and took an amp. Before I knew what the BIG 3 was, I was already doing it. Already own a HO alt for stuff electric fans. I have bought a lot of equipment that has just never been installed. All warranties expired. Stuff like crate motor installs take precedence and stage 3 tranny's. And the biggest time vacuum ever is women. they never want to know you'd rather build a sub box or glass your doors instead of spending time with them.
